We all change, we move on
friends are like swings and roundabouts sometimes, they come, they go
and, one day invariably they return.
We all have to learn to ride the blows, and to go with the flow so to speak
I know this is full of cliches
but I guess it isat I am your friend
and yes, we have had our moments
our arguments and misunderstandings
but
I am here
and you are here
and we are still the same people
hugs and kisses my dear friend
Blue love, I don't know if you argue with half as many people as you do me. But I do know that I can count on your return, even if you don't speak to me for a week or two.

rosylady said:sitting here wondering what happened to all the "friends" I have or had. I understand people have real lives and such, but if one is suppose to be a very good friend, wouldn't you expect them to at least say good bye to you or contact you once in awhile and say hi if you are still friends. Not just ignore you when you log in to yahoo or msn. Or ignore you on the boards. I don't get people sometimes.
Sorry for the rant.
This was the first thread I saw after coming back. When I left lots of people said they would write and keep me in their prayers. I felt quickly forgotten and it was so sad to see how my thread just died, my handel diamondjim69 was lost and my e-mails on lit locked away and lost. Bitter Cold weather and a cold home coming.
Sorry for MY rant

You trust yourself, and your intuition. Not everyone who says they are your friend will truly be so. On here, in real life, anywhere. People come and go out of our lives. Very rarely are people a permanent fixture in our life.
Always remember that just because someone doesn't love/like you the way you feel you should be, doesn't mean they don't love/like you with all they have. It is up to you to decide what is acceptable and what isn't for you.
Each person is different, each persons idea of friendship is different. Just because someone doesn't fit into your ideal of friendship doesn't always mean that the offer of friendship wasn't genuine.

Rosy...sorry that you have obviously been hurt. It's hard when you were friends with someone...even close friends...and you're not sure what happened to change it.
Most people would say I'm a good friend but I have to admit I've been on both sides of this situation...the friend that strayed...and the friend that stayed. I can't say my straying has ever been malicious and frankly usually wasn't even intentional. Just a case of life happens...sometimes you move on...not even for a specific reason...sometimes you lose touch and hell it's embarassing to take the flack when you try to connect again...so you procrastinate about contacting the person. There are 1,000 reasons.
Some people...not many I find...are really good at keeping friends for a long time...a life time even. Others are better at being great friends but for a much shorter period of time. But I think that it's not fair to judge the depth of a friendship based solely on its longivity. I'm a true believer that sometimes friends are a gift...for us to help them..or for them to help us...for a specific reason/time.
I think it's important to be the best friend you can be (not for what you get back but just because) and to appreciate our friends for as long as they bless us with their presence.
PS to diamondjim...nice to see you safely home, hon.

looking for some GOOD friends
PS to diamondjim...nice to see you safely home, hon. [/B][/QUOTE]
Thank you. I must tell you, you have NO idea how lustful one can get when you are no longer in a place where even looking at a woman can get you killed. I went for drinks last night, did not even talk to one woman but I'm sure everyone in the place thought I was giving them the eye... I probably was lol............
What I need is a *uck buddy!!!!!!!!!! lol, just someone who has 1/100 the sex urge I have now. Believe me I could make up fr the other 99%..........

Kiss Me First said:Hi Rosy, just popping in again to let you know I hope things are going okay for you. We're always told tomorrow will be brighter but if you find it isn't just pm somebody!! You would be suprised how many care about you......
Thank you Kiss.....I probably would be surprised....day was sunny today...but I keep having those dark days..where it feels like no one cares and the only thing keeping me going is the thought that I want to see my kids when they grow up and become apart of society. Oh well I'm coming to accept the fact I've lost a friend for no apparent reason.
She probably doesn't even care how much she's hurt my feelings but such is life.

From probably most of LIT including myself
LEAN ON ME
Sometimes in our lives we all have pain
We all have sorrow
But if we are wise
We know that there's always tomorrow
Lean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on
Please swallow your pride
If I have things you need to borrow
For no one can fill those of your needs
That you don't let show
Lean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on
If there is a load you have to bear
That you can't carry
I'm right up the road
I'll share your load
If you just call me
So just call on me brother, when you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem that you'd understand
We all need somebody to lean on
Lean on me when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
Till I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on
Lean on me…

Rosy, I received this in an email one time. I loved it so much and it explains so much about friendship so I thought I would share it with you and your visitors here. Hope you like it. (I saved it to a word doc so I could always go back and enjoy when I get down and feeling noone cares.)
People come into your life for a reason, a season, or a lifetime. When
You
Figure out which it is, you know exactly what to do.
When someone is in your life for a REASON, it is usually to meet a need
You have expressed outwardly or inwardly.
They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you with
Guidance and support, to aid you physically, emotionally or
Spiritually.
They may seem like a godsend, and they are. They are there for the
Reason
You need them to be.
Then, without any wrong doing on your part or an inconvenient time,
This
Person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end.
Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away. Sometimes they act up or
Out
And force you to take a stand.
What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire
Fulfilled;
Their work is done. The prayer you sent up has been answered and it is
Now Time to move on.
When people come into your life for a SEASON, it is because your turn
Has
Come to share, grow, or learn. They may bring you an experience of
Peace or Make you laugh. They may teach you something you have never done. They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy.
Believe it! It is real! But...only for a season.
LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons; those things you
Must
Build upon in order to have a solid emotional foundation. Your job is
To
Accept the lesson, love the person/people (anyway); and put what you
Have
Learned to use in all other relationships and areas of your life.
It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant.
Thank you for being a part of my life. May God hold you in the palm of
His
Hand and Angels watch over you.
