Have you ever felt like the friend you have are not your friend anymore?

I know how that is. I was really close with two of my cousin's. I had the same outcome. One of them I did EVERYTHING for and she just used me and stabbed me in the back. It was really hurtfull but I know I will be better off in the longrun, People like that are not necessary in my life. they do more harm than good.

Yes, I know what you mean. I feel that way with my old group of friends from back in highschool (which was not very long ago). Before, we were all what I'd considered "close", but now, since everyone is off in college and kind of doing their own thing, we're not as close now. A majority of us haven't really been in contact physically with other group members, whereas myself and some others have. The thing is, we were all apart physically for so long, when usually around this time, we would be eating together during lunch at our usual spot. Now, all we can really do is connect online and maybe try to meet-up every once in a while. The real thing is, I feel like they're not so much of my friends anymore, not because of distance necessarily, but rather just their attitudes and how they are. The sad thing is, I never realized this until now. Maybe I did from before, but I ignored it because I saw them so much that whatever good things or appealing things that I saw that they did or said replaced all the bad things that I noticed about them. But now, it's different because the only contact we do truly have is online through messaging and such. With that, I was able to look deeper into what type of person they really were and what they dared to say something through messaging when they really could have put it in better terms or put it more politely: basically, they could reword everything and rethink their response. I'm honestly just rethinking if they're my friends anymore because I don't know if I want friends like that...Now, this isn't to everyone in the group. Only a select few since only a select few actually chose to respond. The others who did say anything at all, a majority of them are people I reconsider as my true friends. I just don't think I want friends that are so closed minded and selfish. That is why I don't think some of them are my real friends anymore.

Hey my friend. I suggest you move on and don't blame yourself. Your cousin just needs to know that you'll always love her you're not obligated to do anythig for her. I say just acknowledge her on her birthday and holidays with just a phone call. Don't beat youself up, you have a true friend in me here at myLot. Have a blessed day and I hope you are showered with many blessings for thinking of her and loving her.

Yes true, when I was in University,I had me some good close friend , I used to think we were going to be friend even out of school, but unfortunately after school everyone went his way, it really hurts me because I have always been the one calling, mailing and so on, but hardly they reply, so then I ask myself were they just opportunity friends?
