Do I have to start again !!!!!!!!!

my suggest is that there is no everlasting friendship but eternal interest,the friendship sometimes are week most of time it goes on well.people are born with concentration on their own benifits,if you block their way,then sorry ...so do not put too must trust on anyone else except yourself ,for me i only trust on my family and myself because i know everytime i get hurt the only place i go to is may family.so good luck...

I think is normal if you feel sad because you really put effort to build the friendship and treat him as your best friend. But why don't you think that, you as his friend, you also don't want him suffer with your personal problem right. And if he really not a right candidate as your best friend, i believe you will get the best candidate since our life is still continue. Take care.

well you know a real friend in the time of troubles and if you had a problem and he left you then you cant consider him as a friend

I meet also friends like that, and mine me they are not worth of spending time with. They are their when their good happenings, but when you need their presence they are gone. I really hate that kind of person.

I had a friend, or so I thought she was my friend. Our husbands are in the Navy and she didnt know anyone since they had just moved. she knew a few ppl, but had problems with some. I thought she was a good friend, I helped her out a ton. I helped her with her daughter, she was pregnant threw her a baby shower, was there for her and she helped me some too. When i really needed her support she left me and found other friends. When I told her the friendship wouldnt work if she was only going to take she got upset and than spread untrue rumors. I found out shes latches on to ppl that will give her what she wants. Once they stop she finds someone else, portraying herself as a wonderful friend, but really shes a moocher. So it depends on what happend in the friendship as to if its worth trying again. I gave this friend a second chance, but didnt help her as much, was just a freind and she still treated me like crap.

It is always hard when you find out that someone whom you considered a true friend was only a "fair weather" friend. The best thing to do in this situation is to let go and let God. If you and that person are meant to be friends, the time will come when you can move pass this situation and repair your relationship.

It is better late than never,so if you have now known that the person is not your friend infact he never was then its time you gotta know that you are on your own and hence make your own arrangements.Aside there is no point in ruing the fact that you choose bad its better to just move on cos trust once broken can never be mended.

I think it's natural to be sad over a situation like this. I would be sad if I were in your shoes. It is difficult to see how those that you thought were close and would be there for you turn out not to be. It is a sure disappointment. If you see the need to start over again then you should. You never know what may happen in the future. It's important to not overly dwell on negative things but to keep positive and find happiness in new situations.
