Crappy Friends

Highly unlikely that I'll ever write a solid word ever again. But if the chance presents itself is have to insist the most recent topic of written conversation most likely pertains to friendships in the modern world. As I go on to celebrate a year later as a Facebook deserter I have come to realize the quality of friendship that exist today is borderline worthless. Some of whom I consider my best of friends have from time to time earned the label of shallow, self-serving and almost entirely one-way. Case and point proven when you are in need.. Whether it be a simple vote of confidence or a shoulder to cry on that is when you can truly determine whom your true friends are. They say at rue friend is there for you between thick and thin....but not just in-between boyfriends. When you can park your car 20 feet away from my front door and visit your boyfriend, my neighbor but not me, should I consider you a friend? If you can work in the same building as me but never come by my desk, not even once, then who are you to me? If your only way of knowing I exist is by a pathetic tweet, please assume we are not friends.

I think tonight's episode of Mad Men summed it up when it said "everything in life is crap. When you think something good is going to happen it becomes crap." It's sad to say, but friendships have really become crap. I need to find a way to feel different. I just need to find different friends. I need to find friendships that don't just exist on Facebook or Twitter on them.
