I just lost my last close friend. She ended our friendship because I wouldn't take her advice and divorce my Bipolar husband - she's been married 3 times so she's "experienced". She said it was too taxing for her to constantly worry about me and that she didn't want to be around when "the burning building starts to collapse". Whatever that means. It's a shame, I have known her for almost 10 years. Gee, sorry I love my husband.

I've always been somewhat of a loaner so I guess I go back to that. I don't think people want close friendships these days anyway. Everyone seems to be a convenience friend now.
