I've had a friend who I still consider a friend but seriously didn't know how to handle it when I went into the hospital. I could have used her support and there is a part that has backed away since then but I don't feel mad anymore because I know she was just not able. She has other assets. I've had more friends that walked or ran away. A couple were downright, kick em when you're down nasty. One was just plain thoughtless. The nastiest were actually bipolar which hurt even more because they should have known what I was going through. Those people are gone from my life. So basically I can be empathic to people who try but just can't deal and people who are ignorant or thoughtless. The sad part is there are so many more of the thoughtless types.
