Wow I'm sorry he did that to you. He obviously wasn't that good of a friend then. I actually am starting to believe that no matter how long you and someone else know each other, if they act a certain way like you described and throw away the friendship like it meant nothing to them, then they were not a real friend in the first place. I understand friendships come and go, but usually real friends don't end a friendship that way. It is usually a natural fade out whole both friends are still on good terms and still think good things about each other. Friends that end it abruptly without a reason, especially if nothing bad happened, weren't really real friends to begin with.

That is how I now feel about the friend that cut me off. I actually thought maybe she did like me as a friend since we knew each other for four years and stayed in contact with me after I graduated from college and even after she graduated too. Then she just cut me off. And she is doing perfectly fine too. Nothing bad happened in her life. So that is why I feel like I was just a friend of convenience and she may no longer need me around her. I don't like being used like that so it was probably for the best. I'm glad you are getting better. I can understand how that made you depressed. I've been there. I've been hurt many many times in the past. Glad things are getting a bit easier, since it usually does get easier with time. It can be harder to trust new people you meet though unfortunately.
