I was just thinking about this.I've posted alot about my own situation with my friend so I'm not going to repeat it.Recently though,I've been feeling as though,in my close friendships, I seem to end up being let down sooner or later more often than not.I've been wondering why.I try to be loyal,dependable,to support my friends if they are down or in need etc but it seems that more often than not,I don't get the same in return.I've one friend who I could say I can talk to about anything and who is absolutely loyal to me.I've other friends,less close who are more "social" friends.
Reading through other threads,it seems I'm not alone in this situation.Are there certain types of people who get let down more than others? Is it the people we choose to be friends with ,that we choose the same types who will let us down?

I'd be interested in anyone's thoughts on this -I'm sick of it happening to me and I'm sure from reading that others are also fed up of the upset it causes.
