I think my best friend is going that way, he blew off the entire memorial day weekend so he could sit on his ass alone at his house (parents gone) when he was suppose to come to my house, and he even told me he was, but instead he used me so his parents would let him stay at my house but he just stayed home.

Yep, only because he's about to become a father with a girl that is incredably stupid and worthless. One night when we were out getting hammed he met this girl, don't get me wrong, she's incredibly hot, but she's just worthles. She's 27, has no job, can't keep a job, and still lives with her mom and gets an allowance for doing chores. LA LA LA LAME!!!

Anyhow, yeah she sucks. And he knows it, but there's nothing he can really do.

Yeah, entirley my fault my childhood friend knew eachother for over 11 years or so and I let my personal confidence issues take the better of me, we still have shit in common he has just moved on in life, while im trying to find a start sort of. Anyway would probably just be too wierd saying sorry not like me atall and its been quite some time.

Same here, man. Same here.

one of my childhood bestfriends blamed me for a girl dumping him on the sole fact that she trusted me as a close friend.
He wasn't even with her 2 weeks and he apparently never forgave me.
Last i heard from him he was planning to kick my ass next time he saw me on the street.

Fuuuuuuuuun!

Well, yes. A lot.
I used to hang out constantly with this one guy who lives down the street, we were best mates and all. Basically when either of us had something interesting in our house, like a cool game or whatever, we'd practically be living in the same house. :)
But things change, he went to another college and I only saw him every once in awhile.

He also spent some time working at the same place as me after that. It was great, but I kinda feel like we don't have that much in common anymore and I hate it....I guess it's been 7 years since we "stopped seeing eachother" so to speak.

The second would be these dudes that I used to hang out with in my later college days.
I don't lose any sleep over those guys, I sure had some fun times with that lot but frankly they were a bunch of tools. I simply couldn't stand the fact that if there was ever anyone else around, they'd start acting totally different towards me. I just stopped seeing them.

There's also a few other people from college that I regret not being able to hook up with anymore. One dude who I basically spent all my time with the first college years. He's just so totally awkward to talk to, I still see him every day in the train home but frankly the awesome we once had is kinda gone.
There's also this girl who I used to like back in those days. We still get along but we never seem to be able to stay in touch. Like, as hard as I (emphasis on the ME in I) try.

Then there's a whole bunch of people from high school or whatever the correct term would be (I have no effing clue how the British or US school system works :p). This is the place where I went after the college-thing-whatever.

The worst really, is the fact that my 4 best mates are probably going to be living more then a 100 KM from here within 1,5 year. 3 of them have already been accepted into the school there and are planning on renting an apartment there after summer, the other is joining them next year once his school is over......Sure, the train system here in Holland is good and all and I guess I should get my license so I could actually visit them if I wanted but damn....it's never gonna be the same again, living 5-10 minutes away from each other.

Hell, I seriously never really noticed how many people I've seen come and go....I wonder if I'm just bad at keeping friends....

The biggest loss for me was a guy I'd been friends with since I was 10. He was a really nice guy who got along with everyone and I was glad to call him my friend. The first reason I stopped talking to him was because he refused to believe I suffer from depression (runs in the family, been on meds etc) and his only response, even after I had sent him and my other best mate an e-mail explaining it, was to "Just cheer up". The second reason was because I met a girl at one of his parties and we hit it off. I got her details off my mate and started to chat to her, then my mate asked her out even though he knew I was planning too. The biggest reason is because, after he went to Uni, he started to belive his own publicity about how much of a nice guy he was and ended up being the sort of guy where (quote from another friend who stopped talking to him) "its surprising his head is that far up his arse considering how big it is".

The last really memorable one was a girl who went kind of crazy once she got a boyfriend. We used to go on double dates, since they were mutual friends before they got together, then she went nuts and accused me of trying to steal him away. He rang me not long after that to ask advice as he was trying to ditch her, but then she turned up at his house and refused to leave.
Strange times.

My friend who I've had for as long as I can remember doesn't do alot these days, mostly sits on his ass, claims benefits and plays WoW, seems like abit of a dick but I've always liked him just because we've been hanging out since we where like 5. Lately though he's been blowing me off to play WoW with his girl friend who lives afew thousand miles away and is probaly a bloke, 3 weeks ago I asked him if he wanted to watch the Champions League final and have a couple of bevvys or something, so that was the plan. Then on Saturday he tells me he needs to hang out with his e-girlfriend so can't watch the game with me, I just went and spoke to him today and asked if he still doesn't want to hang out and he pretty much casually told me to fuck off so he can play WoW.

It's a shame, I enjoyed hanging out with him and he only has one other real life friend, but it's down to him if he preferes magical elves to real people.

Anyone else have a similar story?

LOL you could replace WoW with heroin and magical elves with crackheads in that post and it would still make sense.
Get a WoW account of your own (free trial) and seduce him away from his e-girlfriend in the guise of an even hotter girly avatar.

Sort of...

._.

We keep in touch, though.

My closest friends have never had ego/relationship-esque problems with me (as far as I know), and I haven't with them either.

Some of them move away and it's hard to see each other but we usually still talk to each other now and then.

Yeah, mostly because they'd start smoking pot and blowing all their old friends off just to go out and get high all the time. It tends to happen around where I am (we're talking a city where an elementary school student got busted for cocaine possession).

Yeah, I moved to another state a while back.

I still shoot my friend emails every once in a while though, let him know I'm still alive.

I mainly drift, which probably pisses my friends off. I tend not to call people to check up on them, and such. This most likely would make them mad, but so far they are understanding.

But, I am getting better about it. I still maintain a close circle of friends, with only two knowing each other because they are brothers... I like my space I guess you could say? (And I think I love one.)
