What Constitutes a Shitty Friend?

In a word, I think, it's me.

I am god-awful at keeping up my friendships these days. And keeping up my blogging. And my facebooking. And my laundry...

Oh yeah, that friend thing.

I'm a shitty one.

It's not that I don't want to keep up with my friends, because I do. I miss them. Desperately. And sometimes I sit around and am sad because I really miss a particular person. But do I call them or email them right then and there? No, because I'm an idiot. Or because I think too much time has passed and it will be awkward. Or because I go through a bitchy moment of "Well they haven't called me..."

Most of the time my excuse is that I'm tired. All the time. I've even been to the doctor to try to find out what's wrong. But then, I was too tired to go get the blood work done. And now I'm sick. So the blood work will be off anyways, because of my whacked out white blood cell count. Stupid.

Oh right, I was talking about being a shitty friend.

So I am one. I feel awful all the time, I miss people all the time, but still I do nothing to change it. I don't know why that is.

I really hope I smarten up though, or soon no one will want me.

Well I am still here and will continue to post silly comments on FB and send emails out of the blue - whether you reply or not!

See I don't care if you are a shitty friend, you're still my friend and I refuse to go away.

Hope you feel better soon - being ill all the time isn't fun and is probably the main reason you are such a shitty friend at the moment :-)

I'd like to offer you some words of encouragement, but the truth is, your last paragraph is true. I know because that's what happened to me.

You don't have to spend every minute of every day communicating with your friends, but if you don't keep in touch, before long there won't be anybody to keep in touch with!

That said, keep up the Twitter work! :) I enjoy being your friend!

Hey girl...get your bloodwork done as soon as you feel better...wonder if it's your thyroid...that can make you really tired and is easy to fix.

Hang in there! :)

You're not alone in feeling that, and I know those who seem to have fallen off the face of the earth miss you like crazy. Guaranteed.
