These people as in friends

Unreliable, turn up late, don't call, don't turn up, mess me about, take money off me, insult me, waste my time etc :eek:

I guess friends ain't that important, but its good to have some right?

As in, they use you?! Like fair weather friends, who only call you when they need something etc?! or stitching you up!?

At least you have 2 best mates, and as long as you can trust them, keep them close, and forget the "friends" who screw you about, you don't need mates like that at all :smile:

We use each other!

Yeah, one friend didn't call me at all, when he had a gf, when his gf dumped him, he calls me?!?!

Too be honest, noone calls me! Its always me chasing people up! So, they don't call me if they want something, 'cause I would say no, and tell them to piss off! stitching you up? as in messing me about, then yes.

One of them is taking money off me, saying he would give it back. He says he will buy me stuff next time??!! Yeah right?!

One of them has a kid, got divorced, a stud, hes too busy, so we hardly talk

Good advice there mate

Yeh, mates are completely different when they get g/fs, only call you when their "other halfs" are on hoilday, and worst thing is, when they've had a massive row, and call you to go out, then dump you to run back to them. That totally sucks!

Personally, i wouldn't give any of my mates money, only really close mates ive known for years, and i know i can trust, because once you give a not so good mate money, he knows your a walk over, and will always ask you for money, or if in a pub, ask you to buy the "round" and he/she will get the next one.. and they don't.

I know this soudns childish, but i used to do it all the time, the mates that hardly ever phone you, text you, do the same back, or if they do text you, and you know they are after something, ignore them.. not nice but if they do it to you, why can't you do it to them?!

ill stop going on before i end up writing a bible..... :smile:

And your welcome :smile:

A life without friends would be really boring I reckon.

Don't worry I am okay

These friends are nice people, they just don't want to hang around with me or chase me for some reason

I am nice to everyone and invite people to places, but they never come! Even if they do come, they are always very late

But I always get picked on for being nice, I think I should be just mean! But thats not me

life without good friends would be an absolute downer and boring.. a life without mates who are bankers and use you, would be a cushty life, without getting screwed over..

Next time you want to invite mates to places, only invite the ones closest to you, and the mates that aren't as good mates and use you, will want to work, to be able to have a good time, as long as you talk aroudn them that you had a wicked night etc...

And as for being mean to the mates are being mean to you, i personally wouldn't waste my time to be honest, it will lower you to their level, which you don't want to do really :smile:. But as you said its not you, and even maybe if you tried being horrible (ive tried it and failed) they will just walk all over you more, and treat you even worst.. :frown:

EDIT: G'night :yy:

I'm hearing almost the story of my life...hahaha.
yeah I know how you feel. it's always ME calling my friends asking if they wanna hang out when I'm back in my home country for a break or something. they're always busy and have no time for me and i'm like I'M ONLY HERE FOR THREE WEEKS AND YOU CAn'T EVEN MAKE TIME FOR ME!?
also, they have really weird ways of thinking. I go back to my home country and they want ME to buy them drinks. I just get so pissed off. I'm like "You know, I'm the visitor, YOU should be buying me drinks. If you guys came up to Japan, then I'LL buy you drinks. WEIRD people they are. I don't talk to more than half of them already. Such a turn off

Guys, seriously, stop whining. You have only yourselves to blame. Either you're not good at finding decent friends, or not good at keeping them, or something else. One doesn't deserve a lot of stuff here in life, there's no rule book that says what you could expect from life - one is responsible for making oneself get what one wants.
