Ever Get that Feeling that some of your "Friends" are only your "Friends" based on...

[SoCaliUPC]

If they are doing that...they are not friends.

I would not keep anyone around because I was doing things for them. Sorry.

Over the last 5 years or so, I have had two people try to get to know me...and it was real apparent they were getting to know me based STRICTLY on WHO I knew. I immediately just ceased that. I want one to like me and befriend me for who I am....not for who I know and that by being friends with me they can meet and possibly befriend that person (with the meeting of the other person the "goal" of the friendship).

Friendship in large part is static with few exceptions.

Do confuse acquaintances or casual contacts with friendship.....True friends are not usually large in number.......

I have had only one person I know do me that way.

I don't appreciate it at all!
