Fair Weather Friends

[naomi24]

Over the course of two years I spent many patient hours on repetitive daily phone calls from a friend going through a divorce.  One day when she rang I was unwell so I said I wasn't feeling too good and could we keep it short today please.  You'd think a friend would ask what's wrong at least, wouldn't you?  Not a bit of it.  Her response?  'You'll get over it' - and proceeded to tell me her troubles as usual.   She has now been relegated to the 'people I used to know' folder. 

 

Any more tales of fair weather friends?

I have no friends, and I don’t want them.

Er.... OK dave.

Please don't go on a killing spree or anything.

No spree, I promise. I have a wife, four children and their partners. Five sisters, one brother. Their offspring. Three grandchildren, so, enough already.
