[quote=Anonymous]You're both from the same country.

You met in college when both were sent here by your parents to study.

Your parents struggle but make ends meet. You get several side jobs and make enough to support yourself. Friend is a child of a millionaire who never understood how hard is to earn money but friend is very very generous. Always picking up tabs and offering to help giving rides, etc.

You graduate together. Friend goes back home to take over family business. You stay and get a job in the field.

Time passes you keep contact. Whenever friend comes to US or you go back to home country both make a huge effort to meet.

Both get married the same year. Both have the fist child the same year. You have a second child. Friend is done with one. You haven't seen each other in 3 years but keep constant contact online and by phone.

Friend visits US. Friend sends you the itinerary and asks when you can meet (they're spending 4 days in each of 5 locations all over the US). You send the date and place - you decide to make this meeting part of your family vacay since you're flying 5 Hours to meet them.  You're both extremely excited. You will finally meet each others kids!

Unfortunately, in between Your youngest child is diagnosed with a condition, can't fly and child has a crucial medical procedure scheduled for the period friend is here.  You let friend know and apologize profusely for not being able to meet. You offer your place in case they want to come to your (extremely touristic) area.

Friend says "no big deal, maybe next time" via FB message.

Friend "disappears" and reappears once back in home country through pics of their "awesome trip".

Friend since them doesn't call or respond to messages sent by you.
