[quote=Anonymous] Same here! I really struggled with friendships in my 30s. Our big sis Jen kept yelling, "friendship is easy! Just show up for people!" I felt like I'd show up for people all the time - bring them food when a family member passed, check in on people, pay attention to other people's lives - and yet when my family went through a major ordeal, barely any of those people showed up for me. One day I realized that whenever Jen talks about showing up for others, she gives examples of when people showed up for HER. I've never heard her share a story about when SHE sat with someone going through a divorce or built a friend a porch bed (seriously WTF). That's when it hit me how much she uses people, because it takes a lot more to find good friends than just throwing a pizza oven in your backyard. I couldn’t have said this better myself. I also felt something was WRONG with me after reading her books. I now know it was All fake. [/quote]
