[quote=Anonymous] I let go of a long friendship with a Type B a few weeks ago. Her sense of time is wildly protracted. She'll announce a life change, then three years later there's still zero movement on improving her life. Nothing is urgent. Nothing gets planned. She's got a wait and see attitude about things that are time sensitive. Since I manage to work my way out of serious situations (death, divorce, motherhood issues), she doesn't lift a finger to help and judges as I make my way out of things. Chlidfree, but oh she's the best parent in the world! Her only advice is to basically kick back and trust the universe. I thought we balanced each other out, but her lack of seriousness about very serious issues wore me out. She shrugged off important things in her life and dismissed the stresses in mine. My attitude about unemployment (let's say) was poo poo'd. If I'd just relax a job would come. Huh? She had disdain for my need to have a solid schedule re co-parenting, and repeatedly pushed me to leave room for XH's participation no matter how negligent he was. The problem-solving instinct of the Type A certainly benefited her bc whenever she had car trouble, I'd send money. In the end, I no longer found value in a relationship that proved so unbalanced.
