[quote=Anonymous]10/31/2013 04:25 - I'm the PP with the long posts. I wouldn't short change yourself like that. This is how you find out who your true friends are. It's funny because my wife and I were introduced by our mutual friends. My friend knew her friend through their parents who were college classmates and it all turned out well. Throughout the years, my wife's friend has always been there, always wishing us the best, absolutely happy that we are successful. She comes over for all the holidays, kids' parties, and we go to her house for dinner at least once a month because she is a phenomenal cook and the kids gets to watch cartoon while eating cookies and ice cream and drink soda. If she is secretly bitter or jealous, she sure hides it pretty well. This friend is still working at the same firm that my wife has left, though in a more senior position now of course. But she appears to be someone who is satisfied with the pace of her life and is genuinely happy that we are doing what we want to do with our life. On the other hand, my friend became a bit of a tool and while we still socialize every now and then, it's only because we have been friends for so long - since high school. I can't exactly call him up and say "Dude, four car garage! be happy for me!" He's done fairly well for himself as well, got married to a great girl much earlier than I did. Maybe the chemistry between guy friends are just different between girl friends, but I just don't feel like he is there for me anymore, nor would he ask me for help if he needed it. Maybe he thinks that I'm the one who turned into a tool. This makes me sad.[/quote]
