Ugh. Friends.
I know you are supposed to love your friends no matter what, but you know what? Sometimes it is hard. I see these wonderful people, who I love hanging out with, changing. And I don't like how they are changing, or what they are changing into. And it is depressing. And frustrating. I wish everyone would just be cool, you know? Be cool, people!
It is frustrating because I can see the end. Not necessarily the end of the friendship. You never really end a friendship. At least I don't. If I like you at some point in my life then some part of me will always like you. (I'm being a little dramatic here, I'm sorry). But I can see the end of the fun. The end of the desire to be around that person. When the friendship turns from being about what it is and where it can go, to what it was.
I kind of want to sit this person down and say, "Look! I know this is just who you are, but I don't like it. So you better become someone else!" Obviously, I'm not going to say that. But it is just so depressing to have to sit and watch that person slip away.

I was trying to figure out why there was no discussion on this post and then it occurred to me that people might have thought I was talking about them.
Just in case you were worried, trust me, if you are reading this there is 98% chance it isn't about you.

Boy do I ever hate knowing that the combined weight of all of your friends is exactly 50 times my weight...
