When was the last time a friend let you down?

Classify this as one of those "just out of curiosity" polls. And if you're going to respond, why not give the details about the heartbreak while you're at it? Or not. Your call.

1. major, MAJOR let down by a couple of friends

several weeks ago.

saw some really ugly 'human behavior' that I hope I don't see again. I got involved with some people too quickly and didn't see the signs that they were both a little wacko.

3. Ouch.

I have noticed that it's the friends I haven't known "that long" who tend to be the "downers."

2. Friends don't let you down.

They must have been mere acquaintances. :)

4. About a month and a half ago.

I think. I've stopped keeping track. My ex-girlfriend...you all know that story.

Needless to say, I no longer consider her a "friend."

5. Actually, ZN, I don't know that story. You don't have to re-post it,

of course, but it seems I missed a major Lounge event. Sorry it didn't work out, and that it ended with a let-down. That...always sucks.

6. Kick, in case the morning crew wants to contribute a response or two.

7. See "Myth of some 'nice guys'"...

Although I'm happily surprised that for such a sensitive subjects and 155 posts, there's been only one deleted message. Really surprised. Is this the same lounge I cooled off from a couple months ago? Way to go, guys!

[BlueIris]

8. Yeah, I noticed that the thread had, like, exploded.

I was scared to go back and look at it, though. Only one deleted message, hmmm? Interesting. I thought for sure that it had become a "hot" discussion because of a flame-war or something.

9. Hell, what time is it?
