    Why am I annoyed at my friends?
    I'm 26. I've been friends with these 2 girls since I was little. Over the years one of the girls has apparently made it clear we're not as close as I had thought. She didn't do anything mean but obviously the friendship was more important to me than her. She takes the effort to keep in touch with the other friend but not me. Doesn't respond to emails, I mean how freakin' hard is that? We live in different states but she takes the time to talk with that other girl. It pisses me off when they announce they're keeping in touch. Just a huge disappoinment because I went to her for really bad things through the year and always thought she was really a good friend. But I guess relationships change. Should I just let the friendship go and stop trying since it just aggravates me?

    People change, relationships change, friendships change. It's just part of life.

    You were friends before, but it seems that you've been going in different directions. I understand that you have a lot of history together, so it feels like such a waste to throw it all away. But it's not thrown away, it's in your memories.

    I suggest to remember the good things. Realize that times have changed and your lives are going in different directions. Maybe once you will find each other again, but for now, it's clear that she's not interested in keeping in touch and forcing the issue isn't going to change that.

    I suggest that you leave her alone and make new friends.

    I went to I believe my 10 year, then my 20 year and then my 30 year class reunion, you know what we all remember things differently. Some of the most important events in school to me, was not even remembered by some others. Or not remembered the way I remember it.

    People change, interest, and all sorts of things change

    And I guess it all depends, it is hard for me to reply to a lot of emails with much info, or I really have little to say to people I don't see or don't know about my life now.

I always find myself annoyed by the people around me. Everyone I've been around for a while. I get irritated by little things and I'm never satisfied with what I've been doing for a while. It feels like I always need someone new or something new to do. Does anyone else feel this way?

How do you know if your girlfriend is using you for money or possibly saying she is pregnant so you will not break up with her?
