First of all, the phone is not the issue here. You dont understand my situation and i dont expectt you to. You are right, I did distance my self from everyone. The reason why i stopped contact with my family is because someones family shouldnt kick them when they are down. My family knows i have been going through a rough time. I had a good job and was making good money but it didnt work out. My family should be there for me and help me get through it but instead they make things worse and on top of it they talk down about me to other people. I feel betrayed by them. As for friends, there is no real friends. When i had money and my own place I had so many "friends" around. When times got hard everyone disappeared. People only come around if i have something to offer, if they can benefit out of it. They way i felt about my so called friends was completely different. If my friends had no money or nothing to offer i would still accept them and hang out just for their company. That wasnt the case with me. In my eyes there is no such thing as true friends. What do you call people that are around when times are good but disapear when things get bad. Not friends
Welcome to the really real world and what it is. Most of what people call "friendships" or "relationships" are really just one person using the other for their own perceived benefit or both people using each other for mutual benefits. You can look at examples everywhere, the shy girl attracted to the attention seeking "confident" male, why? Because if she pairs herself with him she gets some of the spotlight he has. Or the parents who convince themselves and try to convince others how wonderful their kids are going to be when they grow up, of course odds say the kid is going to be as mediocre as they are but these people refuse to accept that. The parents are using the kid as justification for their own existence.
Everyone uses each other, back and forth and back and forth.
I can understand completely where the poster is coming from. I dont know if I would take such extreme action as they did, but I sure wish I had the guts to do that.
Is it normal that I stopped talking to everyone in my life?
