It goes on...

I used to think that if I had grown distant from a friend that it was all my fault; I had been working too much, just hanging out with my boyfriend and that I was neglecting my friends. Now I see that you can be distant and still be friends; everybody's got a life and we can't expect to live the same life as when we were in high school but there are some cases that one of the parties just give up.
I guess I'm good for advices and to listen to friends crying because of their shitty boyfriends when nobody else is paying attention, but that's pretty much it, other than that I'm just there, sitting in the corner...
I know it may sound stupid but I thought I would be one of those people who has friends forever and now that I see real life is not really like that, I feel so naive. When the person doesn't have time for you anymore, when you call and they're not there (ever), when eventually you find out that many things happen that you are not aware of (specially because it wasn't you they came to talk to about it), when it's your birthday and instead of being there with you to celebrate, they stay a couple of minutes only (you know, the social thing), when they lie/ommit things who thw hell knows why, the worst thing is, the person doesn't care. Or maybe that's how life is supposed to be and YOU are the one who's overreacting.
I'm not going to stop talking to people or being their friends, I now know that there's no such thing as a best friend forever, acquaintance maybe, but people do drift away from us and that's life. At least I know not to worry anymore.
