Friendship Lines

At what point do you discontinue someone as a friend and begin calling them an associate? at what point does the friendship line erase and how quick should you be to let them back in. Lately, i've been having "problems" with my friends. and i continuosly wonder, at what point should i drop them as a friend?

what do you do if you feel like your best friend is using you? do you drop them as a friend? - or continue being there friend w.out doing anything for them? i feel like my bestfriend was using me, and i stopped talking to her. its funny bcuz i thought she was the only good friend i had left, but i guess not. maybe she doesnt realize that she never hits me up to talk, its always to ask for something. maybe she doesnt realize when her MAN doesnt want to be with her, she always runs to me. maybe she doesnt realize i havent been speaking to her much in 4 weeks. maybe she just doesnt realize we arent friends anymore.

it does sadden me to say these things, but thats the reality of it. friends come and go. im just re-evaluting peoples positions in my life.

theres a big difference between growing up & growing out.
