Man, can I relate to that! And you put it so well...it's
heartbreaking. It's very angering...when you accept other
people for their faults and the acceptance isn't returned...but
I guess underneath the anger is heartbreak. I have a friend who
I still haven't really forgiven in my heart of hearts (we still hang
out, but in my heart it'll never be the same) because I underwent
a suicidal depression for a year and she just wasn't there for me at
all. She couldn't handle it. And I'd been there to pick up the pieces
for her so many times. I guess everyone has their limits and I should just
accept that...but it just HURTS.
