Flakers

Is it even worth trying to stay friends with flakers? I have a friend that is known as a flaker in our little circle of friends. We all know never to invite her because we already know she'll never show up. I love the girl to death, but I'm getting tired of trying to get her to hang out with us. I'm not saying she's an awful friend or anything. Overlooking the fact that she never puts the effort to see her friends, she is a sweetheart. But how can you be a friend when you don't see them? Her main excuse is that she's tired. Tired from what? Yes she works and goes to school but that's what college is all about. Balancing your life in the real world. All my friends work and go to school and still have time for people once in awhile. You know when was the last time I saw her? July 7, 2007. Guess it was my lucky day huh? Sometimes I feel like this friendship is a lost cause and in the next year I'll probably stop trying and we'll never see each other again. She already deleted her myspace. Once her facebook is gone, I'm sure our friendship will be as well. Friendships are like relationships. It can't just be one sided. Eventually that person will stop trying and the friendship will eventually fade away. It's sad but that's life. People will come and go in your life, it's the one's who fight to stay in your life that matters. Hopefully she will fight to stay in my life even if it's just a little while.
