Almost everyone here has had friends and/or family members act in less than helpful ways. I also have had many "friends" disapear. Try to call your friend and explain how you feel. i actually emailed one of mine that i was disallusioned with and she called and took me out to dinner. Others I have forgotten about and hope they are never in this position because I certainly won't be there to help. Don't hide-cry if you have to but don't make yourself a hermit. I have started having some friends and family over on the weekends to help with the loneliness.
