Are all people mean or do mean people know when they have a sap? I wanna know are all people just mean by nature or are there truely good people out there. I've set myself up so many times I'm about to give up on people all together. Should I just get over myself and keep the faith I've alway had in people? I just want to know how people can be the way they are and sleep at night...?

It's ashame we meet so many mean people in our lives. I always tend to meet people who need me when they have a problem, but once it has gone, so have they. I also tend not to be very tollerant and if someone is my friend and then uses me I usually walk away. There are some good people out there, but you do have to look far or be lucky sometimes!! I am nearly 40 and I would say I have about 3 good friends. They do say "You can count your friends on one hand" so you are feeling the same as most people. Don't give up though. I remember reading how friends come and go like seasons, years, or a lifetime. I have to agree with this. I have met people who have been a friend for a short period, some a few years and a couple who will be my friends for a life time. I hope you find your true friend one day!!

Girrl I have one true friend. She took me in when I lost everything! My house my cars and my kids...it was me trusting in some very bad people that got me in situation my stupidty. Now I must say this friend has saved me. I can see my kids on a regular basis because I'm not living amoung the slime I was living with before. For all I know they had slitherback under the from where they came. I mean I blame my self for my mess...and I'm paying back the balence on the house, I should have done something when my so called friend opened a credit card and my name and charged it to the max! (is a really dumb girl and still beats my self up) Yeah but if it werent for a true friend I don't know where I would be now.

thanks so much I appreciate what you are saying...I still struggle with myself and I blame myself for letting myself get into a situation where the only thing I could do is walk away.
