It's funny how when your relationship starts to fall apart, how so many so called 'friends' start to fall by the wayside. I have recently (as of today) lost 2 of what I thought were very good friends because of my marital problems.

One of these so called friends was the cause of the initial problem to start with and the other, who I stupidly thought was my best friend, just decided that she didn't want to deal with the whole situation anymore.

I feel kinda used and thrown away actually. It's a very painful experience to lose a friend as quickly as a click of the fingers. I've had friends that have just slowly drifted away, which just seems to be a natural process when you both find that you no longer have much in common. But to just be told that we are no longer friends because she 'no longer wants to be involved in my situation' is a little harsh; seeing that it was she who always asked me how things were going and what was happening.

Anyone got a bucket of chocolate ice cream?
