Why is it so hard to have friends who don't just abandon you the minute you have a rough time?

There have been many times when I have looked around me and thought, wow, I have a really good support network....but it's not real. People are all talk it seems.

Maybe I just don't know what people want 🤷‍♀️ Just the good bits, it seems.

The problem with people these days is they only want to be friends with you if it serves them. Always running to you when in need but turning their head when you need them. A true friend will sit in silence if you call with sadness at 3a.m. with nothing to say.
