No! But I’ve been taken for granted a few times 😕

Would never do that.

In the sense that I've lost friends who I never imagined would die young.

I'm the friend that is taken for granted

Recently a friend messaged me saying something like "I am a bit inconsistent but we're not going to loose contact anyways" and usually I kept lots of relationships like this... But this time I replied "not so sure" and closed the case within me..

Yes. I had taken my own wife then ( now ex) for granted and I deeply regret it. However that experience has taught me a valuable lesson in life.

I actually don't even know. I just know I've never fought for anyone's friendship. I always appreciated everyone who gave me their attention and company but when they were gone that was it. Sometimes you have someone to talk to and laugh with, other times you don't. I'm surprised how many friends I actually had considering how little I invested in them.

No, I haven't and I wouldn't. I haven't had that many. Good friends are too hard to find. 😕

I think anyone that says they've never are probably overlooking times when they did, else they were completely oblivious to taking another person for granted, which may be worse. I've honestly done it more than once and often times it eats at me. I've also randomly realized time and again, the times when I may have or definitely did take someone for granted without consideration of the fact.

Yes when I was in my late teens and totally feel terrible about it. 😞

I’ve taken friends for lunch or dinner, but never granted! 🤣🤣

Did take his girlfriend.
I know …“bad friend”!

not that i remember but i try not to

Yeah and yeah 🫤

No

I don’t know if taking the friendship for granted is the right term, but I definitely did not show her the respect and consideration she deserves. 😔

No, but I've had it happen to me in the past. Maybe I was too trusting.

[@soosie] no not my way i respect friendship and would never take advantage of that

No, never. I keep my circle of friends very small. If we’re tight, I’ve got your back no matter what.

Yes recently and luckily I didn't lose them as a friend 😢

Several times, yes. Lesson learned. Now I don't keep any friends further than I can throw them. When they inevitably stray, oh well. It was always going to happen eventually.

No. I couldnt do that.

🤔
Not that I can recall 💁‍♂️

No, I don't think I have.

yes , when I was younger.

Learned not to....

Probably

Yes and Yes

Yes.

I don’t have so many that I can afford to do that. But I have lost track of people when life interfered, often what they were involved with. And I have wished I’d been more assertive in reaching out. 🥺

Never.

Yes, and yes.

Not to my knowledge, but I have definitely been taken for granted.
