Fooled

October 2, 2011

Here is a situation where I have had the most amazing, happy, and blessed week, and yet the only thing I’m going to blog about is one bad thing.

Sometimes, you find something out about the people you care the most about, and it makes you question everything you’ve come to believe is true. I was trying to counsel a good friend of mine about someone tonight, trying to make her realize the truth about them. Only the result was that I realized that, not only she, but I as well, have been fools. Fools. Fooled.

At this point, I’m thinking about whether or not I should just cut my losses.

It’s funny, reading back on older blog posts. At one point a few posts ago, I talked about how my new friends differed from my old. I think what I’m realizing now, is the old ones are the ones who I can rely on. These new ones? Fleeting. “People in motion.” “Fun.” Unreliable. Clearly I don’t really know what I need or want. What I need are people who I can rely on to be there, who I can rely to make the effort to be there. Alas, a lesson learned.
