I too have had 2 constant friends in my life and others that come and go I think it's just harder to make friends when you're out of school or work because you never see these people.<br /><br />Of course I'm the black sheep of my neighborhood so nobody even talks to me anymore but hey, I wouldn't want to hang with them and have family home evening anyway because I'm pretty sure wine isn't aloud.Grand Poobahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18223439935987831945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2884255801358360477.post-85319370590616915862009-09-01T09:03:47.645-04:002009-09-01T09:03:47.645-04:00I don't know about neighborhoods and bitchy wo...I don't know about neighborhoods and bitchy women, but I do know how difficult it is to have a true friend and to MAKE a true friend as an adult.

My mom was on that list till recently and things are pretty rocky right now~ and I hate it.<br /><br />Mindless, skinny twits those "5 lb" girls! I love to be able to put people like that in their place when they talk to me about other people being fat.

I would have to admit perhaps a small few might do it to intentionally hurt someone who is closeby that has a weight issue..but it makes me sad to think someone would be that cruel. The other day i saw a couple of guys in a truck and they had a bumper sticker that said--No Fat Chicks..I cringed.<br /><br />I'm heavy to..and yes i need to lose weight-and i continue to try..but so far I"m not doing well. I take care of myself and am proud of myself as a woman. For those who would be rude to me-I would ignore..in my mind--they look horrid when they do it--so nothing need be said.Dawn Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11738975580656220888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2884255801358360477.post-19987511146166141712009-08-30T18:11:07.900-04:002009-08-30T18:11:07.900-04:00Tell me about it.

I hope y...I wish I could give you a great big hug! I hope you realize those ladies complaining about losing 5 lbs have low self esteem & they're trying to inflate their egos. Just be happy with yourself. (Oh & I can relate because I used to be one of those complainers - bet everyone hated me - & I could never lose enough weight to be happy.)<br /><br />I've lived in my neighborhood for 31 years & go shopping sometimes with my neighbor across the street. That's pretty much it. I don't know most of the neighbors & it's sad, I have no desire to. I don't want hear about what the others are doing, unless it's home improvement that may spark some ideas for us. I don't have many close friends because I've weeded out the users & the me-me-me people. Really - how many times do I need to listen to how great someone is & they don't give a rats a** about how or what I've done. <br /><br />I thoroughly enjoy my blog & Farm Town friends. What a wonderful group of ladies and I am so delighted to have Bridget as a lunch & shopping buddy! ☺ Now it could get even better if more of you would move to the Bay Area! ☺♥☺ DianeFour Paws and Cohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17283354014217433510noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2884255801358360477.post-57444917773628573872009-08-30T12:12:38.187-04:002009-08-30T12:12:38.187-04:00Yeah, some people just don't think.
