Q: ok. if your so called "BEST FRIENDS" never called you, always stood you up with phone calls, and made you feel like you weren't their friend, what would you do?

I had a Best Friend all through school who was just like that. Thinking back, "Best Friend" was like a title we had for one another. It was definitely not the truth. I had many other friends I did things with, confided in, called on the phone, etc.
But my Best Friend and I did stay in touch. And 30 years later, she admitted something that I was always too blind to see about her. She told me that, growing up, she always had to be the Center of Attention.
And when someone is the Center of Attention, she doesn't rely on one person to be a friend. Instead, she relies on superficial qualities that put her into a better light.
So keep Best Friends like these in your heart, but don't depend on them for the companionship of a Real Friend. Actions definitely speak louder than words. And P.S. I'm sure you know this: the best way to have a friend is to be a friend. Love, Gigi

I have had what I term a "soap opera life". In other words, I've seen it all. Almost.
I work in health care and I'm as old as the hills (not that old, I guess--but I'm definitely not a kid) so feel free to ask whatever you like.
NOTE: I AM NOT MY OWN FAVORITE COLUMNIST (SEE BELOW)!!!! I just hit the wrong button...
