I have just sent an email to a 'friend' of over 60 years telling her a few home truths. I am not usually one who speaks her mind and i hate confrontation but she has been a very poor friend for some years and particularly now, when she wrote at last a day or so ago asking if we were well (er no!) before going straight on to detailed information about the free trips and luxury jollies paid for by her husbands company and totally ignoring the fact that both my husband and daughter have cancer....i saw red.
To be honest this has been coming for a long time, she has lost all sense of reality and lives in a small bright shiny wealthy bubble with her super rich friends, while we have always worked for the public services. I am not envious as she enjoys little of her good fortune because she/ they always manage to find fault with anything and everything, whereasif something nice happens to us i really appreciate and enjoy it.
I have agonised over our friendship for a long time with many sleepless nights, what i wanted to say, how to say it. Should i say it? Have to say it feels sort of good. I think! Has anyone else ever done similar?
