RE: Moving on, Letting Go: Finding New Horizons
I think this happens to most of us who chose to live an alternative lifestyle. They friends that we once thought of as close no longer have the time of day for us. If you look back. I bet that those friends weren't there for you in the good times either and really didn't make the effort to keep in contact when you were living the old lifestyle. How many times did they call you just to see how you were? These are not friends in the true sense of the word. They are acquaintances or ships that pass through your life at random times. A true friend will stand by you no matter what. As for family, just because you share a blood link doesn't necessarily mean they will stand by you. Sometimes non-family are better for you than the family members.
Thank you for your thoughts. I don't even know how to answer your questions .. the answers are not even really clear for me. Out of sight, out of mind is about the best way I can word what it seems like. But, that's alright. Everyone has their path, and obviously many paths diverge; whatever was there did not withstand distance. It stung but, it is what it is.
It is best to move on with your new life. The important thing is that you are happy with the choices you made. Perhaps they are the ones who are missing out on happiness...
