I'm quite a sensitive guy, and i normally would keep things bottled up, rather than the tell the person off that i'm
2 people in particular i felt like we'd be best friends forever. But now i'm not so sure. I email, i message, and there's only so long one can keep on doing this and most of the time not getting a reply before you think about giving up. I used to think i'd have a friend for life, but we've moved on from a bunch of emails per day to maybe 1 every week, or from daily chats to never chatting.
They could be working 3 jobs, or working on their PhD, or whatever, and i know they're busy. But is it too much to ask for a hello every now and then? Or a reply to an email. Even a 1 liner is better than nothing. Is it asking for too much? Maybe it is...

It scares me how quickly things have changed.

well, having been out almost 2 years, I can say with certainty that the gay community has the depth of a frying pan. I do think there are such things as "real" gay friends (you know what I mean), but I definately think they are difficult to come by. Hang in there buddy and dont give your heart away too quickly, even if it is just to friends...

Creative Thinker, you've been out not even two years and you're that bitter?
Friends should be friends, not "gay friends" or "black friends" or "white friends" - sure we need people in our life that understand us but look out side the box.
I have the most amazing groups of friends, they enrich my life and I feel honoured to have them around me - I can't imaging what life would be like with out them - they are my family... And, you might not believe me but some of them are gay too.
I believe it's important to stop and think about what might be going on in the lives of others before making a judgement. Sometimes difficult things may prevent people from communicating in the way they would normally do.
If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?
