Sarah:
It was sad! But that’s what you get for not choosing your so-called friends a bit more carefully. And thanks!
MC:
I read The Great Gatsby and do remember it well. I don’t recall anyone not being a stuper in that tale.
dawn:
That is sad! I guess some think that’s the only way to get friends.
Jen:
Well, that’s a good point! But I bet even if you had the dough, you would not surround yourself with stupers!
Thank you for the compliment!
Tom:
They certainly can be. I certainly did not mean anyone to feel sad. I think Kenny T learned from his experience and in fact, gained a more satisfying life with real friends.
FerdC:
That is for sure! Good point!

Yep, fair weather friends.
I found a lot of them during my divorce 5 years ago. You find out who your true friends are. They are the ones that still love BOTH you and your ex.

People really are horrific, aren’t they? The ability to judge the appropriateness of one’s behaviour is utterly absent in most people. It’s a wonder we are able to operate as societies at all. Great post….but now I feel sad.

One thing is for sure, and for this I am oddly thankful: no one will ever love me for my money.

My daughter has an acquaintance in school… her friends are bought on a daily basis. It is sad and happens too often.

This reminds me of the Great Gatsby. When Gatsby threw the parties everyone came. When he died in disgrace, he had two people at his funeral. Obviously, Gatsby surrounded himself with stupers.

Ah, this is sad! Wasn’t there even one stuper relative who stayed friends with Kenny T. even after he lost everything? I guess if they did they wouldn’t be a stuper. I learn something everytime I read one of your posts!
