I don't get it...

I really don't understand society sometimes. You have someone who you call your "best friend", someone who you claim is very important in your life, and you so easily take advantage of their presence, and sometimes are even surprised when they don't continue to take you back, time after time. I understand that you have been under the weather, or you have family visiting. I understand, I really do. I don't think I ask for much: return a short phone call, or text message. God forbid I actually might NEED to speak with you for something rather important.

In the past I have been rather demanding of my friends. I think I've toned that down a lot, but when I toned it down, everyone else just lost all regard for me. A big sign? My cell phone bill. 2 months ago, I used a total of about 4000 minutes when I totaled my WHENEVER, nights and weekends, mobile to mobile, etc. 4000 MINUTES talking to friends and being my normal "social butterfly" self. Last month? 2000. My phone usage was cut in half! When my phone usage died, so did my social life. I spend my time here, in my room... alone. It's rather depressing that I really don't have anyone to spend any time with here because it seems like convenience is a big factor in a friendship with Greg.

On top of it all, I had plans last night with someone I am very interested in, and have been interested in for quite some time. We were supposed to get coffee or something along those lines after I got off from work... the funny thing is... like all my other friends, even HE hasn't answered my calls in 3 days. What the hell is up with everyone not picking up the phone? Am I that annoying?
