If a man does not make new acquaintances, as he advances through life, he will soon find himself left alone. A man should keep his friendships in constant repair.
Samuel Johnson
Sadly, I have one friend who makes friends and then the minute that she doesn't need them any longer, she has no use for them. It's sad, because she has a great sense of humor and is always fun to be around... but it has to be on her terms! I think that she is going to be just like the person Johnson referred to above... finding herself alone! And I don't think that she sees it coming!
