Why My Friends Can Be The Worst

I'm not just talking about my friends, but I'll also say siblings. Most people would say they have the same problem. They'll say she said this, and then did that... He did what? Anyway, my friends are those typical people who make plans just to break them, or they make plans to underwhelmingly attend, and make you feel awkward for their presence. They're the friends who feel the need to belittle for the sake of belittling, but it's more under the cuff - passive agressive if you will. Only yearning to have a conversation with you if it fits their personal agenda, or if it fits into their "busy schedule." Now I'm not one to complain about friends... Hell, I try not to complain about anything... To much confrontation about it. It's just ridiculous when you make a friend, expecting them to be a friend, but they act more like a stranger. Speaking of strangers... Siblings... Just like friends, but they know they can ignore you because you're family, thus always forgiven. It can get pretty iritating when you try and have a simple text conversation and end up having to prove your worth to get a response. By that I mean - is your subject matter to my liking, and your puncuation? Is it good enough for me to read? On the other hand, the conversation had between the sibling other than myself end up a garbled mess of who knows what's being said. I'll bring up food, culture, movies, entertainment for god sakes! And to only hear chirping crickets... However, my other sibling talks about something from a video game, especially mundane, and BOOM text explosion! It's like hitting the conversational jackpot... And yes, I'll agree that some of my subjects can come off pretentious, overly knowledgable, but that's just it! They have to be, or the conversation gets completely lost for the sake of argument. If I'm wrong about something --- Hell hath not fury... If I'm right, what a boring pretext. It's not that I hate my friends and siblings... I perfectly love all of them. Thats the thing though, I put more feeling into the relationship than the next, ie: coming up with events (which are normally awesome), keep conversation going (dont want the friendship to go stagnant), be as much of a dude as possible (including awesome compliments, and person who will listen). Maybe I should get new friends people say, but the problem is no one wants a new friend these days, unless they can easily click a friend acceptance box. Anyway, cheers to the weekend!
