As the old adage goes, familiarity breeds contempt... there is so much truth to it. A person's idiosyncracies that may escape others, may seem more glaring to someone who is close. Happens all the time, doesn't it? Still, that should not stand in the way of true friendship.

But of course, there are some who are under the pretense of being your supporter, while secretly harbouring hopes of your failure, with a smile in their twisted hearts. People who seem to mean well may just be planning a silent sabotage.

It is a scary world out there sometimes. Maybe that's why I choose my friends wisely now.

yupz, not to mention he was a friend of 20 years. Anyway, left that behind and move on from there ever since.
Have a good flight and safe trip to Sydney. :)

20 years? Gosh... Anyway, I am glad you moved on. The friendship wouldn't have been the same anymore anyway... Rid your life of that toxic friend.

Yep, and I had a good flight to Sydney and back. Thanks!:)
