I take friendships seriously, and I've been friends with the same people since middle and high school. Sometimes I think I do a little too much for my friends and when I don't get the same respect in return, I'm hurt and ready to lash out.
It's like this situation I have now. I met this girl about two years ago when we worked together, but we became friends. Long story short, she quit, had two jobs after that and lost both. So I went to my boss and referred her and because it was me and my word, she got hired, no interview, no nothing. Soon as she got there, I find out she was dogging me out to the management and co-workers and all the that, I'm buying her lunch because she was hungry, giving her money cause she needed it, putting gas in her car even if I wasn't riding with her, I just knew she needed some gas, but yet you dogging me. I haven't been able to look at her since I was told this information. It's things like that that makes me wonder if I'm doing too much for people I call my friends.
