Retreat

The true definition of being alone is when you’re in a moment of unclarity and you look around and there’s no one there. People like to be around when things are easy or during happy times but the moment times get hard the retreat. My trust issues come from those times of retreat. I’ve made it a habit to stick around for people when they are going through. To be a shoulder to be a friend, but when I need someone they retreat. What is it about me that isn’t good enough for people to be consistent? When I’m going though there’s no one to even tell how I feel. People don’t care about me. They only care that I give them the results they need. Whatever they may be. I guess I can’t consider anyone my friend anymore. I have grown to understand that no one will be as good a friend to me as I am to them. What makes people retreat? What makes people abandon someone they call a friend?
