I don’t understand how people can have so much money and not do good things for those around them. Why aren’t they giving money away?
Dear Lisi: One of my very good friends is very good friends with a woman whose family has a lot of money. This woman doesn’t work and though her husband does, he doesn’t make as much money as they spend. Its blatantly obvious, especially when you see their gigantic house, their cars and their summer home.
What they do with their money is none of your business. Do you know for a fact that they don’t volunteer? Or that they’re not philanthropic? I’m guessing you don’t, and you’re simply envious of their lack of financial stress, which affects many more people than not.Dear Lisi: Years ago, I met a woman at a function, and we really hit it off. We were both newly engaged, and we clicked talking about how our lives were about to change dramatically.
My baby is now six months old and I’m finally coming up for air. I’m realizing that my friend hasn’t been there for me in this first stage of motherhood, even though I’ve reached out for help and friendship several times.I’m not sure I’d call her a Fairweather friend, but she may have been what is sometimes referred to as a seasonal friend. Someone who comes into your life for a season, but then the friendship wanes over time when that period in your life changes.
