I am so with you on this! I think this might be my motto for the month!
I have learned who my true friends are in this process. It's not been the easiest journey for me... I left home young (21) to a new town where I knew no one. I have made friends here, and for a long while they were good friends.
Now something like this comes up, and one by one all these friends have 'better things to spend their money on'... 2nd computers, 50" TV's, hot tubs etc. I'm not bitter about this, because it is just showing ME where THEIR priorities are. I think if they were doing the same, I would have made a commitment to be there and I would be there.
Incidentally, my bestest girlfriend that I've known since grade 5 and have seen all of 6 times in the last 15 years is coming.
What does that tell you? TRUE friends are friends forever, not just when it's convinient for them.
