The Jerk Drawer

For a dear family member of mine who requested it:

What's the deal with some people? What makes some people such flakes? How is it that you can be there for someone day in, day out, but when YOU need a helping hand, that person is nowhere to be found?

Friendship goes BOTH ways, people!  It's not fair for you to receive or even expect help from a friend multiple times and then flake out on that friend when the situation is reversed.  REAL friends don't do that!

It's not cool for your friends to do you favor, after favor, after favor, but you never do anything in return.  If you duck out on a friend when they really need you, that rips you off the friend shelf and throws you in the jerk drawer.

You don't want to see what the jerk drawer looks like- it's not pretty.  So don't jump off the friend shelf.  Quit acting like such a jerk, before your friends begin to think you really ARE one.
