I agree with the posts above, but when I am feeling like crap, what kind of company am I? I don't like being around myself, so why should I expect others to like me? I have been weepy and whiney for months at a time, and I bring everyone around me down. It's not fair to them, either.

We are responsible, in some part, for making them WANT to stick by us. We all have crises, and a good friend would recognize that and be supportive, nurturing, loving. But even the very best friend might feel like her energy is being sucked out of her. (I'm certain that's what happened with one of my friends, and I also know it's happened to me.)
