While I don't agree with everything in this (and it is AI), but there is some VERY relevant material with my intimate-deep-friend "breakup". Still quite painful, though it's getting easier. The association towards other things have also come to light with this sort of misuse.

"But Behavior - Behavior always exposes reality eventually." The friend that says they care when they somehow don't have time over weeks (and aren't in a high priority job). The excuses, the shallow, fake responses...

No...I don't think so. I'm not a tool that one can grasp and forget when the job is done.

That's not friendship. In any way. It's ironic. They've complained about shallow relationships in the past.

Fine.

But I'm not powerless. I KNOW the "using" wasn't that way until recently. We've been friends for years and this is what happens when there's a shiny new thing for weeks on end?

You're maintaining your scheduled appointments. You have spent plenty of time sightseeing, going to cafes, gone shopping for several days...but there's no 5-10 minutes for supposedly deep friends? You left Germany and the rest of us with it.

Except it isn't. You go to social media platforms we shied away from for privacy reasons. But only for me and that's where the silence has been for months. I can see you've been online. I have noted.

Eventually, I came to the conclusion that this isn't a "location" shift. I was simply disregarded as my role wasn't needed anymore. I didn't know it, hadn't for years, but I was the Great Distraction from an unhappy relationship. It wasn't obvious until the relationship ended and I was...abandoned.

There were 5-6 RED FLAGS for human trafficking in the situation and the only person I cared about was casting me aside as an afterthought. That hasn't changed. 

Strung along while the initial adjustment period happened. The response fake and hollow. Forced as an obligation.

Plenty of those I've helped have vanished and there was a largely clear-cut reason or several for such. Abandoning me after 6 years over...what? You ex-husband even said I was nothing but a good friend. 

This will be answered. Friends leave all the time. Good friends, too. "I care deeply for you" friends leaving me with messages of normalcy while ignoring posts and leaving generic, idiotic posts is not what friends do.

So, I stood up for myself and said that you had time (true) for a good friend (supposedly true) in the 5-10 minute range. We used to "talk" 3,4,5+ times with substantial messages. You left for Egypt and can't squeeze one substantial one a week? You're unemployed and have the same time as when you were in Germany. It's pretty clear that there isn't room for old friends in a new life. 

You will be treated as I was. And those agreements you made and broke...that I smoothed over with my relationships...are now back on with interest. By their request and the removal of my protection. But you'll see that soon enough.
