I've got a friend who is perfectly well-intentioned and a good person, and who I really respect.
She will literally never speak to me about anything, or come around to anywhere I'm chatting, unless it's to share some devastating bad news, or to self-promote.
I'm loud and chatty so there's tons of ways to bother with me, regardless of the topic. She won't.
So, what I know is this: she only speaks to me when she's decided there's a strategic reason to.
It sucks so much to be used as a prop.
