Who are your true friends??

I get that people don't know what to say sometimes.  I suppose the  thing I'm  finding difficult is that the people who are acting this way have known me for years. Went through school, uni and pretty much everything together.  Don't get me wrong I still have some fantastic support.  My hubbie, parents, siblings and other friends have been fantastic. Even people who in don't know that well have been so kind. My husbands bosses wife whom I've met only a couple of times, popped round  yesterday with a packet of Tim Tams. We sat in the garden with a coffee and had a good old natter. I suppose people deal with things in different ways and its probably a bit presumptuous to think everyone react the same way you would if the roles were reversed.
