This is first time in my life that I really sounds so pessimistic.I have lost my complete trust on two of my closest friends one is Leo the other is Aquarius. So that totally means I am not going to share any event of my life with them any more. I guess I have been through the toughest time of my life where I have no one who actually cares. Beside this all I am going to start my university soon after summers So I am taking some practice classes for the admission tests.Although I have a busy life but all these betrayals are bothering me so much. Its not necessarily being alone because I had love to be but what I personally feel right now is whenever my friend needs me in any of her relationship problem, family problem or emotional I am always with her no matter how busy my life is. I just expect exactly this way from others . Am I wrong?

Now what I want is forget all my past and move on as I am going to start my new life with my University. I just want you guys to give me suggestions how can I reduce those feelings and negative thoughts that make me feel betrayed, angry and sad? What are the things that usually Capricorns do to overcome this feelings?What else i can do to keep myself busy . Also next time whenever I make friends I don't want to repeat that mistake again. Your help right now will be so helpful for me .

When it comes to being able to count on people I never expect anything back and I use my gut feeling when it comes to deciding when enough is enough. Must admit to being pretty tolerant, but when the line is passed, it's passed.

It takes time to heal. I do think you may be worried unnecessarily, though. I am willing to promise you that a lot will happen during these times of your life - exciting things. Have faith.

Keep yourself busy, yo.

Focus on getting ready for school, dabble with a hobby, anything to keep you busy.

I'm going through this atm with the lovely "your parent died? Oh, that's just too real and a downer for me to handle. I'm out" response from "friends" of mine.

Not too surprised with some because they showed serious character flaws ages ago that told me they'd do something like this. Doesn't make it any less maddening because it's just fucked up and selfish to do.

So I just keep busy doing stuff. Been working on the house and gradually working on handling all my mom's personal belongings, dabbling a bit in my photography hobby, etc. Like you, I'm fine with doing my own thing, but because I've been preoccupied with things, I don't really think much of these flaky pieces of shit.

In regard to your Leo friend, it doesn't surprise me. I've noticed that some people who are fixed signs will essentially abandon friends when they get into a relationship. Nobody else matters except the dick they're riding. It's sad. You can't just ditch and neglect friends because you're in a relationship. It's one of my biggest pet peeves. I get the whole honeymoon thing, but when you start screwing over friends for a relationship, good luck finding them when/if that relationship goes south.

In regard to the concern about making new friends, just let things happen. As you get to know them, you'll start to pick up on characteristics that they will/won't be the reliable/self absorbed type. It'll give you an idea of what kind of expectations to have with these individuals. All I can say is look back over the history of your two friendships and see what kind of things about your friends would have been telltale that they aren't reliable and self absorbed.

Thanks.

Been okay, considering. I have my moments, but my brain has a tendency of tuning out whenever I start to think about the situation with her.

Thanks.

Glad it could help. It can be pretty shitty and rough when friends turn on you like that. I first went through that bs when my mom was diagnosed. People just up and disappeared because shit got too real, and because THEY felt uncomfortable in how to even be a friend, they just left.

Honestly, people are so self absorbed anymore it's not really surprising when crap like this happens. As bad as it sounds, I consider most people/friendships temporary because of this disturbing trend in our society. It's just a matter of "when" that temporary friendship/acquaintance will end.
