Virgo or not, some things kill you inside

Is it a virgo thing? I know we're known to be "caregivers" but doesnt everyone feel like total crap when they let a friend down?

I recently let someone down by simply being unavailable. Had I known to what extent I was needed I would have been there. Now, it's killing me. Talk about beating myself up.. Yeah, I have that covered

I know exactly what you mean....I just called it off with a guy who I was talking to for 3 months. He wasn't there for me emotionally, physically, hardly ever communicated with me. So in everyone's eyes I was better off....Well I feel horrible about it. I am literally beating myself up over it. I guess it's just a virgo thing..

Yeah but you have to realize, when people know you don't say "no", they will start abusing you. I have an aries family member and for him, if I don't show boundaries he doesn't seem to understand that my time isn't free either and I have my own plans.

Very true and I totally get that.

The friend I'm referring to is my best friend of 25 years and the ONE time she needed me, I wasnt there. I've been so wrapped up in my schedule and just didn't make the time to pay attention to what she was telling me. Now, she is in the hospital. I know she's where she needs to be and I couldn't have fixed that but should have taken the time to be there like I always promised I would.

I take great pride in my friendships and feeling like I let her down is truly ripping me apart inside.
