When an old friend (?) knocks on your door out of blue after several years, it surely feels weird. The weirder thing is that the person disappears when you respond to the knock on your door. When things like this happen, I could think of only one thing: it looks like they are bored for those few seconds.
It is such a surprising thing how people vanish from your life apparently for no good reason (rather I should say for no reason at all) who used to be one of your close or good friends. I was talking to one of my friends about another mutual friend who vanished like this few years back. My attempts to contact him went in vain. He never returned my calls and chose not to reply to emails. When we were talking about him, my friend mentioned that the other friend has been going through some tough time. While on the one hand, I wasn't willing to take that as an excuse, I'm willing to give them the benefit of empathy for I know what it would feel like going through a tough phase in your life.
There is a reason why I say that a touch phase of one's life can't be an excuse for giving up on friends. Definitely not for permanently moving away from your friends. That just sounds lame. While I can understand that there would be glitches in the connection during that phase of time, I find it difficult to agree that just because someone is going through tough time means that they shake some of their friends off. Especially they aren't the ones who are reason for the dark phase.
When such talk was going on with my friend, I said to him, "let's note waste our time talking about people who aren't worth it..!".
