    True, but people do things they shouldn’t do all the time because they are struggling. Like if your depressed friend flakes on hanging out, that’s “shitty behavior” too. Are they are bad person who you should ditch? Or a friend suffering that needs your support? In both cases, it seems to be the latter.

      If they need my support, they can ask for my support. They’re asking for money.

      If you can’t open up to me enough to say “I need your help,” I don’t think we were very good friends in the first place.

        So, a depressed person who flakes on hanging out is a bad person you should ditch.

        You and I are very different with our friends.

            You answered the question indirectly. Or intentionally avoided it because you don’t want to admit some inconsistency. I figured the former, but maybe I was wrong. So which is it?
