Depending on my goals and what i believe i can get from them i will keep those people around me. Weird thing is in that moment i do consider them closes friends. But the moment i no longer have use for them..i can easily detach from them and forget.

Those who we really care about will get an immediate response. Those who are not will not get an immediate response and from a personal experience i can tell you i DON'T do it on purpose. It just happens because sometimes i truly do forget to reply. But that takes us back to priorities.


Ok makes sense, thanks.

No, again, that's not what I'm here for. It seems that's just stuck in everyone's mind here, and that sucks.

Here we go again with semantics. Someone with HPD will interpret some things differently, and sometimes respond differently, to her environment than someone without HPD. If I have a hope of successfully communicating with her, I MUST take into account HPD. It'd be like me going up to someone who speaks strictly German, and just assuming I can communicate 100% effectively with her if I spoke only English! I'd have to at least throw in a couple of German words otherwise I wouldn't have much success!



Thanks again for the above replies.
