OK, here is one for you, Dr. Ninja. When it comes to Fubar, I am old school. When I put someone in my family, it is because I think they are my friend unless it for a specified reason (like helping them level). Should I be upset when someone puts me in their family because I am a friend, then they remove me to add someone that pays them for a spot? Or, should I just recognize that this is the new Fubar where family can be bought and sold?
Sincerely,
Questioning friendships
Dear Questioning friendships,
Whether or not you are listed in someone's family, unless there was an argument precipitating the removal, you shouldn't really matter. Some of us rotate family members frequently so that people who don't usually get the benefits of famps and such finally do. Sometimes, money is tight and we want some credits. So we sell a spot for a run, then go back to the usual lot. If you think it diminishes your place in their life, you probably want to analyze the fact that you care more about that spot than you do the person. If you didn't, you wouldn't be obsessing over it. I mean, really, are their twats that awesome that you need access to them all the time?
Just get a firm grip and get over it. It doesn't alter your friendship at all. You're just crying inside because you really want their rates and can't have them. Real friends know their place, on and off fubar. They don't need to be family added to know where they are in your heart.
