That sounds very familiar Sig. It's good of you to still consider them friends... I've found that most people feel uncomfortable around other people's grief or problems, and because they don't know what to say, they say nothing. It's not that they don't care, so you can't blame them, really. Friends that listen to you without feeling embarrassed or awkward are just rare. The 'best' friend I referred to was like you describe: the biggest worry of the day is "what's for dinner"? This can create an unequal friendship: you feel isolated because your friend has none of your problems and hence doesn't understand you, sometimes you even get jealous of their carefree, ignorant lives or feel more mature, older than them because of your bigger life experience. Meanwhile your friend thinks you're grouchy and always complaining about your problems.... LOL
