(Anonymous) 2014-07-05 12:05 am (UTC)(link)I can see what you're saying. I have never experienced the type of people who you mention in your second parahraph - those who use their suicidal feelings to manipulate people, so I've been working only with the thought of those who keep people out of the loop in mind. In a case like that, I think not being there in that instant is legitimately a case of "there was nothing you could really do" since you can't know what is serious or what is an attempt at attention-grabbing with no real intent to harm.
I also understand what you mean about vilifying friends; but I think that being there is expected in any friendship. Missing a phone call or such is excusable, you CAN'T be there 24/7 for a person like you said, but for that one moment when they seriously need someone with them? Yes, as a friend you should help. If you're not there and don't know they're right on the brink, okay, you're only human. However, if you are there with them, in person, and still can't be bothered to help? That's a problem.
Sorry about attacking you; my phrasing was pretty rude. This is something that's eaten up the majority of my life so I can get unreasonable about it. My apologies.

(Anonymous) 2014-07-05 12:34 am (UTC)(link)I've my own hang ups about how people ignore anything that might make them uncomfortable, but I also like to think that in an extreme instance most people would do good. Thanks for sharing your views, I was being prickly but it was in actuality very interesting.
