I'm going through a situation now, where i'm being given advice - however - their POV is showing the rift in their life.
Just an interesting observation, and they aren't any less "friends" - it's just an understanding of them as people.

It's true and I have had friends like that, but ultimately when it came down to it, because I did the heavy lifting in our friendship while still listening to their downer stuff, I finally decided moving on was better for all of us.
