Re: QOTD: Wednesday, February 25
I have 2.

1) If they try to convert me to their point of view. My best friend is a USian, a devout Christian, whose politics fall on the right side of the spectrum (don't worry; she hates tRump)., and I, an atheist with left-skewing politics, just accept one another for who we are. We have a lot more in common than some ideologies that, in the end, do not matter to the other. They are personal. But I have ended a friendship with a bloke whose opinions on gay people were spouted at every opportunity, and when gay marriage became legal he even gave me an "Adam & Eve, not Adam & Steve" t-shirt. I told him I supported the right; it wasn't going to affect me and it was going to make gay people happy - why argue? After a week of him haranguing me over this, I haven't spoken to him since.

2) When they demand time, support, help, everything else from me, but will not reciprocate. I just spent a day as a voluntary in-patient; the ladies at the pub have been so nice to me, giving me support, so I know they are friends. That is a good feeling.
