I Have People

I have people who have no interest in my life. That's OK.
I have people who seem to be listening, because they say things like "I know what you mean", then proceed with "I..." and their own story.
I have people who ask questions that leave me more annoyed than before.
I have people who spout platitudes. This is not the same as advice, but I wasn't asking for that either.
I have people who want to help me fix things. This is also not what I am asking for. I don't need anything "fixed".

What I need, but don't have, is someone who will say "I am sorry you have had such a crap time of it the last year. Let's meet somewhere and get plastered".
