Friends that you had to let go.

I have a very small circle of people I consider true friends....very small circle. I feel like if you wouldn't help me hide a body than your not that good of friend. I have known this small circle for over 30 years. I had a friend that I grew up with, we were friends from Kindergarten all the way through High School. We partied our asses off back in the day along with other friends but, there comes a time to realign one's priorities and he has never been able to do that. We kinda went our separate ways. I will see him around once in a blue moon, we will nod or wave as we make eye contact but, that's about it. Over the summer I saw him at a cruise in and, just walked right by him. My wife kept telling me I should go say hi to him which, I refused at first. She kind of kept at it so, I walked over and chatted for a minute and we went our separate ways once again. There were other friends in that group that I cut loose also. It is what it is...
