At age 50 as a divorced Dad of two amazing kids, I can barely deal with all that I have going on.

There are times in my life when I knew friends were having a hard time, but I could not reach out. It wasn’t a matter of not wanting to be in contact. At those times, I was also trying my best to keep my head above water, and I didn’t have the time, energy, or emotional resources to deal with anyone’s problems beyond my own. Does that make me a terrible friend or a struggling human?
