For our friends without kids, us having kids was like contracting HIV. Since we've had Luke the number of times our friends have some up to see us has equaled < 1 time per friend. For most of our friends it consisted of the obligatory visit soon after he was born. And like AIDS if was uncomfortable and awkward for our friends. A few of them adored Luke and gushed over him but most held him like they would a cobra. Then that was it. Haven't seen any of them since. A few real shit bag friends (Beau) just totally dropped us like a bag of rocks. No calls, haven't returned any emails, nothing. Fuck 'em.
The real lesson is that the only people who will be there for you is family. And that is even questionable...

There's gotta be a gay blog out there somewhere with a post titled "KIDS" where the guy goes on about how ever since he contacted AIDS his gay friends never come by and they now treat him as if went and got married and had kids.
Well there's your blog...
Martin, I would be insulted if I were gay. It's a funny comment, but it makes some unfair assumptions about Aids and gays. Either way, it's funny.
