2in2 -- call up the old friends and have lunch. Don't spend the whole time talking about your problems with them, just restart the old frindship. I've called some of my old friends and some of those ones that we keep saying we'll "have lunch sometime" and they've been glad that I did. Often they've wanted to see me, but just haven't gotten around to calling.
I'm sorry you're depressed today -- my emotions go up and down constantly. I know where you're at. If she's saying it's a "wake-up call" that's probably a good sign, but you've got to wake up and fix whatever is wrong. Start fixing it before she says it's too late. Don't half-a$s fix just to get by. Really fix it.
The Einstein quote is a great one and it really fits in well on these forums. Another great quote from someone on here is "The grass is always greener where you water it." That is so true. Where you put your efforts is where it grows.
