Relationships
People who only contact you when they need something are just acquaintances, not friends.— Rick Warren
What this quote means
A friendship is shown by who shows up when nothing is needed. If someone only calls when they want a favor, a ride or money, the relationship runs one way. The quote gives you permission to call that what it is: an acquaintance, not a friend.
When to share it: For anyone tired of being someone's emergency contact and nothing else.
Who said it?
