You're right...
It does take getting sick or a crisis to find out who really does care about you. It's amazing, because the people you think care about you the most are usually the ones who let you down the worst. Better to find out now than later, you know?

Oh and hey, you did the right thing as far as I'm concerned. It is only right for someone to care for a friend if they are ill, even more so if the relationship is more than just another friendship. And hey, if you ever find Mr. Right, see if he has a sister for me =P

It was pretty amazing to watch my "friends" scatter to the wind when I told them I had schizophrenia. Not only did they not want to be around me because I'm mentally ill, I had the added bonus of them perceiving schizophrenics as being dangerous. Huzzah. Stupid people.

Amen to that, Mia!!
Believe me...I know what this is like!! About three years ago, I lost someone I thought was my friend. I got sick and he said he wanted to know...Turns out he didn't. Instead of telling the truth, he lied continuously when I asked him and tried to blame the end of our friendship on me, saying I pressured him into feeling like he had to be here for me all the time.
I learned my lesson and hardly ever tell any of my friends anything anymore. Wherever he is now, I hope he's learned not to lie to or be so cruel to people.

I noticed that a lot of my friends hedded for the hills
when I asked for help, taking care of my mom. Sort of made me lose faith in the human race. But I now know how to get rid of someone who is being a pest. Hope you have better luck in the future..me too.

it doesn't sound childish at all. you have to include yourself in the standards you set for a relationship. you have to feel considered. if you don't, whats the point???
he sounds really self focussed...
as for your published friend. thats sad... a lot of times though once one has acheived a success, they get a lot of "friends" who don't really give a crap about them.... its a sad reality.
