Actually, I reckon I am the opposite. People are always helping me out (our lovely Fi is one of them) but I am pretty slack at helping other people out. In fact, I just recently apologised to one of my close friends for not helping her out more when she had her baby. In fact, I hardly saw her. I had started working full time and was still in party mode but that's no excuse. She also didn't have a baby shower. I was organising one but she told me to cancel it. She now regrets not having it. A good friend would have still thrown her one.
It's not that I am self-centred... well, maybe I am but I don't mean to be. So, if my friend has another baby, I will be helping her out STACKS. AND she will get a baby shower.
