Left behind

I've lost a couple of people in my life. No, not to death, but something similar, because I've haven't seen them again and I'm pretty sure I never will. They just get up, and say "we'll talk" and we'll keep in touch and that nothing will change but I know it's just a lie because I've heard this lie before. They never do, little by little they fade like an alka seltzer in water. They become like a distant memory. It's like a disease a plague of some sort, and all I am left behind with is the satisfaction of being right.
Is it because I can't seem to choose the right type of people to be friends with? Or is it because I'm really good at being left behind?
