This is your friend that you can contact when you are upset who is quick to help support you and be there for you, but ultimately what support they provide does not last and it is not all that healthy anyway. You will lean on this person whenever you can despite knowing they are not really all that helpful.
Gabriel was upset over Lola - AGAIN! He text Lisbeth and soon they were speaking. He poured out his heart. She listened and helped soothe his dispirited soul. Unfortunately, Lisbeth was his emotional microwave popcorn friend. An hour after they spoke he was heartbroken again. He made some microwave popcorn and wept into the bowl watching Baywatch.
