I'm sorry you don't appreciate my philosophy...it's like I said, I love them. I really, really do. They're the only reason I'm a person I like to be. I owe them everything, and I never forget that.
But after long experience, I find that my relationship with them is much improved if I have the opportunity to vent regularly with my friends. It doesn't mean I love them any less, or treat them with any less respect.
