That's a hard lesson to learn, as they're often really interesting people who are usually really nice too, but they're just not interested in sticking around.

Do people actually network for friendships though. I mean, I've seen people pretend to be friends with people and then turn on them at the first chance they get, but I've never really seen it in proper friendships.
Maybe I'm just lucky? But friendships requires effort from both parties, and the people that are networking, don't seem to want to share that commitment. Don't get me wrong, my work involves constant networking, but I'd never consider those people friends.
