Friends… Why I have a few real ones
Monday, September 25th, 2006Well you meet a lot of friends in life. In school, in your neighbourhood, at work and other unsuspected times where people get together and introduce their friends to you. Friends come and go, some lost contact, some grew apart, others still bonded and relationships grow.
There are many many types of friends. Some people you know are friends because they share your interests. They are the ones that share what you like to do best, what you like and even share your weird habits. They usually do not mind you doing your own thing or tolerate your quirky or bad habits.
Some of them are there to have fun with you. No matter what sort of hangouts, movies, concertrts, karaokes, or just going to a local coffee shop to just to talk for hours, they’ll call you up and invite you there…. they never leave you behind.
Others just be there to help you or to be helped. They are the ones with problems to share, they offer help… and they are the ones you know you can count on….
The thing is i had only a few of my friends who fall under these three catergories. I had interest that only a few would like (some even detest my interests), i rarely invited for an outing (sometimes even invited myself…) and people only contact me if they need help…. Not that I feel pessimistic about myself. I just realize the fact that i’m not close to a lot of people (maybe i don’t open up), or some friends do not consider me as a friend, or they are just not worth to be friends at all…
anyway it’s good to meet new friends along the way…. that’s the positive i can look to in terms of dwindling friendships
