Are friends forever?
Having alot of friends in your life may seem like it's a good thing and also it makes you look like you're popular but how true are they to you and how well do you know them? Throughout my 20+ years of living, making friends is not as easy as ABC and you see in television and movies. This is the real life talking. You don't just expect to be friend with someone by just approaching them in public and be like "Hey, let's be friends forever". Maybe I should try that and see the results someday. I wish it was that easy but no, no such thing maybe in the older generations or preschools. I'm not sure if in this generation children still does that? I'd be surprised if they do especially with their high tech phones and electronic devices their parents buy for them at such young ages, I think they can barely walk straight home from school. The truth is making friends is not that complicated. It's just people especially in this tragic society that we are now living in. There are different kinds of bad people, some are judgmental, shady, shoddy, egomania, two faced, jerks, plain liars and worse of all, racist etc. That's not even half of it. It's just fucked up. I'm not talking about every exisiting human in this universe not all are bad, infact it's only a few which is rare to find. Can you imagine how hard it is to find friends what more than finding true ones? Forget true love at this point. Be cautious who your friends are especially those you labeled them as "bff". Speaking from experiences, I don't believe there are even such thing as true friends but just good friends. Short story, I once had a "bestfriend" for more than 6 years and she decided to call it off for some guy she just met for only a month. So far that's the longest relationship I ever had. The saddest thing is I totally saw it coming. People come and go and there's noone to blame, just lessons to be learned. You just have to accept it and move on. Not only that I even watched this show called "I Killed My BFF" on Crime & Investigation so enough said because clearly the title said it all. Scary isn't it but some of my experiences are scarier too but the scariest part of it all is my love life. I'm not saying it's impossible, just hard. It takes two hands to clap in every relationship. When there's relationships, there are trust, faith, hope, war and broken-hearted. Been there so over that. Bottomline, friendship and love are pretty much similar. The ending will depend on how much you are willing to sacrifice to save that relationship. I don't have much friends back then and even now. I can't lie but it did bother me before but now as you grow older and wiser I realized that your family can be your friends too. Friends are just accesories, it's either you have it or don't. You can go around the world and search but it's not easy to find the ones that are long lasting. Just be glad if you found one.
