friendships

where do you draw the line in friendships when enough is enough? what do you do when after so long ... you have nothing in common and cannot relate to each other anymore?


i've struggled in the past with trusting other women in friendships and it's definitely hard to find true friends who really understand you and actually know what's going on in your life. everyone gets so caught up in their lives, as i have. it's hard to keep investing in friendships that will never be like they once were.

no one likes to be vulnerable in any situation. not just with a significant other but with friends as well. i have no problem talking about things openly but, it's always hard to get that conversation going. Because you will play through the scenario in your head and eventually decide whether it's worth the energy or not. And most of the time you decide it's not and leave it be.

everyone wants to feel appreciated and included in someone's life. just always remember it's a two way street and meeting in the middle is what friendship is supposed to be about.

pet peeve: hearing about problems someone is having when i think they're at fault for their own actions. i'm not sorry about it. especially when things play it repetitively and there seems to be that common problem

pet peeve of myself: having that annoyance while still becoming inspired by someone's continuous ability to have faith&hope.

it's the balance-need in my life playing out.

since adult life has really started to kick in full gear this past year and half, you really start to look at things differently. your career, life goals, friendships, family, everything. for me, i've really learned to start appreciating things in a different way then before. as i've gotten older, i've created more appreciation for those expressing value in the same things i value.


Everyone needs a friend representing each of these things
