25/365 One Way Streets...

I feel like I am a very good friend.  I would do anything for the friends that I love.  Some of these friends aren't even SUPER DUPER close but I would still really go out on a limb for the people that I really like.  The only time I ever get sad about my friendships is when I receive nothing back.  In most cases, I don't really even say anything about it (except to maybe Andrew & Kim) and then I am usually quite forgiving and after a few days of cooling off I am able to invite again, or text/call again, etc.

I know that people are really busy but I have realized that there are only like 3 people who would really go out on a limb for me (not counting family).  I don't want to say too much because I definitely don't want anyone to feel hurt and if you are reading this and think I am talking about you, then all I can say is "somebody may have a guilty conscience"... I probably wouldn't admit to anyone that this was about them either, I just don't like confrontation. I would never survive in a debate club.

The reason I am even typing this is because it really bothers me and after being built up over a period of time I have to just get it out.  I am trying a new experiment and see how long it would even take some of these close friends to contact me.  In all honesty, some people that I considered really close to me haven't contacted me in weeks, not even on facebook!  Sadly, I think that in the past I never really went through with this experiment because I was afraid what would happen.  I really do think that if I didn't call/text certain people they wouldn't even talk to me anymore.  I guess that is reality... we fall out of touch, we change, we move on.

Cheers to the amazing consistent loving friends in my life, you know who you are!
