facebook is misleading.
friends. dictionary says it is a person with whom one has a bond of mutual affection, typically one exclusive of sexual or family relations. i feel like its somebody that i would talk with and hang out but not exclusively with them unless a random situation called upon it.
i think the majority of people on facebook are acquaintances rather than friends. the majority of the people on my facebook already got cleared. ive deleted over 600 people. the ones left are people that i would nod or say hello to if i walked past them. but isn't it better to have close friends.
close friends: somebody that i feel i can talk comfortably with without worrying about what they think about me or what i think of them.
best friends: somebody who you can trust and know will always be there for you when things are down, even if you fight and always has your back.
i feel like ive realised a lot of things about friendship as i grow older. the majority of friends, even close friends disappear from your life and fade back to friends or even acquaintances unless youre able to hang out or see them regularly. the majority of people wont go to the effort to keep you in their life and at some point close friends are just going to be friends and now i know that the people i used to talk comfortably with have become people that i wave at when i walk past, maybe make a brief comment 'where you off to?'...
the thing is though when you stop everything the only thing youre left with is best friends. if youre lucky enough to be in a relationship you have your partner. if youre lucky enough to have close friends at work, you have them. family even... no.
right now, when i need help the most theres nobody. there is stress from exams. there is only cold wrapping around me right now. that little bit of light i had is dimming.
