Have you ever have someone that is always in and out of your life? Well for me, it’s friends. I don’t know but I have this friend that is always in and out. She is a super awesome loyal friend but it seems as though she’s always running. I’ve never really have friends that stick because it seems as though my life is always changing and the friends that I do have I only contact them through cyber space. My high school friends I don’t even see anymore but only on Facebook. This saddens me because I want to see them all. My work friends, since I moved to Mo, I don’t see them anymore either and the few friends I managed to make in MO ended up moving away. This is why I say it seems as though they don’t stick. Well back to my friend, we were besties ( so I thought) but once I moved to Mo she turned around and found another besty. I don’t really mind but she’s keeps e-mailing me telling me how much she misses me and wants to come see me. I miss her too but last time she was in town, she never came to see me. I was a little disappointed but I thought she had other things on her mind. That was the last time I heard from her until last night. I received a friend request on Fb and it turned out that it was her. She claims that she was looking for me this whole time (hard to believe because I tried contacting her through Fb before). My husband said that I can still talk to her but keep my distance because he has a feeling that she is those type that wants to know what is going on in your life, tells you your life sucks and hers is better, then ignores you again. Yea I see where he is coming from. I’m sure some of you can relate right? I just wish things turned out differently though. I’m not the talkative or outgoing type at first so it’s hard for me to make friends but once you get to know me then I open up and get outgoing. I would say I am loyal to my friends and do what I can for them. I respect them and would not say anything that would offend them. I try to keep them but again they just won’t stick not because they don’t like me (at least I don’t think so) but because life changes. I’m not looking but I always welcome. I just miss going shopping with them or sharing my thoughts with them. Then again there is my husband, he is my lover, my best friend, and my one and only. When all else fails he is always there for me and holding my hands. Well I have nothing else to rant about so thanks for reading my thoughts today guys. I appreciate it!
Life will always change and you just have to adapt to it. I know that is easier said than done but if all else fails, as you said, you have your husband. He will be there when no one else is, so in a way he is your best friend. I have also had a friend like the one you described and trust me, it is better to keep your distance. She is not a true friend if she always thinks she is better than you or makes you feel that way. I wish you luck on finding more "besties" and you can always talk to me through cyberspace if you need to rant! :)
ReplyDeletePeople come into your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime. We open ourselves for trouble when we place lifetime expectations on seasonal people. We must learn to discern the difference. Great blog! You have a great writing style.
ReplyDeleteAlthough it does stink when friends come and go there is one things you have to keep in mind. FAMILY is always there. I have learned this the hard way and now the only people I really rely on is my family and it works.
