I suppose it is true that younger people lift and lay friends more easily than the older folk do and that is normal for youngsters who have little experience of life.
I am nevertheless surprised that nobody here has had bad experiences with friendship as, because people are so different it is sometimes very hard to maintain relationships.
Some people are lucky that they can find soul-mates that they can feel completely comfortable and safe with but even these people can go off relationships and look for the greener grass on the other side of the fence, leaving the dependent ones to swim or drown. ( Sorry about the mixed metaphore BTW ).
I think that if most of you were REALLY honest with yourselves and the rest of us you would admit that relationships and heavy friendships are fraught with dangerous pitfalls.
Don't try to tell me that you have never fallen out with a friend as if you are honest and admit it you may have to remember just how painful that was.
Have I maybe struck a painful spot here ?

I've fallen out with several of my friends...and I'd rather not go into it.
I'm pretty shy, so I only hang out with a few people alot...I have three very good friends and the four of us hang out all we can. In fact, one of them just left today for college which makes the rest of us very sad...but anyway, they're the only of my friends that I feel really comfortable with, that I feel I can say anything too and tell anything. We're a very tight group. Then there's the group of about 15 people that I see semi-regularly, and then all my friends from school that I only see occasionally outside of school. So no, I guess I can't say I have that much of a social life.
oh, but i have....i know only too well how that is.
thing is. with VERY good friends..i find it hard to get into an argument that might lead to us getting upset. WE try (well..not as much try, but it comes naturally) to keep it at a joking level all the time. So it's hard to really have a fight.
I have about 7 or so really close friends, the kind that you call first when you plan to do something. We hang out alot, at school, then on Fridays or Saturdays or whenever. I've been to their cottages and stuff too. Like these are the kids of friends you've met their parents
I have two best friends so to speak. One I work with, and see her pretty much every day. The other I don't see as much, but we talk to eachother either online or on the phone every day, we also hang out and such. I'm going on vacation to Orlando with the first in a few months.
The weird thing is that at first when we met, I didn't even like the first one
And we were only introduced through the second one.
Then I don't even know how many aquaintances I have
I mean at school I see people in the halls all the time, and they say hi, and we chat and stuff for a few minutes. Or if I spot them in the street, we'll converse for a few minutes, and move on, these are people I talk to, but don't neccessarily miss when they're away.
I prefer to be with people than alone. I like places with lots of people, and love going places. But I do like being alone too, there's some days where I just wanna stay home and watch movies, or go off-road biking on my own, and just be alone, with no one to bother me.
But most of the time I like company.
My social life picks up alot during school though, what with the Friday night parties and stuff
yeah irene, your social life is quite like myne, exept that we dont have friday night partys yet
im still awaiting the time when someone finally has a party with alcahol and loud music and dancing
yeah, i have the ppl i sit with @ school.....where theres the guys and girls....maybe 20 of us alltogether? then out of them about 10 that i really like? then out of that there 3 that i love, then out of THAT theres 1 that i really really love
