How easily one is expected to fall into line and be expected to believe what tha friend believes. To adhere to what notions he believes is and is not important without regard to anyone elses sense of order or priorities.

Thats why I try my level best to not become friends with people....

Why go through it?


Life is great for me... Most of the time... But then I meet people online... Very few are real friends... Many say they are but know nothing of what it means... Some say they are, but are so shallow...

Someone to hold you too close
Someone to hurt you too deep
Someone to sit in your chair
And ruin your sleep
And make you aware of being alive

Someone to need you too much
Someone to know you too well
Someone to pull you up short
And put you through hell
And give you support for being alive - being alive
Make me alive, make me confused
Mock me with praise, let me be used
Vary my days, but alone is alone, not alive.

Somebody hold me too close
Somebody force me to care
Somebody make me come through
I'll always be there
As frightened as you of being alive
Being alive, being alive

Someone you have to let in
Someone whose feelings you spare
Someone who, like it or not
Will want you to share a little, a lot of being alive
Make me alive, make me confused
Mock me with praise, let me be used
Vary my days, but alone is alone, not alive

Somebody crowd me with love
Somebody force me to care
Somebody make me come through
I'll always be there
As frightened as you to help us survive
Being alive, being alive,
Being alive, being alive.


There's a kind of a sort...cost
There's a couple of things get...lost
There are bridges you cross you didn't know you'd cross until you've crossed

If you stand for Freedom, but you wont stand for war, then you dont stand for anything worth fighting for.

Just ignore me.....

I guess I'm confusing friendships with just knowing someone casually....

I think you were right in both of your posts, Marc. Sometimes long-term friendships to end as the people change over time. However, strong friendships endure those changes, the same as with any long-term relationship. But if the differences and seperation happen early in the relationship, it likely wasn't friendship to begin with.
