Its so true about what she describes on friendship. Especially the statement in blue below.
In the recent years, I have had my fair share of close relationships with male and female. I have come to realize that you cant always divulge to every Tom/Tina, Dick/Dina & Harry/Harriet. You just seriously cant.
There will be those who uses the information about you to twist it around to benefit him/her. There will also be those who likes to prod here and there to assert him/herself as being extra nosy but with no relevance but just to alleviate him/her as a ms/mr Know it All.
I have realized especially commencing 2013 that I shall have enough of being with those who makes me cringe, speak or think bad thoughts and any of the negative vibes.
I choose to be with those who wants to be with me. I love to surround myself with those who I can truly relate and can be myself without any judgements flung at me as to what I wear, say or think. Crude jokes acceptable in front of me but not behind me.
I could totally relate to what Vivy explained about. I have maybe 2 hands of my close girlfriends. They are those who I have posted photos with off and on or speak off more than once in a while.
Its these people that I can safely share my dreams, my aspirations, my positivity or any of my worries.
But only you can decide who you want to be friends with.
For me, I choose those who are real and honest to themselves, speak of good and aspires to be true to themselves wherever they are.
Your friends are a reflection of yourself. So surround yourself with good people. Insyaallah, we’ll all want to change to be better too.
Find good friends and most importantly, be a good friend too.
