Friendship

I take friendship very seriously. If I let you into my world you are lucky. Sometimes I let people in too soon. Sometimes I let people in I shouldn't. I don't ask much of my friends. I ask for mutual respect. I ask honesty. My recent experiences with people have shown me that most people don't feel the same. I don't know how they define friendship, but some people have made it painfully obvious that their definition is much different from mine. If we make plans and I reconfirm it, don't bale on me in some passive aggressive way. I would actually appreciate it if you wouldn't bale on me, but if you are going to cancel, then cancel. Call me, send a text, apologize, offer a raincheck. Almost anything is better then passive aggressive behavior. If you don't want to be my friend, then don't be, but don't pretend. A friend is a friend and if you can't do that, then don't!
