I make long lasting friends – friends from far away and friends from near by – but it’s not easy to make friends with me because I am a very private person and don’t like any intrusion in my private life. It takes a long time for me to be someone’s “friend” – since you all know that PB owns his own business and everyone is a “friend” – but true friendship takes a long time to nurture for me.
After 11 years in Y-Town – I’ve only a very handful of real friends – I think 5 – if i am not wrong. All these friends are steadfast and are always ready to give a helping hand when I need one. All of them are very thoughtful and never expect anything in return from our friendship. They all understand that I can get very busy and don’t call or chat with them for months. We never argue – we have difference in opinion but we agree to disagree and we always think of them and include them whenever we can in our life.
Next month, I’m planning a spa party at a local spa with 3 other wonderful ladies – with their kids involved – all in the name of getting together and spending girl’s time together. I love my friends, but I’m not always available for them – so my “real” friends understands that – and don’t think I’m ignoring them – good friends are like a warm breeze when we get together.
