Friends. I did this once, and this will be its sequel.
Friends, we have an abundance of them. You think that the people you know and talk to are your only friends? If you see Facebook or Friendster, there is a link between the people you communicate with and the people you don't.
Everyone is your friend, if you don't know the strangers passing by around everyday, they are the type of friend I call a '3 Seconds Buddy'. It's the type of friend who passes by, take a glance, and continue what he or she was doing, occupying his time of up to 3 seconds. The longer you spend time with a person, the better you understand him/her. In 3 seconds, you obviously won't know much about the person. When you complain you have very little friends, you are lying to yourself and wasting precious time. Why do they complain? Simple reasons:
1. Too Lazy
2. Not Open
3. Always Passing Judgment
4. Bad Attitude
Just do the opposite mentioned above and you will have friends in no time. The world is full of friends, it depends if you want to foster that friendship or not. Remember, some friendships are best remained in that 3 seconds time period.
Even after being friends, there is a process to gain ones trust. Long or short depends on the characteristics of him/her and yourself. The process is up to you to create, it not fixed or anything, it comes naturally. If you don't continue to strengthen or maintain that bond between the two parties, day by day it will wear off, slowly cutting the strings that tied them together.
Sometimes, after being friends for a long period of time, we still have doubts on that person. Why? We don't take the initiative to communicate, we don't understand him/her. Waiting for the other party say the first word ranges from seconds to days, months or even years. Sometimes we do not know how to communicate properly. We don't make rapport(I shall explain this another time), express our feelings well, thus leading to misunderstandings among friends. This is one main reason why friendship is lost.
When you have problems, you can't handle it yourself, you have to share. There are Internal and External factors that gives support to solve that situation. Internal is your mind and thoughts, but it is the External factors that fuel the Internal ones. It was the people and the media who supply you with information and help use your mind better. Solving it External means solves you problems quicker than compared Internal, but using both is still the fastest.
But how do you know who to share your troubled thoughts with? Which friend will keep that what you think is 'confidential', and who will just gossip about it? Sometimes you know them for a very long time, but their character speaks for themselves. Even if that whoever is your best friend, having the characteristics of a gossip queen/king, or the prince/princess of teasing, why tell even if he is your close friend? He will just tell or leak it to some fellow gossipers and sooner or later, it's like the entire world knows whats going on. Just like that, the friendship you and him/her shared is lost. Either their attitude changes, or they will never hear of anything confidential.
Friendship is easily lost and difficult to gain. Both parties are responsible for the breakup, not one. Everyone's different, finding a true friend is easier said than done.
This might be stereotyping women, but it is a fact that women tend to gossip at least 5 to 6 times a week.
Well, today was a warm day. Normal lessons, extra Chemistry lessons, skipped remedial. Went for Physics tuition, and then Mathematics tuition.
