Friends?
How many of you would proudly say that you have found yourself a real best friend? I believe the amount of people who will do that must be rather pathetic. Especially in our current generation. Out of my friends, I can say only one didn't disappoint me. Maybe because we share the common interest, but at least he still remembers me. There's a few questions that I will like to ask you people.
Would you want to make your friends look inferior to you by treating them like some fool? I wouldn't.
Would you go back to look for you old best friend when you have found yourself a new one? I would.
Would you stay by your friends side when they appear to be unhappy? I would.
Sometimes thinking for others doesn't mean you'll get the same treatment back. Seriously, how many people nowadays will think for other's feelings? People tend to neglect other people's feelings and only care for their own feelings. Here's an example.
When this guy is happy, but his friend seems to be unhappy on that day, this guy will not care at all, he would just go on to play basketball and enjoy his day while thinking that a few "Are you ok?" will do the job of cheering his friend up. However, when he's sad , he will expect his friend to accompany him. Isn't this disgusting?
If you friend asks you to accompany him/her to eat during recess, but you have a test to study for the next day, would you accompany him/her or would you rather study for your test?
If I really had to study for a test for the next day, and my friend come asking me if I can accompany him/her to eat as there was no one with him/her, I would take my book along and be with my friend as he/she eats and I study.
I'm not perfect, but at least I am able to think for people.
I think I've seen enough for the past few months, and here's a piece of advice to you people. Before you do something, think of your own reaction when someone did the same thing to you. Are you comfortable with it? If you are, then by all means do it then.
If you want to be a good friend, be one in the real life, some occasional words of encouragement on someone's blog will mean bullshit if you have been a lousy friend in real life.
