You Got A Friend In Me

What is friendship? How do one define friendship?

To me, friendship is as simple as ABC. Making an effort to be one. One where we can laugh about silly jokes, one where we can talk about nothings, one where we can cry about romance movies.

What about those where you called/address as 'BFF' (Best Friend Forever)?

To me, it works the same as any other friendship. What makes you special or different from others are the deepest and darkest secrets that you know. One that will understand me better than anyone else. One that will never be upset over silly pranks/jokes we play. One that will make an extra effort to be one.

Today, one of my friend told me that one of my BFF unfollowed me on Instagram because I do not like her photos neither did I replied to her Tweets. They were rather upset bout that matter. To me, it's a laughing matter. Because I know her well enough (at least I think I do) to know that things like this is rather ridiculous to be upset about. It doesn't hurt me that someone is upset because I choose not be an active social networker and that I choose not 'like' her photos, but it did hurt me to know that she measured my friendship with her to the number of 'like'(s) on her photos and the reply to her Twitter. To let herself call me a BFF, I do have doubts.

Friends who confide in me because they trust me, friends who are there to just listen to me rant, friends who are there to give me a 'punch on the face' over certain issues, friends who do not care how I look, are all friends to me. BFF works the same but I will make an extra effort to keep your trust, to listen when you talk, to tell you ugly truths that you do not wish to hear, to tell you that you're beautiful and special because you are.

I made this post not to rant on the things that happened today but to remind myself that your friendship is a keeper because of everything that we had been thru.
