I'm starting to get really frustrated by people who only want to be a part of your life when they have something to benefit from it. Call me crazy, but I thought real friendships and relationships were about sacrifice and compromise. Maybe it's true that men and women can't really be friends--the sex thing always gets in the way.
It's not even the boy friend thing. It's the girl friend thing, too. It's funny how people can throw away 10-year-old friendships like they never even mattered just because you did or said one thing wrong. As if the hundreds of wonderful, great, selfless things you did were erased in one fell swoop.
What's really awesome about my life is that all the bad, annoying things are always canceled out by the other amazing people in my life. My mom is hands-down the most caring, understanding, smart person the whole world. She's my best friend. I'm so lucky to have her when I need cheering up or the advice that I can't help but listen to. I've made some of the most awesome friends in Roanoke. My boyfriend is freaking fantastic. He amazes me every day. It's as if he knows exactly what to say and when to say it. I can't get enough of that I'm-the-only-girl-in-the-room feeling. It's something I've been waiting for, for a while.
What I'm really saying is that I hate, hate, hate selfish people.
