Another thing i noticed, is that some people invest themselves in friendships, as later they want something back in return. "I did this for you my friend, now you owe me". But is this really friendship?
No, that is not a real friendship at all, but unfortunately some people are built that way. I enjoy giving more than anything and I never want anything in return. For me a real friendship is built on trust, understanding, and being able to be who you are, as well as being able to have fun with that person as well of course.

A question i have... How do souls relate to one another? I don't think that "friendship" exists on that plane... Only love or indifference? Also, i don't think that "hate" exists there either...
Love,
Ileana
I think real friendship don't have any rules or limits. I may don't|less communicate with some of my friends due to some heavy reasons (like destinations, lack of time...)but probably, our souls relate, and when we finally met I feel like i saw him just yesterday. I don't need anything from my friend - just friendship and communication. And what a funny things - i can and want to share smth with my friend. I give and get smth spirityal. But people tend to change over the years. Some times i feel smb want to use me... it is sad but it's hire time to cross him out of my list of friends Lena

Everyone I meet start out as my friend...until you prove you're not.
oh no this is ridiculous . ive just met u and now your my friend until u prove otherwise. more like your not my friend until you prove otherwise i cant fathom calling a random stranger my friend but this just goes to reiterate what i stated above people far too often throw around the term friend. this is point and case no offence dont take none

QUOTE(sianeth @ Nov 5 2009, 01:41 PM) Friends are the family you can choose  I like what you said Sian. I have just 2 or three real good friends. They are from back school years. I am friendly enough, but I don't trust easily. Other than these 2 or 3 friends, the rest are (friends in brackets as I call them) or acquaintances. It's nice when we meet, chat a bit, but I cannot trust anyone. I don't share secrets. With the real friends it is very different. Even if we meet every 2 or three years, the feeling is the same as if time has not passed at all. Friends are the family we choose to be with just what Sian said. http://www.travelpod.com/members/greekcypriotPALM TREE AVENUE -LARNACA CYPRUS 53 PHOTOS.
