Doing stupid things and friendship
Jun/091
What is the definition of friendship? It’s not “people that you like and want to spend time with”. No, not at all. It’s “people that you like and want to spend time with that still like you after you do stupid things.” THAT is the definition of friendship. To me, people who are really my friends LOVE when I do stupid things. They LOVE to hear the stories. They LOVE to laugh at me. And if they are somehow directly involved in my stupid thing, they are kind of okay with it. They might be a little mad, but they know I will say I am sorry and they know that I will mean it. In the end, it’s the stupid thing that I am doing to myself and not anyone else. Doing stupid things is the BASIS OF ALL FRIENDSHIP. That’s how you tell everything you need to know about a person and your relationship. Whether they laugh at you, get mad at you, try to help you, do the stupid thing with you, everything. Doing stupid things is vital to friendship and I guess that’s how you tell who your friends really are. Sometimes that sucks to find out.
(this post isn’t really about anyone in particular because I would never do anything stupid)
