I made a friend

[Android-18]

This is a post I made on a LDR (long distance relationship) forum, but I thought my chubbsian friends should know that I'm actually doing something positive in life. This is a big step for me. By the way, all of my friends have been male in the past O_o.

I felt like sharing with someone lol. I don't really have a life, I spent most my time with my bf. I lost all my friends in one way or another, but I never really had much to begin with. I was teased a lot in school, so I didn't really make friends...I'm not really sure how.

Well I told this girl at work about not really having friends, we exchanged numbers, but I didn't think she'd call. Now we talk at work, and she's gonna go with me to the clinic to see about new BC pills. She is pretty cool, and for the first time in years I talked to someone other than my SO on the phone for almost an hour.

I feel happy...but a little scared. I'm not sure what I'm getting into, and what having friends means. Is it like "Sex in the city", the way those girls act? I'm kind of acting silly, I know, but I guess you could say I'm kind of a "n00b" to friendship.

Well this is kind of a rant type thing. I know my SO would be happy, he wants me to make friends and get out more.

New stuff is always scary, Eighteen.

But I'm happy for you. Friends are important.

They saved my life more than once. But that's really not for the forums.

Frightening isn't necissarily bad, though. Just be yourself. You're a nice, empathetic person, and, I don't know exactly why, but I get the vibe that you're a genuinely good person, and that's all too rare these days. People will like you for who you are, you just have to get some exposure in the open, like your boyfriend's suggested.

And your friends here on CDBZ are always here if you need someone else to talk to. =)

Although we rarely see eye to eye, I count you as one of my mates. Hell, I count a fair few people on here as my mates.

With out me mates, I no doubt wouldn't be here, they've helped me alot though life and whats it worth.

Regardless of how things end up being, when ya can't talk to your family about it, a friend is always the next best alternative. With out them, people end up doing stupid shit. At least when you got a mate, the stupid is still there, but it's not shit.

Point of the matter: Ya friends a re there for ya even when no one else is.

I am glad, Rebecca. I am.

By the way, I was in Saskatoon yesterday. =D It's so confusing. =(

Don`t be scared. True friendship is a very beautiful thing and this seems like a good oppurtunity for one. You should consider yourself lucky to have made a friend. Don`t waste it.
