we always loved our best friends.. we have them at times when we really need them. there are a lot of times that we got hang out. and there are a lof of times that we are really close and that we really are close.. but however, there are times that we use to be the best enemies .. not just once, but oftentimes..sometimes, it is hard because the person whom you thought to be that close to you, would oftentimes be the person who would make you feel you are wrong. does it have to be that way? instead, our best friend should be the one to encoruage us and to guide and correct us, not to condemn us and tell us that we are really wrong.. hmm, that's what i feel this day... huhu

we all are humans are jealousy is imbibed into us. till the time we are alive we are going to be the same. and lets not forget our best friend is also human so the same qualities present in us will be present in him also. sometimes we do get possesive about our friends which is obvious and good for every relationship. they are our best friend and want that everything that happens with us should be good. thats the reason i beleive they tell us upfront that where we are wrong. ultimately its our own profit.

Really ? I am a bit surprised ! May be, the person may sound like condemning you, but may be trying to convince you with all the sincerety of a best friend ! I have had situations like that too ! Any way, we shouldn't lose our best friends , right ?

that is the hope that i have right now. not to lose the best friend. but at the moment of fluctuating emotion, i would think of giving up the fight anymore. but at times when we are good, i just like to be near him...

We'll whoever is your best friend, what i can share to you bro is Proverbs 27:6. "Faithful are the wounds of a friend but kisses of an enemy are deceitful." If he/she not kissing you, he/she cant be your enemy. You were just hurt because of the situation you've been through. Maybe its time to reconcile him/her back. But I hope she's not a girl. Hmmmm! I think i know this friend of yours. You've been telling me of her. "BEST FRIEND jud! We'll anyway take good care of your heart brother! Love you!

I know what you mean a bit. It can be discouraging to have this type of situation. I tend to look at it like this: My best friend and I, will be that always. Sometimes we fight or disagree, but the fact of the matter is that they are the best friend because we always work, or get past that. Sometimes my friend has really made me feel like crap, but the thing is is that way more often than not, thats exactly how I should feel. I think when you are wrong, a good friend lets you know it. Sometimes it takes brutal honesty like that to push us to be better people. I dunno, thats the way I approach it! :D
