I think I need some new friends. Sometimes I think I have too many friends, sometimes too few. Im not sure I really need any friends. Ive been thinking a lot about friends and friendship lately. Someone I know recently fired his best friend. Is this even possible? Can you terminate a relationship that you considered to be the best? Can the circumstances, however horrible, actually make you reverse all your atoms til they believe that this person is no longer your best friend? I dont think so. He was slowly losing respect for his friend so he thought it best to move-on to a new best friend. Again, Im not sure thats possible. Do we really pick our best friends? Maybe we have some control over the initial contact, but as a friendship grows I dont think we have any realization that this is becoming our primary relationship. Common interests, shared acquaintances, then you wake up one day with a best friend. Howd that happen? Too late...

I have a best friend who I havent talked to in about two years. If I picked up the phone right now, it would be like no time has passed. I dont need to be in constant contact to immediately feel the bond. Good for me.


No offense to the comicking, these are just my observations, based on the absurdity of his situation.
