Let me tell you ‘bout my best friend…

article image placeholderUploaded by @TheOriginalYaYa
I want to be a person that values my relationships of all kinds and am always aiming to make sure that I'm doing my part so that it is a true two way friendship, right? Two way street, not just a one sided relationship of things. You can't carry it all yourself, it eventually just deteriorates. So they are pictured here with me and my one friend that I've known since elementary school. We can call her Celtic. She and I are very similar

Adult #friendships that stand the test of time. #friends

I've been friends with them for over 20 years, and I've been thinking about it lately because I'm getting married next month, and I have a group of my close girlfriends, like, three of them in particular, and they're just constantly checking on me and being like, how can we help? Let's do this, let's do that. And it's overwhelming. Like, it feels really great

And they can come and go in terms of frequency of when you see them, but they're always in your hearts. And it's great that you have a particular group that just you could hang with locally

Resonating well or what

The only discomfort at times is kofi and I do have mixed feelings. But we get over it. Nothing is perfect in life. We have ups and downs, but we could all talk about it and we smooth it out. That's how this friendship has gone a long way. We love to travel. We travel every year and we do cruises. Me and Goofy are always tagging each other up, asking what's our future plan on the cruise? Let's do this, let's do that

Male best friend

We did try on two different occasions to have a relationship, and it was one of those things where family friends, circles were just like, you all are real cool with each other. Why haven't you all ever dated? And I was like, okay, I guess we'll give it a try. Listen, we had no intent or purpose of why we were giving it a try

Special male #friends and actual great female friends. #friendship

Good evening and thank you so much for your reply. I really enjoyed it and it resonated so tremendously with me because I also have mostly had male friends my entire life. It's been a very recent occurrence that I've had several female friends that are true friends in my life that I know are just being friends
