Dear Pill, it's been years since I last shared something like that with you. Thanks for being my listening ear and I'm glad I still have you. And, for real we should meet up. Say next week? Hope your aches will get better soon. By the way, I would love to see your 4kg naughty cat and adorable hamster. Dear Alex, you've been one of the best listening ears despite you having to study for your exam. Sincerely, do appreciate all those positive pictures you sent over. They've helped. Smiles. Dear Rach & Mel, Esther, Shirley and Shux, you girls have definitely made be feel much better after pouring it out. The heart-to-heart talk helped and I'm blessed you've got my back. Thank you girls so much. Love you dearly.
A friend though may not agree 100 percent with you but its the words used, their understanding, care and concern.
Life always has its up and down seasons. No full 365 days a year, will one be happy nor sad.
One just needs to pass that stage and all is well again but during these low moments, what is really needed is not friends that get irritated with you, then roll their eyes and think that the problem is ridiculous/a small matter. But, rather a listening ear and a shoulder to lean on; being a good support system, and not making you feel worse as you already are. And, adding salt to the wound is a definite NO NO.
Friends/partners should also be understanding with each other. Sometimes one party may be busy at work or at school and may not have time to reply. However, it is important to make up for it after work or before heading to bed with just a simple reply/message, or a date to keep the relationship going because it does help to make things better. Your friend will feel known that he/she is still as important to you as you are to them in their lives.
I do have a fair share of friends that have walked out of my life while there are those who have stayed. If you are in the same boat as me, it's always good to reflect if you have been a good and true friend, and vice versa. Treasure those who are still in your life. Don't let them fade away. They are just important as your family.
Love,
Ashley.
