According to your blog I never had a real friend in my life roll eyes ..

Quoting:

"A simple friend has never seen you cry.
A real friend shoulder is soggy from your tears.. "


I don't recall crying in front of any of my friends no matter how much I wanted to .. I just can't allow myself to do so .. And no, it's not because of the so common thought that crying = weakness ..

I always take care of my own matters, and never expect anything from anyone (and why is that?) >> Simply because it's difficult for me to handle being disappointed ..
Coffee. real friends are rare and few,one in particular was in a state of depresion caused by his nature of work.(Doctor caring for people of uncurable illness)after many years dedicated to his work he came to me and cried and talked.i felt honored that our friendship was and is so strong.cheers
African, you are so sweet, and one day you will realize that it is not always necessary to carry all your burdens on your own. Some wonderful friends of mine always told me that when i share with them they have the privilege of listening. And when I refuse any help from them they claim that I am robbing THEM of their BLESSINGSsmile

This forced me to look at friendship and especially giving and accepting help in a totally new light hug

African..You will find you will feel a whole lot better if you can tell a good friend about your troubles than to bottle them up inside...teddybear

@coffeeminx & particolor:

Thanks hug .. I do get what you mean, it is just something I got used to doing ..

The best friendships are when ur there for each other without asking. They offer thieir heart & soul. They don't care if you cry in front of them...I do & I have...& I don't care if they do. When I'm hurting all I need is a good friend to listen & give me constuctive advice. You can talk about anything & everything without judgement. They are there when you need/want them the most.
