Consider yourself lucky. I realized the other day that too many people are influx when it comes to their friendships and lack the knowledge of who their real friends are. Stuck in a rut - pretending to get on with people with whom they don't really share any likes or dislikes for that matter.
I consider myself truly lucky and have been blessed in my life with the greatest kind of friends.
After having recently had a mild outburst - from crying in club to singing on tables - it is in your darkest and brightest hours that you will realize who will actually skin a skinless cat for you... I dedicate this to my true friends, which I don't have many of, thus I consider you guys some real gems! In my opinion everyone needs friends like these:
1. The Guys Girl, the lady in the street who grew up with brothers and can roll the town with the best. She is your best friend, who will drink Ocifer under the table, wipe your tears straight after she wipes the ass who caused them. Blatant; loyal; crazy and always there - she ( or he ) is your twin, the VISA you simply can't leave home without!
2. The "Been there, done that, wearing the T-shirt" - this is the person you can tell anything to!!! And always count on for some crazy advice, as it doesn't matter what you think you did. They have certainly done worse and will continue to encourage the world to embrace the abnormal and break the rules. Everyone needs this person - to educate us to break free from the glass boxes Society forces us to live in. This is the person you call from the bathroom you no longer want to be in, while she giggles on the other end... and advises you what to do. I love this friend.
3. The Manly Man. Ooooh now this guy could write a series on his scandalous endeavors. The womanizer, the ultimate schmoozer - he will educate your ass woman or man. Lol - and embraces this role wholeheartedly. As a woman - you need this friend to advise you when you clearly have met Mr. Wrong, Mr. Cheap and Mr. Right Now - he will definitely keep you and your female emotions in check. As a Man, you all need this friend - to fear ( lol - cos you know your girl is checking him out ), to teach you how to treat a woman right ( but not use and abuse as is his way ), and help you pull yourself towards yourself when you acting a fool!!!! I like this guy - he knows exactly who he is and sets no superior expectations and better yet, he is a brilliant friend and will probably be willing to help you out in more ways than one ;)
4. The Soppy Puppy. So many of us fall into this category when we hit rock bottom, but some of us live here. Choosing to be a puppy on all accounts! This is the friend who has taught you to be sensitive as they have way too many feelings. The friend who makes your ears warm in Winter with hour long phone calls regarding their love problems and definitely the friend who does scandalous things when you guys go out like attract chubby bunnies... ;) But hey everyone needs a little lovin', and we all needed a little laughin'.
5. The Cartoon Character. You know him. So does she. The guy round the corner. The bouncer at the Door. The club owner - oh wait - he is the club owner (lol) . This is another VISA that you simply cannot leave home without - especially if you are planning a great night out! The friend who seems to be constantly high on life, always up for a party and a smile that's contagious even though you have that "I'm scared" look on your face. Their hands are permanently rounded with a shooter glass intact, arms constantly full of people as they are addicted to hugs and their lives often filled with other crazy people! This is the ultimate cheer up friend...
6. The other brother... You know, the one you don't always have to call or see but the friendship remains in tact. The one you phone when you crying in club - because truth be known this is one of your ultimate best friends. The person who truly knows you but doesn't always have to see - because they understand that while life happens - we will both always be there for one another. Always. ( Now I sound like a soppy puppy! ) lol.
I wish these 6 friends upon all of you ;) , that I have, because life simply isn't the same without an extended family you were actually able to choose. Through the up's and down's; Sin City trips and Flights on Jet, friends will certainly come and go and there will be a random few... that leave a permanent footprint in your heart and mind and certainly in all your Facebook photos. ;) Whopa.
