time changes. like the changing of seasons. it changes people. it changes attitudes. it changes friendships. and it even ends some without any explanation... and you're left there hanging... trying to figure out what happened. what went wrong. if it was you. or if it was just a friendship that was only meant to last for a season. you learn to move on, retaining only memories. and sometimes you even have to erase those memories. maybe they were put into your life just so you could be taught something important about life. or maybe they just really never cared about you at all...you were just a security blanket. life is a repeating cycle of friendships and relationships. you have the few faithful and true, who would never ever leave your side. who would never even think of doing anything to hurt you. then there are the ones who use you. who never make any efforts in the friendship. who only go to you when they need something. who don't care if they break their promises. now i'm not saying i'm the perfect friend. cause i know no one can be. but there are just certain things that people should know about friendships. and obviously, don't. relationships aren't one way things. there has to be mutual efforts. you can't rely on the one person to do everything. to make the plans. to make the calls. i can't keep those kinds of friendships. it's supposed to be a two way deal. it only makes sense. the truth is, some of these "friends" aren't friends at all and won't even remember your name a few years down the road.
