What a difference time can make. When I first started this LJ account, I was dealing with an important friendship that had fallen to pieces. Although I still don't understand exactly what happened or what I might have done to contribute to things falling apart, I feel like I've grown a lot from the whole thing. Yah, I know, it's taken long enough hasn't it:)
I was thinking this week about the friendships that have grown since then, some old and some new. I realized I'm actually having to plan times to see people. I feel so lucky to have that many awesome people in my life! I used to want one best friend. Now I'm not so sure. I love the variety of friendships I have now.
I think one reason losing that friendship was so hard was because I had planned around one person so much that i wasn't keeping in touch with other friends the way I should. For those of you who stuck around, I really can't thank you enough!
There seems to be an opportunity to rebuild that friendship that I thought was lost. I'm not sure how close I want to get. I know there were other things, big hairy important things, going on in her life back then. One thing is for sure, I'm not pushing any of my other friends aside again. If that means no BFF well, I think I'm ok with that.
