i hate facades.
really.
i sat at lunch today and listened to three people rant about how one of my confidants is a jerk, or at least that is how they perceive this person. i hear bad stuff about them constantly, yet i still hold them in regard since i've seen the changes they've faced and i've helped them through those changes. Even if not all those changes were for the better, i helped them and they helped me in my tough times.
i think that yes you can change your outlook on people, but i'm not going to change just because other people do. they may not be the best person in the world and other friends may tell me avoid them, but in all honesty, i think it's better to stick with them despite ridicule because i trust the one "jerk" more than i do those advising against them.
