If you base who you are friends with based on any one specific superficial factor ( gender, ethnicity, clothes, etc), lol. Just lol.
I’ve been really paying close attention to everyone that I surround myself lately. Mostly because I’m trying to figure out who my real friends are and who are not. One of the main things that I’ve realized is that the main reason that I like the friends the most that I do is because they are completely 100% nonjudgmental. They are the ones who are open to befriending everyone and will be just that. A friend. You don’t have to look, behave, or think a certain way in order for them to associate with you. They are accepting. They are the one’s who I am closest too because they genuinely care about me, not the way that I look or act. They are true friends. Because when you base your friendships on one specific factor, then honestly, you’ll never have one true friend. Because you’re not really friends with the person because you like them, you’re friend with them because of that one thing. I understand that you could get to know them and find out that you have more in common than you thought and that’s great. But that’s not going to happen all the time. It all boils down to no one is perfect. Just because someone likes the same music that you do, it doesn’t mean that they are going to be a very caring and dependable friend. Same goes for everything else. Essentially, these people are searching for the perfect person in their eyes, and sorry to break it to ya, but that’s never gonna happen. Maybe if your broaden your horizon if interest in people, you wouldn’t feel so forever alone all the time.
