2.

I saw an old friend today. She lives a few hours away. We have know reach other since pre k. Possible earlier than that. We also went to a private school until 8ty grade, so it was small. Not to many options for friends, but we did good. She was more girly (still is) and I being the tomboy. Sometimes she’d make me feel bad, or be so emotional I wouldn’t know what to do. Which probably made her feel bad as I think back on things. She’s in town, so we’ve hung out. We had a little distance for awhile while I dated a horrid person and she and I had different interests. But we’re back. But our meet ups always start slow and slightly awkward. I’m not very social inclined to begin, but she is. Eventually we get the ball rolling and don’t want to stop chatting though. Funny how it happens. I’m sure I will always love her and count her as a friend. In high school tho, she went to public while I continued in private. We did different things and made new friends, but my cousin also went to that public high school. My friend wasn’t always nice to her and I didn’t like that. It became one of those situations where, when with person A you talked bad about person B. Then while with person B you talked about about person A. It made me so uncomfortable, I realized they were just different people. They didn’t. I wasn’t one for being any kind of confrontational either. I wish I would have stood up for both of them, rather than talk about their more negative qualities. Everyone has them. Especially me. Those two helped me realize that even though I have negative qualities, it didn’t mean people liked me less. Or at least, I hoped they didn’t.
