Have a best friend.

Well, I wouldn’t say she is an official best friend, but she’s definitely a very good friend. She likes to do a lot of the same things I like to do. We spend a ton of time going to art related events. I’m happy!

I have a walking buddy who takes a 3-4 mile walk with me almost every weekend and we stop for coffee. I am starting to consider her a real friend. Unfortunately (or fortunately), I let lapse one of my oldest friendships with someone I probably would have considered my best friend. There were just too many things she was doing I couldn’t agree with and might have been harmful to those around her. I felt it was the healthy thing to do even if one of my major life goals is to actually be making friends and not ditching them.

I had a best friend, but we broke up over 2 years ago and I still feel the loss. How does one even go about finding someone who can care about you and you can care about them when there is not one spare minute in the day?
