but think that i’m not adequate for her. i try my best to be there for her, but sometimes, i think i cause her more pain than happiness. and sometimes i think that it’d be better for her if i were to back out of her life just a little bit, but then i can’t stand to think about losing her. selfishness is the shovel you use to dig a hole for yourself . . .
How to be my best friend's best friend
How I did it: When I originally made this goal, I had a different best friend. We had been best friends for over a year and I still didn't feel like I was her best friend. All along, I had this one other friend on the side who was always there for me and always took care of me when that "best friend" upset me. After a while that "best friend" didn't want me anymore. I didn't really want another best friend after that, and tried not to become attached to anyone, but I ended up talking to that friend who had always been there through everything more. After a while I realized that all along, my real best friend had been right there, sort of waiting for me to realize that. And now we're best friends and she's the best friend I've ever had.
Lessons & tips: The person you think is your best friend really might not be. Your real best friend could be right in front of your face and you might not even notice it.

woo!! we mates again!!
got called for coffee a few weeks ago and we been cruisy ever since – enjoyin each other’s company recently, she’s crashed at mine a few nights… bit full on back into the swing of things, but i think especially while she temporarily livin with her friend in a one bedroom place, to be able to get a way for a bit is maybe good, since she’s really neither here nor there…
but likin it ;)
my best friend is my ex. who i know is avoiding me as much as possible at the moment to aid her own independant growth. which is fine. just miss her. it’s so hard to stay away, but if i’m the one that steps forward first then she runs scared. we were best friends when we were younger. times change – but i want some part of that back. just wanna be there – wanna be an option again.
