i used to have one but our relationship gradually became mechanical. she started to put me on the back seat every time when it involves her one of many boyfriends. i started to feel used when i called her many interests to figure if they like her too and when i asked her to do the same for this guy she said no. i always feel like the sidekick. i am trying really hard to save our friendship but i think i am the only one who is doing so. i don’t think we can be considered best friends anymore. she didn’t even tell me she was on a college break. i really want a BFF that i can rely on and totally be myself because it feels great when i had a real BFF.

How I did it: I started spending a lot more time with a friend that had always been there but never had a strong friendship with. We really connected and with time we became so close (finishing each others sentences, sharing everything etc) We have spent heaps of time together and really bonded and had so many fun times and hopefully heaps more to come!!

A lot of people have a best friend. I dont. I have friends but not even one best friend. It seems like everyone is hiding something from me. I feel left out and untrused all the time. IT MAKES ME SAD!!! :(
I’m growing a little tired of boyfriends. I’d just like a best friend. But all my best friends keep falling for me.

I have just had an epiphany! My problem is not that I don’t have a best friend. Taking into consideration my personality traits, I doubt I could ever have one, and not because it’s my fault or something but because I have a strong need for independence. That’s fascinating :D I don’t want a best friend :D I want people around me, but I also need my space.
My whole perspective about a best friend has changed. Indeed, I need people that I can trust, people that would be there for me when I need something. But I already have this and I feel satisfied. In my other, idealistic opinion, a best friend would have been always there, guessed what I want, shared my everything. And I’m too independent to want such a thing.
I have my boyfriend, but I don’t think he would consider me his best friend. And I have people that I go out and drink with occasionally.. But I want someone I can tell everything to and who can do the same with me. Its difficult to become that close to anyone because I am so introverted, but it would be nice. I haven’t had a best friend since middle school. I was so shy all through high school. I had friends but never felt like I was ‘best’ to anyone. And throughout college, my boyfriends—first Nate, now Erik—have been the center of my social life. I have to put myself ‘out there’ more if I’m ever going to achieve this goal, though.
I am giving up on this task, not giving up on people in general. I just think while you can have a best friend who is with you but if you go somewhere and do your own thing there is no way of being as good friends and you contact each other less and less until you are no longer friends. As I am always traveling and moving on I can never stay with one person, maybe one day I will settle down but I do not want that to happen as I wish to remain a wondering spirit as I enjoy breaking my own barriers and seeking my own dreams.
I used to have a lot of close friends…but no longer! The 2 closest people who I might consider my “best friends” fill different roles. My mother…and my boyfriend. It would be nice to have someone who is just a friend. None of the other “baggage”. There are certain things I can’t share with either of them…things more appropriate for a friend. Yeah. That’s about it.
Well I had one when I was younger then she said that she didnt want 2 b my best friend anymore. Lately I’ve been thinking more and more of having a best friend. I know that he/she is out there maybe not in this country, he/she could be anywhere

I think i am giving up this goal. In the light of the recent events, I do not believe I will ever find a true friend. Therefore, I will stop concentrating on this goal.
Things that I wish for in a best friend. I know some of these are abit weird, but its like my ideal Best Friend
Someone I could turn to when I’m feeling low
Someone I could tell anything
Someone I would trust with my life
Someone I wouldn’t mind phoning (I hate using the phone)
Someone I could talk for hours on end about all types of things
Someone I could open up to, share what I think, my emotions
Someone I could go out with, and end up in weird places lol
Someone who would love me unconditionally and give me their council if I needed it.
But the most important one, someone who I could do all of these things for, and who would call me their Best friend.
