Friends?

We are faced by the fact that a friend, no matter how wonderful and how exciting, no matter how desirable, may not always remain a friend. In a way, that realization creates a certain sadness in me since I know that circumstances in my life and in the life of my friend may cause us to draw apart without our really wanting to. Perhaps it will be because of our careers, or maybe we will physically move away from each other because of other factors and the lack of communications and interactions will cause our friendship to die a slow death. It will not be because we want to be so but because of unintentional neglect. So if friendship is to be saved, both parties must do their part. If they are willing, then they will find a way. In order to be a genuine friend, we also have to get to know the real person. I (just like anybody else), personally , am a mixture of many character and personality traits. Some of them are very attractive. And still others are downright irritating. I am not this or that. I am this AND that. If you are to love the real me, you must know the real me. And sooner or later, I must be willing to risk exposing the real me to you when I already feel comfortable to do so. This is, however, not too much for me to give because I am what you already see, so to speak. What you see is what you get. There is no other way I will allow you to look into me, if you are sharp enough and have a keen mind and years of experience looking into the hearts of women, then, perhaps, you will be capable of discovering what I am all about, even if I do not trust you. But then, in spite of me and not because of me. It will be because you have taken and not because I have offered. But then again, enough of the too serious stuff. I believe I'm nice. Can you be my friend? I don't bite.^^
