Ways I Lost Friends


Weird, sad, unexpected, my fault, his, whatever the reason may be it all ended the same.. one less person to call friend.

let's start shall we.

I lost a friend because (of):

1) A Girl - Simple. We liked the same girl. She can only like one of us. In the end, the girl chose, one guy was the happiest boy in the world, one was cursing the other from the bottom of his bitter heart and a friendship had gone.

2) Body Weight - When you are hanging out with the fat kid at school, it just doesn't do wonders for your popularity. I didn't know what "quality over quantity" meant back then, so I chose to have more "friends".

3) Distance - I'm sure everyone can relate to this. Some friendships aren't just mile-proof. More so if you were 8 and mobiles and emails weren't at your disposal yet.

4) Nothing - People change? They get sick of you? Whatever it is, this is the most cumbersome so far that I have encountered. There's just too many questions. Especially, if he doesn't care to even explain anymore.

5) His Sister - I told him his sister was hot without any malice intended. I got a punch as a reply. Tragic. Well he is Arab. They marry their sexy cousins.

6) Wrong Impressions - You thought he was a "chill" guy, turns out he is a pathological liar. He said he has 5 girls dying over him and a dude, all at the same time. right.

7) I graduated (Primary, that is) - Or I switched schools. Similar to the distance issue, some friends are only friends in certain places. How many "School friends" do you have?

8) Lack of Money - I was on a budget. Wasn't able to keep up with the cost of going to his whereabouts and all his antics. So He looked for a richer guy to hang with.

9) A New Cooler Guy - He started hanging out with the new guy all the time. Everybody likes a shiny new toy right? After that you are just second priority.

10) Danger - I am not the most responsible friend that you will have, that I'll admit. But I thought good friends should stick with each other through highs and lows. This guy chose to take flight the very first sign of it. *puke* Courageous! ;)

Well.

It's true what they say. They come and they go. But some sticks around longer than you expect. Don't take them for granted.
