Are there rules that govern friendships?
Or is it a friendship as there are no rules?
Boundaries or limitations that exist to maintain an agreement spoken or unspoken
Be it simply respect or understanding
If there is a law.. what is it?
Underlying most interactions is a desire to be heard and accepted
To share
Often though.. it can be a cry for help
Pain masquerading as anything but...
And exploitation begins
of give to get (selfish) or get to get (usury).. get to give often feels best, if the intent is genuine.
I suspect its possible to be friends with anyone.. if one is open enough.
All those silly 'hangups' we have can be laughed at.. and laughed out..
yet its not always that simple
Friendships are often a natural progression when people have things in common or a similar world view..
What is difficult though... is to maintain friendships with the scornful or hateful, especially if your experience of them caused you pain in some way.
Friendships are a joint enterprise... difficult at times perhaps.. but very rewarding.. in more ways than one
