Friendship as stated by C.S. Lewis, is the most unnatural of all loves - one seeks another not out of need, but out of want.
Friendship is not affection, when we are used to each other. Friendship is not eros, when we are tempted to go beyond the unsaid line. Friendship is truly such when one turns to look at another and say, "What, you too?"
I think I am looking for such friendships. I've some broken, because of my undesirable habit of depending on them, and getting emotional when they are seemingly closer to another than to me. Yeah I am some kind of a one-friend person, when one can really mean the world to me.
Maybe a few years down the road I'll turn back and smirk at this self right now: I am with like-minded and close-knitted friends who I enjoy sincerely, and I am confident enough to not depend on anyone for security anymore.
As for now, I've to learn to forgive myself. Her. Her. Okay, let's learn.

It seems as though quite a few of you in Project Blook are experiencing and learning about managing "mutability of human relations" these days.
Read the latest post in "Dear Gillian" blog in Project Blook.
