Id like to think of myself as more of the second then the first. But then again arent we all self-centered in our own certain aspects?But when it comes to friendship neither party should be. A friend should be loving and compassionate. One who is willing to listen, one who is not too wrapped up with his or her own problems to be there.
So I am not a perfect friend and I am probably hippocritical by making the above remark but I just want you to think about your current friendships.
Im not going to lie and tell you I havent ever said anything bad about any of my friends behind their backs but really who hasnt? Im working on it. Really I am. I usually speak without thinking and Im sorry if I have ever said anything that has hurt you. Im sorry Im not perfect and that I am not as smart as you or as pretty as you. Or that I dont have as many friends as you or Im not as outgoing. But Im confident in who I am. Im Taylor, your average loser. Im a coward but mostly silly. I have my faults and imperfections. I try my absolute hardest to be there for all my friends when they need me. When I talk to you do I not always ask how you are doing or how your day was? Do you return the favor? But where were you when I was broken? What things have you said behind my back? Do you know whats REALLY going on in my life? Do you even know me at all?
