Friendship

Lately I've been spending too much time with a guy friend of mine, Pablo, and he is a really awesome guy. I don't like him in a romantic way or anything, but he is really cool. He makes me laugh, is smart, helps me, and he also has a temper, but most of the time he is funny. Also, he always starts arguing over stupid stuff and end up laughing...at least I do. The point is that yesterday I was telling a girl-friend of mine how i really like him and how I am afraid people will think I am in love with him or something because I spend too much time with him and love bothering him, but she told me that it doesn't look that way, that he always calls me mom (because I remind him of his mother) and I call him son (because he is like a baby) and that helps clarify our relationship. I was so glad she told me that because I was afraid he would think that I liked him.

The point is that friendships between boys and girls can be really fun but I am afraid most people always say things like, "oh you look awesome together" or someone will think that one likes the other. But boys and girls can be friends without having to develop some kind of crush on the other. I mean, sure, I can admire some of my guy friends for their intelligence, or their nice teeth, or something like that, but that doesn't mean I like them. Get what I mean?

I'm just saying that thanks to God I have developed a better friendship with this guy because I love attention and he gives it to me. And not only this guy Pablo, but I think that this semester the relation with my friends have grown pretty much. I feel like I can connect better to my friends, and that I know them better most of them, specially the guys because I didn't used to talk so much to them. I am so glad that I have such amazing guys really, because at the end, friends are supposed to always be there for you and help you when you are in trouble, and make you laugh when you are sad. I love my friends and I couldn't have asked for better friends on my life really. I mean sure, they are weird...but then again, I am very weird too.

Lots of love
