Do you have a best friend?

ulu · Oct 26, 2008

I have 2. Known them both for about 25 years. Now if only I ws that lucky in love...

Keep the post coming. ...update here. This year I've reaqainted with two best friends I had in highschool. One contacted me through a reunion site and the other ran into me at a grocery store, Hadn't seen both of them since 1991. Interesting that it's happened all in one year.

Although these two were my best friends, I would say they were the kind you have for a season. In elementary school I had one and in highschool I had three.
In the Army I had one, in college I had one, in Japan I had one and in the 5yrs I've been back at home I've had none. If the one from the Army contacted me, I'd probably jump over the moon, I've never met someone I felt I connected with as much as him.

sarah78 · Jan 19, 2009

I do not have a bestfriend, other then my mom and husband. :-( I am praying for friends, I have none. The only friends I had, were a bad influence now I would love to have a Christian friend or bestfriend, if I could come out of my shy shell.

LovedbyHim4ever · Jan 20, 2009

Yep, Best Friend is STILL Jesus!!

hisbloodformysins · Feb 14, 2009

Iron Sun I'm very sorry at your loss, I pray that the Lord will bring some good friends into your life. Have you gotten another pet since?

best Friends are far and few. Waynee Boy I'll keep you in prayer.

That's great country woman. 10 years is a very long time. I've had friends longer than that, but not a BEST friend, that's a blessing.

Sarah, I'll pray for you tonight. The same here if you remember me, I'd love to have a good circle of christian gal friends from church or somewhere. The shyness thing though, you don't want to rely on someone else. That's something you'll have to work on yourself, otherwise the friend won't feel like a friend if they are always pulling you out of your shell. At the same time, if your an introvert, its not bad to have some extroverted friends.

I have some i would consider best friends but i know im not theirs. :-(

The loneliness feeds the anger.
My husband is my best friend and I almost hate him some days.

StrongxxInxxHim, will lift you in prayer too Lonliness is only something Jesus can meet. We can have all the right people in our lives yet still alone. Reading Psalms is a good start, only the Lord can reveal to you whats going on. with love Sampa.

Same here, but you never know that may change. Lift it to the Lord and who knows , if its your desire and his, maybe you'll have more than one best friend

Thanks for your thoughts 4hurting, sounds like your subconscious is a bit of a friend, ehh? In a comical sense? And of coarse your first sentence is not true because the Lord Jesus Christ showed how much he loves you at Calvary! May you be blessed. - Sampa

4hurting · Feb 17, 2009

Sure, thanks, not counting God, God loves me no matter what, I accept and like myself, but I hate what I am, and there is a difference.
Yeah, I do my best to entertain, don't we (Don't look at me). lol.
Pity not many if any get it.

Thing is, if you could hear it in my head, the comedy duo act, how it feeds off each other.

Most people keep their thoughts to themselves, why, fear.
I live on and in fear, horrible, I should know.

But I won't be something I'm not, tired of trying to change to please people that most are never pleased.
So not gonna like you anyway, may as well, you know.
Having said that at work, have changed, so much more boring and depressing for me, but leaves them alone.

We can't all be cool, and hey I'm Todd and I surf and yeah Carol you dig and nice glasses Tommy.

Not me, I am what I am.
(Fool), lol, no actually, have feelings, sensitive, open, honest and upfront, sometimes to honest and open and detailed and so on.
Why I'm disliked and I perfectly understand that.
Because if I was not me, I could not stand someone like me.

But no one gets past the act, gets to know all of me, my many moods, the entire me.

It's we like surfer dude, he's cool, probably as bad and quirky as me, but because he says not, he is cool, liked, doh dude.
Where as I'm to be avoided, nudge nudge look whos walked in the room, well I'm leaving, staying to listen to that idiot.
But have they ever seen me crying, pouring my heart out into someones blog, and posting and trying to reach them, when I'm not being told off that is, lol.

You know.
But no matter what I do, can not win, open and serious, no, can not say that, sorry.
Daft and silly, no we don't understand your sense of humor, we reject you.

Christ knew what it was like Judas, first hand to be betrayed, rejected, denied (Peter) I'm no mug.

The act is there for a reason, let people in, laugh at me, weird man.
So why not act a clown, anyone laughs then, cool, supposed to.
If they don't, hurts, but that's there deal, tired of making it mine.

For the whole, I LOVE the guys here, seem okay, never been any where yet where they not bag me and for the whole except staff, lol, I'm treated great amen.

Blessings, Lee.

..........

We could all examine the ins and outs of why we don't have a best friend or why we feel alone, but our acceptence isn't by man (as you said about not being someone your not). Those weren't thoughts in parenthesis, btw.

Gal 1:10 has been a big struggle in the past, still is somewhat (had a struggle with it today when cars passed by laughing at me b/c I wore a ski mask for flagging traffic and froze for some 9hours in high winds- I'm still hurting right now, physically/emotionally) ......but was able to break through a lot of that some years ago through fasting, prayer and some other things. Joyce Meyer has a good book, lots of scriputure, called The Root of Rejection. http://www.amazon.com/Root-Rejection-Bondage-Experience-Acceptance/dp/0446691143 I found it at the library.

And on knowing you, I think a bit of mystery is good sometimes. Does that make sense, I'll pray for you tonight brother.

shantystar · Mar 15, 2009

no one.

tred · Mar 16, 2009

Well, besides God being my best friend I have my spouse. Besides those two I do have 1 very very good friend I confide in but then I also have several other women that I consider best friends also.
