Clicking friends

Do you know how hard it is to find them? It's tough enough to even find one, let alone a few. Consider yourself lucky if you have like a few friends that clicks with you. "Aiseh! Friends only maa. What's so difficult? Just hang out at some party and you'd get a few of them instantly." Yea. You'd have tonnes of those. But for friends that truly knows you and are by your side all your life...those are the ones to treasure. Those are the ones that's rare.

Just how often can you pick up your cell and buzz someone at midnight because you were having a bad day? Just often you get to grab some one out because you were feeling bored? Just how often this person came to your mind in every activity that you planned-shopping, movies, drinks? Just how often can you drop everything on hand for some one who needed you this instant? And I'm not talking about persons in relationships. I'm looking at the perspective of friends. Close friends. Best friends. Either from the same gender or otherwise.

Speaking about that, it is common perception that a guy and a girl can never be good friends. I have never known why. People just don't believe that such relationship can ever exist. If they get too close to each other, they'll ended up getting married or some sort. No such thing as a platonic relationship! So, they keep a distance. Afraid that if they call too often, it'll spark rumours. Afraid that if they go out too often, it'll spark rumours. Afraid that their friendly concerns for each other will spark rumours. Afraid that their support for each other will spark rumours. What is there to be rumuored actually? So, is it wrong to be real good friend? No. Why the fear actually? People just have to live with the way how others see them la somehow.

Giving up a friend that you feel comfortable in doing everything together just because of something someone else said? Worth it? Would you be that dumb? Or you think you'd find another that knows you just as well in due time, so you can afford to let go? Give it a thought. It's just that hard to find someone like that. Just treasure those that you've found.

I can't say that I've found a friend that clicks. I can't say that I have not found one either. It's just some where in between laa. Still, I'm glad for it. I'm glad for all the friends I have.
