Chapter 148:

Friends.
It's indeed rare to find individuals who accept your opinions on events, even those involving themselves - especially criticisms.
They may not need to agree since the point is actually to merely accept.
& at this very minute, my definition of friendship has taken another leap.
Best friends are something I've long grown out for.
I mean, I see no point in classifying a "best"; it serves only to break hearts of others equally important but yet carelessly neglected.
(& partly, I don't believe that someone can be there for you all the time.)
Good friends are something I cling on to.
& the new insight mentioned, is simply the line between slight superficiality & candidness between friends.
The level of closeness, to me, is proportional to the amount of truth you can tell this person.
Truth regarding yourself, and regarding her.
When you find that you need to hide some truth from her, there's something wrong.
No?
I understand everybody holds something above friends.
For some, it's studies.
Others, love.
Me?
My principles.
But to have someone who can genuinely accept well-meant opinions regarding their weakness from another, imo, is sign of trust, respect, and loads more.
Fortunately for me, I found (at least) one.
Along the way, I thought I has a few.
But things happen, and change my perspectives.
There are some who pretend that they do understand.
But at the end of the day, twist your meanings.
I wonder, at times, is it meant as jokes that can be lightly brushed aside, or behind the light-hearted words, are deeper insinuations.
& such is why I get irritated & exasperated.
Sometimes, I beg to scream: Do you necessarily understand my concerns?
I doubt so.
Sigh.

Today, I saw her in school.
We both pretended that we didn't see each other.
