good question - I just discussed that with a friend.

I used to want my friends to be and act in certain ways, which naturally eliminated a lot of friends.

Now, I try to accept my friends as they are --- even if it isn't the way I'd act/react/handle things. Had to change my expectations though. In the end, though, that is exactly what I want from my friends, to accept me exactly the way I am, even if it isn't exactly along the lines of what they think I should be.


what do you think?
