I am happy to announce that recently, I had been recruited in a sister-friendship group,
in a quite friendly way I must say.
Not that this should sound surprising in any way, because you know, everyone out there has their own group of close friends. But man, I gotta say, it makes me a little nervous. It's kinda like back in college days, joining a sorority for the first time. You are actually afraid of not being qualified. Having friends makes you pay more attention to what you say and what you do. Perhaps that is why I choose to have only 2 best friends ever.
So now, I'm facing the fear of not being able to be a "good friend" to these lovely ladies. Worse yet, I can't really fuck it up because they are my sister's friends. that means, I can't be a bitch, I can't ignore phone calls (thats only if they call), I have to listen to love stories, and I can't ever refuse to hang out.
You know, when you first meet a group of friends, it's fun and all because you get to really impress them with all your nice tricks, kind of like puppies in a pet store. And then after that, you are like, gee, but I already showed you all i've got. You can;t ask for more...that's the most I do in a year.
And then, in order not to be a total pooper, you really start to distant yourself from the new group of friends. It feels a little lonely but very safe in a sense. Afraid of betrayal? That's another story I will start next time.
For now, lets see how long it will take for me to become yet another abandoned friend.
