    Thanks for the the OP ess. I considered the OP, and now am wondering whether it will be more effective to point the gun at my temple or in my mouth?

    I have one I suppose, but not like we used to be.

    My best friend lives about 3 hours away and is in the military & going to school so we rarely are able to get together anymore. He is the only friend I have though where we will tell each other anything & everything.

    Back in high school/early college we used to be like that though. We would always hang out w/ each other and do everything. I kinda miss that, but realize that we have different things going on. It is good to know that we can still get together and things fall back into place like they used to.

    ha ha. Since I wrote this I have done some interperspective thinking and have talked to a couple of my good friends. I have come to the conclusion that, while family and work occupy much of my time, the reason I don't have any best friends anymore is my fault. Not that I am a douche to be around or anything but that I don't put forth the effort required to maintain best friendships. Manay of my closer friends are probably equally as guilty but I think we all need to just put out a little effort and it would work.

    I def need to foster more friendships outside of work though because I fucking hate where I work rt now and talking about it puts me on life tilt.

    Well said man, good job. It does take some effort on both sides, and as you said, both sides just as easily can let stuff slip, we all do.

    There are times when things consume all of our times and then we just get on the phone and say "F IT, we are playing golf Saturday" or such, just make time for it.

    I know with all of us here family is priority 1, but with me if I consider you a best friend (or whichever term we use here) then you are family to me as well.
