I never really believed in the concept of friendships. a lot of my closest friends over the years have turned into my worst enemies, and I have some mentee's who are experiencing the same thing. but trinity, what about the mentor/mentee relationship? I think that's a genuine relationship, as I have learned a great deal from the 5-8 mentors i've had over the years... I considered them genuine relationships... not friendships, but genuine relationships. so while there may not be genuine beings left in the world, there maybe genuine relationships... but your right, even those relationships, we're still using each other... however, i have found those relationships to provide me with the shortcut/wisdom/experiences i need to grow and learn faster. good post homey, i appreciate you stopping by. :) sn0w |

Kids come along and you sometimes make friends with the parents of your kid's friends or teammates. I think it has to do with what you have in common. When your married and your friend's are still single, you have less in common. And when you have children and someone else doesn't, same thing. If you manage to have and keep a real close friend ship with one person throughout all of life's changes: marriage, kids, etc... then you are a very fortunate person. Most of the time life gets in the way. You move away, etc...

You can only be a friend. If you are fortunate, you meet someone who reciprocates. As you've pointed out, such reciprocation is rare. Nevertheless, rare or not, the process is the same. It seems like a risk, but it's not, because the alternative is living lies that corrode your soul, in order to "be" somebody. There are a great many wealthy, socially connected dead people who are convinced they are truly - truly - superior for this "accomplishment."

sn0w (OP) User ID: 25965629 Canada 11/12/2012 02:23 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It's a well known fact that many women keep their real personalities hidden away from their boyfriends until they get get married and then let it all out like an odious fart once the man is tied to her financially. Which says a lot about women. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1600351 yup... I think this is what we call the debate between who you're going to show the world... the next time you meet someone, if you're going to show your true self, or your social mask. ie: if you're going to show your true self or your persona... which basically means 'assumed character' it takes invested time and effort to get to know somebody. and when you meet a woman she usually puts on a show of display thats not genuine, until she has sunk her claws into you... and then her true self starts coming out. not ALL women mind you, but most women, usually put on a front of showmanship when interacting with a man at the begining... then the real self starts coming out a bit later into the relationship. I do believe the truth eventually comes out. in that regard, you never really do know people. and you never really do know what people are talking about unless they're genuine and centered. sn0w |

Hellena Handbasket User ID: 1439176 United States 11/12/2012 02:27 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I have had only a handful of genuine friendships in my lifetime. Just for periods of time, tho'. Usually during a period of hardship or job that was really rough. I have met & had friendships just a few sterling, outstanding females. OP, I think you are basically correct. I'm not a drinker so that eliminates about 90% of any social life with "friends". I always stayed clear of drinkers or pill poppers. Stayed away from chronic dieters too. Their main topics of conversation is food or clothes. And women backbiting and backstabby? I've known some savages. Now? I am alone. And you know what? Thats just fine with me. I try to be friendly but most old women .. well... ah well, I'd just rather by by myself. Edited to add that my husband was the best friend I ever had.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 25818130 Canada 11/12/2012 09:05 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Marriages end because people grow apart. Why should it be any different with other friends? Unless a person is following exactly the same path as you in their life, or you are both absulutely free of the tendancy to judge, that friendship will eventually end entirely, or be reduced. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 25818130 I would also add that people are most capable of finding that ongoing friendship if they are at absolute peace with their own company. Truly, the success in any relationship depends on how comfortable you are with yourself. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 16764653 United States 11/12/2012 09:15 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I have a handfull of genuine friends that I've known since preschool. They are real. Women on the other hand are too petty and conniving to be friends with another woman. Except in extremely rare circumstances. But even then it is gained with the hormones that make them crazy. What's even more funny is when a woman realizes this and tries to be friends with a man. When the man only wants to fuck her. Unless he's a queer or something. But I see it all the time. Even my wife wants to hang out with me and my buddies. It's cool once in awhile but sorry ladies you upset the dynamic so you're not always invited. Besides you can't ride a snowmobile at 100 mph. Nobody wants to wait up for you. I feel bad for ladies. The only time in life they are genuinely complete is when they are raising babies. |

"If the youth of this world aren't guided with wisdom, the sins of the father will return to haunt the children." I know you don't like islam, but the koran might be right when it says that. The fact that the mentor doesn't want his mentee to make the same mistakes he made may bring him pleasure knowing that history won't repeat itself. Perpetuating the cycle of ignorance on this planet can be put to an end if we sch00l the y0uth of this nation with wisdom and guidance... and if the mentee no longer needs the mentor, I think this is a good thing. /Discuss.
