My best friend is someone who I have known since junior high
school. Our friendship began
with just hanging out in a group of people and then in high school we became
really close when we went on a trip to Europe together. We formed our closeness through shared
experiences and talking. When we do
things together it really bonds us and that is what keeps us so close. We are not only really close but we accept
each other and all of our flaws. When we
are with each other we don’t ever feel the need to try and impress one
another. It makes it very easy to be
around her because I can be myself. We have a lot of trust in our relationship
which allows us to be confident that we will be there for one another. It also lets us understand that when we are
troubled we can trust that the other person will care about our welfare. We support one another through listening to each
others needs. This is why our friendship
is still strong to this day.
I think that it's amazing how time really helps us get to know one another. I bet, before the trip to Europe you guys were just in the same friend circle but were to close to a point where you would support each other. I have seen so many of my friends get closer after they go on a trip together. For example, a group of my friends go to Yosemite together in the summer and I did not get to go and when they came back I was sort of automatically the outcast of the group. I was no longer invited to facebook events and it was hard for me to connect with them again because they had developed their own language and code. "Remember what happened when XXX did this at Yosemite?" etc. etc.
