I have lot of friends and I dont really fall out with friends.
For me, if you are my friend, you are my friend. If you are not, I dont bother with you and I wont even bother to know your name..

When I was in school, had loads of friends and we were those group which other classmates thought we were group of bitches and snobs :P
Always hung out with the cool guys and never ran out of boyfriends and dates haha.. those were the days :)

But as you get older, you become selective of who are your real true friends are..
And you become disapointed when you thought someone was your true friend, and in the end you find out she is not... It hurts, cuz u take friendship seriously as you 'age'.
It is not easy to make true good friends. It takes time to get to know that person and to accept the flaws. Someone who you can trust and tell everyting and you know this person will be there when you need her. You are truly happy when things turn out well for her. You are sad when she is sad.

Ah well.. let bygones be bygones.. I still hav friends who I can trust and call up anytime of the day :)
