friendship

C.S Lewis got it right: friendship is born when one person says to another: "What! You too? I thought I was the only one!"

Bounded Love
Chapter 1 “You are mine Andrew, never forget that.”His words reverberate throughout my body, his voice is pure ecstasy, and lying in his bed, euphoric. This man spirited me away to a foreign land, and I never gave it a second thought. Prince Alex of Balvakia, yes a real prince, the notion still doesn’t truly register with me, how can it? It’s something out of some BL yaoi manga from my sister’s collection. However lo and behold I am living that now! I can almost see and hear my dear sister foaming at the mouth, rolling side to side and squealing like some kawaii twat. He takes me in his arms and gently nips at my neck, I can already feel my skin flush, sending shivers up and down my spine filling my arms with goosebumps in its wake. “Are you ready my love?” I know he doesn’t mean it as I engulf his lips with my own in a kiss, lost in my own carnal passions. I take a sharp gasp as I feel the cold liquid upon my waiting entrance. We kiss once more then I feel him enter me causing me to cry out his name.

Hello Again. Before I start writing, I want to specify that I did not have the mental clearness to write these words. And second, I want to thank you for taking the time to read them.

The Boy on the Moon. Top Story - February 2021.
Riley was bored. That was the only reason she even noticed the mysterious paper airplane on her windowsill. Her grandfather had died a few months ago, so Riley and her mother had moved in with her grandmother in the country in a house that was too big even for the three of them. Space wasn’t the issue, though. It was what to do in that space. In her old apartment Riley had had video games, movies, and a thousand other things the internet allowed. Now, without Wi-Fi, all she had was two bereaved women looking at old pictures of her grandfather, mostly from his childhood, and talking about money problems. Riley supposed everyone had their own way of dealing with loss.

The Suprise
In a small depressed area of W-burgh, Brooklyn a group of friends Jamal, Jose, and Joey were constant companions looking for things to keep busy on their summer vacation away from PS 51. As it turned out this day their travels led them to a recently demolished building that was vacant for years.(used to be one of their hangouts inside while it was standing) The guys were a bit depressed as their "clubhouse" was destroyed , but they still had fun digging through the rubble looking for anything exciting or useful to them and their families.

Cancelation Friend
Everyone is flaky these days. Counting on people to be there when you need them is hard. Respecting that people are busy, and having things that uncontrollably come up, plans get canceled. Rather it’s your car is broken down, came down with the flu, or just in a funk and don’t want to go out tonight, cancelation happens. That is not cancellation friend.

Modern Bromance
Ady and I had been up late partying in Nice in the south of France. It was summer; we were 18 and travelling around Europe after leaving school, seeking girls and hedonism. And we were rushing with the freedom of it all. There’d been a few arguments, over money and the urges to see different things, but we stayed solid, ironing out our arguments over cheap bottles of red wine and cigarettes.

Why It’s Important to Have Friends
By Alice Bay Hello again! As you can see, the topic today is why it’s important to have friends. Growing up, I was very isolated. I lived on a farm in the middle of nowhere, which to this day has no cell service. I was lucky enough to grow up only a mile and a half away from a girl that was in my class. I considered her one of my best friends and I got along well with her older brother too, who was just in the grade above us.

Toxic people
Do you want to know what its like living with toxic people. It’s not fun first they’ll tell you they don’t need your money to help with their bills. But then you offer to help anyways because you would feel bad it you didn’t. So you help them right and then their true colors come out and they fight with each other everyday even thought before you moved in with them your best friend tells you there will be no drama. That was a lie right off the back and so you have to hear them fight every single day. Then she’ll through you in the middle of it and you take her boyfriends side because she’s the one who starts the fights everyday. She is a very broken person and needs help and probably shouldn’t keep her kids. Well anyways you have to quit your job because she needs a babysitter so your trying to be nice but she takes advantage of you along with her boyfriend who is toxic to because on his days off you won’t have the babysit but that’s not going to work because instead of watching the baby he’ll fall asleep and not tell anyone and the baby is not being watched. So she’ll get you on the phone and text or video chat you to go watch him because he’s father fell asleep. Plus they have a camera in their house so she’s always on it even at work and she’ll constantly text you who’s watching the baby have the kids ate have them done their chores. Those poor kids they had to clean the whole house by themselves and when both of the parents are home they’ll have the ten year watch the baby all day until noon so they can sleep in. It’s not the ten year olds job to be doing that she’s to young for one and for two none of those kids are responsible enough to be watching a baby. Living with them was a nightmare so we had move out thank god we were planning on it anyways but we weren’t on paper so we got kicked out and I’m happy we did. Because she ended quitting her job and told us that we needed to pay half the bills because she quit her before getting another one and I told her we couldn’t afford that so they got mad who cares. We had a cat there but the place where we are now wouldn’t let us have her here. They said they’ll watch her for us until we can get our own place. Well now they are keeping her because we didn’t buy food or litter for her why because she didn’t tell us that she was out and we have no money after buying food for the house if she would have told us we could have. But now I am no longer her friend because she wants to start drama and accuse me of something that I didn’t do so I blocked her and her boyfriend and haven’t seen them since. I’m done with toxic people so I cut them out of my life and I couldn’t be more happy about it. I got a good job and now we’re just saving up to get our place now. And then we’re going to save and get a car so we don’t have to walk everywhere any more. I no longer want to have friends because their all fake anyways I go to work and go home that’s about it.

Social Phobias, Prozac, and My Friend Hancock
Subbing is the perfect job for me. Heck, I don’t know if it’s part of my nature or if I suffer from an underlying mental health condition. I worked in a position where I didn’t have to get to know anybody therefore I didn’t have to make any friends. Every day, I was somewhere different. I reported to my assigned school. Checked in. Went to my assigned classroom. Prepared the lesson plan. Executed the day’s lessons. Left a report. Went home. Went to a different assignment the next day. It was easier that way.

The Moon and Her Light
I have always found that a good book was the best way to start my morning. Most mornings I go to this little café down the street. The owner, Lisa, is this nice older Italian lady that always gives me a new book to read and broaden the horizon that I’m on.

My Forgotten Little Black Book
There I was, tired and weary after spending over a week cleaning and packing my stuff before moving out to start my new adventure. As I was sorting out what was going to storage and what would go to thrift stores and donation places, I came across my old, forgotten little black book from my adolescence. Wow! I had totally forgotten about that little book. I decided to take a break, sit down and go through my little book, looking at names I had back then but continuing finishing cleaning and getting rid of stuff as I ready myself for my new adventure. It was a treasure trove for me.

A Drug Addict Saved My Life
Relationships are complicated. Everyone knows that they aren’t black and white. The best ones are in full technicolor. My girl calls me “O”. She determined years ago that I give Oprah Winfrey level advice. The highest compliment for an advice giver there is. If I’m Oprah that makes her Gayle. Gayle and I have been friends since our freshman year in highschool. I didn’t know we were besties until she introduced me as such to someone a long time ago. I agreed with her and we’ve been rocking ever since.
