Why are you being dumped by your friends?

Saw this title on the cover page of the "teen" magazine in NTUC this afternoon. And the first thing that came into my mind, this is not a problem for teenagers only.

As we grown, the friends around us come and go. Some may return, but some, you might have even forgotten their names and looks. This is the reality of life, all start with "busy" as an excuse of losing the communication.

Come to think of it, we can continue the friendship by being the one who takes initiative to contact each other. This is just a button away since now (almost) all of us own a mobile phone and a pc. Right? Forgive me for sometimes I didn't take initiative... And I forgive you too, that when I have taken my initiative but you never reply.

Friends, are not work, not competition. It's true, that we have best friends, good friends, normal friends, hang out friends, know-by-name-only friends etc. There are different levels of friendship. But nonetheless, please don't get jealous when your friends appear to be closer to the other. This is just life. That you may have a closer friend that him or her too, right?

Friends, are not forever. Only true friends are. Who are your true friends?
