first thing i thought was "eww, tomatoes." I just wondered who would eat a big salad for breakfast. 
But the story behind it is so sweet and happy I decided not to say anything. |

That's great, Nick. You seem to have ended up in the right place, not only geographically but also emotionally at an unusually early stage of your life. Not many people are that lucky.
I have a few friends that I feel really close to and perfectly comfortable with, but only one of them is in Sweden. That's both the beauty and the curse of having had a somewhat international life; your emotions get stretched all over the globe. Sometimes that makes it hard to focus on what is right in front of you. I often feel like I'm in limbo these days, my life being neither here nor somewhere else. | |

What does that have to do with salad? 
Kiddin. 
Okay, I read the thread Fauxie. Me and my best friend aren't talking much. Mainly because her mom died a year ago, and ever since then she heavy into drugs and I just can't help her. We've totally grown apart in the last year, and we still talk every day but it's more out of habit than anything. I had a crazy year, and when times got tough I found that my friends from highschool, who I only talked to like once every couple months, are my true friends that came and bailed me out, when I REALLY REALLY needed them and no one else was there. Then I have church friends that are my age and have kids my age so we hang out, and do the kid thing together. Then I have my mom who I can't stand, but what am I gonna do, yanno? I have my husband, who I obviously don't hav ethe best relationship in the world with, but it's getting there. As, far as guys before I was married, I pick losers, and the one good fuy that I had I was engaged too, and cheated on him every time I had the chance, including with my current husband. 
The only person that ever loved me for me was my Dad, but he's dead now. 
Thee end. [Edited 1/20/07 5:08am] | |

Fauxie said: Here's a picture of my breakfast:
A seemingly innocuous thing, I admit, but this was the breakfast my friend Ple and my mother in law were up quite early this morning making just for me. They had to walk to the market to buy the lettuce and stuff to make it. It got me to thinking. I don't have many friends here in Thailand beyond Mon's family (just Ple, who lives here much of the time, and a Thai friend of ours who lives in Ireland). I currently have an on-off friendship with an Aussie guy you may remember me mentioning in previous threads of mine, but we've kinda fallen out and this time I'm in no rush to patch things up again. Other people I may have mixed with in the past I've cut myself free from. I'm happy with those around me now because I feel completely comfortable with them. I know they genuinely care about me, they're generous with their time (more so than money since these are not well-off people we're talking about by any means), have my best interests at heart, and I find myself all too happy to reciprocate and try to be a better person because of them. It feels good to be surrounded by simple, uncomplicated love and care, and to give this feeling back, freely and naturally. There's no drama. Often it's in the little things, but mainly it's feeling comfortable about expectations and with peoples' unique personalities. I know where they're coming from and that makes everything so easy. So I guess what I want to know is, what are your friendships like? Do you surround yourself with good people, good influences, or do you find yourself keeping possibly harmful relationships going? Have you had to cut people loose from your life, and why? Are you happy with the people you have around you now? yes i have had to cut harmful people out of my life. i used to endlessly give folks the benefit of the doubt but at this point in my life i do consciously make the decision to let go of people who are negative influences. i've even had to draw a line with my friends who are on and off and on and off medication. don't get me wrong, i believe in the three chances rule. but i have established limits and i do enforce them. i think it's wise. i've had to say: "look, i love you but unless you are taking your medication i cannot be around you" or "look i love you dearly but you are drinking way too much and as long as you are doing this i cannot be around you" and that sort of thing. | |

I've been very lucky indeed. I have many friends. I have one best friend and a handful of true great friends. These people really have gone out of their way for me in many situations. As a matter of fact a lot of Org.Friends have gone out of their for me in many ways. So I consider many here friends as well.
I'm not the kind of person that uses the word friend lightly either. M MyeternalgrattitudetoPhil&Val.Herman said "We want sweaty truckers at the truck stop! We want cigar puffing men that look like they wanna beat the living daylights out of us" Val"sporking is spooning with benefits" | |

Fauxie, I like your description of what a good, peaceful, positive, loving friendship looks like. That's a very good model.
I have a long history of troubled friendships and relationships, due to confused boundary issues I had with my parents. (I've gone to therapy and done lots of work on this) I have often been attracted to men who teased me, in a bad way (BAD BOY SYNDROME here too), and friends who used and demanded things of me, like your Aussie friend. I had low standards of how I should be treated and did not make conscious choices of what I wanted from relationships. I tended to put up with abuse and not hold my own, and let others determine the emotional path of the relationship -- whether that be jealousy, possessiveness, neglect, or anger from their end. 
The good news is, however, I have recovered quite a bit. The patterns have changed dramatically and I now try to nurture only positive, beneficial relationships and take things on my own terms. I now actually enjoy people and feel nourished by them, rather than experiencing dread and depletion.  | |

Why do I feel moved to defend my salad? Firstly, I don't like raw onion either, but tomatoes are delicious. Yes, it was a bit on the big side, and I ended up eating throughout the morning. The dressing was also too sweet. But it was the gesture. | |
