Fighting with Best Friends

Friends are made for fighting.  Sound a bit too pessimistic? There isn’t a doubt in my mind that it’s true. When you think about it, it really makes a lot of sense. Your friends are like practice for the real world. They’re there to make sure you know how to deal with conflicts people throw your way. And boy do they do just that.

It’s pretty reasonable to think that I’ve been fighting with a friend. Extremely, one hundred percent accurate, actually. This is one of my best friends I’m talking about, which hurts a lot, because sure we’ve been through rough times before, but we haven’t spoken for days other than a few exchanged text messages, and they haven’t been good.

This is my very best friend I’m talking about here. I don’t know if any of you girls have experienced a fight with your very best friend, but it hurts, a lot.

I walk onto my bus everyday, waiting to see her there sitting on the seat where we go everyday, waiting for me. I mean, she always is. But sometimes I get this feeling that she just doesn’t want me to be there. So, I guess that’s where it all started. I got a feeling, it turned out to be true, and look where it got me… not speaking to my best friend.

I’m not sure if I can even call her that anymore. But, I feel like I need to or else I will literally explode. Well not literally, but you know.

So I guess when I’m older someday, I’ll look back at this and thank her. At least that’s what all of the adults I’ve talked to about this little situation have told me. She’s teaching me a lesson… I know. But for now, it feels more like I’m being walked all over by the girl that I’m supposed to be able to trust with my life. Oh best friends sometimes…
