    Eh. Not the best article but I appreciate the sentiment.

    I certainly agree with it. I think that there’s a level of friendship that I never allow others to crack unless they were bridged in as members when we were young.

    All the people I meet now are “acquaintances”. They’re nice, I’m okay to reach out if I need anything, but more often then not they’re the partner of someone else. I smile at them. I tolerate them. I might even have a drink with them. But there’s a distance there that you can’t crack.

    It’s like that great 80s movie, “Stand by me”: “I never had any friends later on like the ones when I was twelve. Jesus, does anyone?” https://youtu.be/l7r-R61W1DQ

          Not parent commenter but to me it’s just someone that writes well that is rambling and leads nowhere.

          I guess the objective is not to answer but to think out loud and be relatable, so some might enjoy the read. I didn’t.
