"Just" Friends

Funny how people say that they're "just" friends. As if being friends is not nearly as meaningful as being a couple...

Being friends with someone from the opposite sexe (or same sexe if that's your preference) is.. great! I mean, being able to just see the person for who they are and not having all those sexual complications in between.. it's genuine, it's sincere. You don't have to worry about how your hair looks, what to wear today, or watch what you say. You're friends! All those minor details go away... and you just concentrate on having the time of your life.

I'm not saying that being friends with someone is better than being with them. If you like somebody, go for it!!! And I'm not saying that all kinds of superficial stuff come into play when it comes to relationships--it really shouldn't be superficial if it's somebody worth your time--but come on now, we all know that when it comes to dating, we all "watch" ourselves to a certain extent. All I'm saying is, being friends with someone is just as great as being with them.

I just find the expression "just friends" a little funny. =]

Whatever your relationships are, whoever surrounds you, just make sure you cherish them... friends, boyfriends, girlfriends alike.
