I'm not a good person to talk to on this topic lol I'd rather have buddies then friends.. There is no expectations & if you don't talk or see eachother for several months no one cares, & when you do hook up its a lot of fun since you have sooo much to talk about!
I ditched all my friends WAY back in highschool (about 10yrs ago now), as I was sick of the BS. Everyone I know now are buddies (I call them friends, but they really are buddies). However they are all 500km away now lol. I made 3 new buddies last fri & we plan to hook up at the Muddy Moose (bar) once a month.
If people treat you as they have been, they are not friends.. it is much easier to have buddies then friends
