I haven't had a confrontation with a friend in a very long time. And I just had one with one of my best friends. The argument was through AIM and my heart was pounding the whole time while keeping my cool. I didn't blow up, all my statements and responses were calm, even though this is AIM. I hoped that she would feel my calm, and understand I didn't want to fight with her.

I fight with my sister all the time knowing we'll get over it eventually. But it's different with friends. It's not as easy to act like nothing happened. The issue has to be addressed. And my friend just addressed it. She said we're like sisters, we bicker, and we get over it. I've had trouble in the past thinking of my friends as sisters. But after my friend's comment...it feels right now.

I don't have many friends. I just have a few best friends. And they're so great, so special. They're people I feel privileged to know, nonetheless have as my best friend.
