This past week has really taught me, first hand, brutally, what a true friend is. A true friend is someone who will sit down with you when they know that you are a fuckup. They won't judge or just ask for apologies. They will want to know what is up with you and how to help.
A friend is someone who knows when you want to talk. Who will sit in silence when he knows you are thinking of what to say next...composing your thoughts. He'll pass a bottle of shitty whiskey with you and commiserate. He'll give you advice. But mostly, he'll be there to let you know you aren't alone.
A friend is someone who will listen...no matter what.
A friend is someone who will be there...and that's all. Someone who will be in proximity who is there if you need them.
A friend is someone who wants to be there to listen to you.
(there are a thousand lyrics I would love to include in this post...but I will leave you with just the one my friend referenced)
"Strange how you never become
The person you see when you're young"
