FICKLE FRIENDS BY KIRSTEN WEIR

When you heard the words ‘friends’, what thoughts that runs through your mind?. What memories that you remember with them? Happy or sad? Happiness or disaster?. Well, it depends on someone’s experience. Before, I’m not actually a cheerful person. It is hard for me to open my heart to my friends. It is also hard for me to open my mouth or we can say that I’m afraid to socialize with people. That is my biggest problem.  Sounds unbelievable, but that is the truth. After I joined this course, it changes me into a different person (in positive side) and now I got a lot of friends. Do you think by having a lot of friend can make your life perfect? think about the quality, not quantity.

I’m attracted with the first paragraph of this article that says ‘HAVE YOU EVER had a friend who makes plans to hang out but cancels when a better offer comes along? Or a buddy who helped you through a bad breakup, then flirted with your ex? To scientists, these problematic pals are known as ambivalent friends, or we can just call them ‘frenemies’. I think this is the combination of the words friend and enemies. I actually never had this kind of experience, but I’ve heard that from my friends. It happens to a lot of people and it is a common thing that happens to every human beings. Someone that tells those things never happen in his or her life might just don’t realize it yet. I think I’m in the same situation as them.

We can’t trust everyone in this world. That is what everyone told me to do. As for my opinion, you can give your trust to that particular person, but you can not give your 100 percent trust to them. This is not because of the behaviour of people that can’t be trusted, but it can prevent you from hurting yourself. If you give your full trust to people, what if in the future they betray your trust?. It will surely hurt you deeply and you will refuse to trust the others again. It is very dangerous for yourself if you lose your trust to people because it will change your perception towards others. You will tend to think negatively towards others and avoid from cooperating or socialize with people.
