I think it's overrated. One can have a close friend but to say best doesn't get to me. It was a term I used when I was much younger but not anymore. I've grown out of it. Experience has taught me that such things don't actually work. At least, not for me. </p><p>I've experienced a lot of shaky times right from my very tender days. I remember when I was in primary school. I had a very close friend who I could say I adored. He was the closest friend I had then and I prided myself in saying he was my best friend. However, after two years together, his parents decided to change his school and that was the end of our friendship. I haven't seen him once since then and that's over 16 years ago. I still don't know what happened. He'd been the one always coming out first position before I gained admission into the school. When I came, the position adjusted to he moved to second place while I started leading the scoresheet. However, we were very close as friends. </p><p>As I that's not enough, I got close again to the guy who used to take the third position. We became very close and shared secrets, secrets I couldn't even tell family members. We were like that till we got to Primary 4, the penultimate for primary school. He took the leaving certificate exams without telling me and left for secondary school. It's been like that since then and I've come to do away with the cliché that is 'best friend'. It doesn't move me. </p><p>If my close friend wants to move away, I'd bid him Farwell and wish him well. </p>","appDepth":2,"appParentPermlink":"pkry6g795","appParentAuthor":"arindinighalo","musingAppId":"aU2p3C3a8N","musingAppVersion":"1.1","musingPostType":"answer"}" |
