A friendship where you're always trying to be considerate of the other person, always worrying about what they think, always responding to every single text, always seeking their approval and then finally connecting with them, isn't friendship at all.

About This Quote

I have a friend who is my best friend. We spend every day together, we talk all through the night, we hang out with each other, we do our activities together. But when you get to know him better you realize that he is really close to me, but not in the way I thought, because he is always trying to be considerate of me. He always tries to listen to what I am saying and make sure I am happy whenever I am upset.

But the problem about it is that I don't want him to think about my feelings or anything. I don't want him to worry about me or try to make sure everything is ok with me. I just want him to be himself and for me to be myself.

It's like he wants me to change for him when it's not necessary.
