friendships.

what makes a best friend, a best friend? Just because you've been friends with them the longest, does that make them your "best" friend, because they know you the longest? But what about the friend that you've known for a year that you seem to click with better than anyone else before? Do they get to take over the spot from the person whose been there since forever?

As the best friend of someone, what are your responsibilities? Are you suppose to confront them on everything? Even if you know it's going to probably destroy the friendship, for at least a little while? I think that you're probably suppose to. But how do you do that? And what if the best friend has a significant other in there life? Are you suppose to back off and let the significant other deal with these sort of "tough" situations?

As the best friend of someone, are you suppose to respond to every message they ever send you? text, phone, emails?

What if suddenly you don't feel like you can really talk with your best friend any more? It just doesn't feel natural. You want it to, but it just doesn't. And you don't know why that is.
