Many people expect that their friends will always be there. They expect friendships to last forever. Yet, friendships end and friends part company everyday. Unfortunately, even the best maintained friendships can end. Recently, I’ve been losing one of my friends. Not just any friend, but one of my boys from my inner circle.

Remember the days when you and your buddy would run away, without a care in the world ? Remember how you could always count on this buddy for a place to stay ? Most of yous wouldn’t have had these problems, but isn’t it nice knowing that your mate’s always got your back ?

Well forget it, because once there’s the slightest change in your lifestyle, memories may be all you two have left. A mate is someone you have known for a long time, have had deep discussions about random shit with, or quite simply the one you regard as your “right arm.” For a while, it’s all about hanging with the boys, and your mate eventually becomes the brother you never had, and everything is fine.

Recently, my mum’s gotten stricter on me, and I don’t blame her. I used to all-nighter with the boys for the whole week, but because of these rules placed upon me; the boys have been allnightering without me. I have been left behind, and the fact that I choose to behave has one of my boys wondering, that I don’t care about them anymore. He claims I’ve changed, and I don’t spend time with them enough.

What do you put first ? My family - whos been there my whole life, and will be there till the end; or my best mates - who have provided me with the highlights of my life. The ones providing me with the greatest days before I enter the workforce. Which should be valued first in this time of my life ? My Friendships, or my family ?

Losing a friend can be really tough, especially when it is through no fault of your own. Regardless of why, when, or how friendships end, there is always some pain of loss to assimilate. In the end, I have decided to stay indoors for a long time. I would not go out on weekends, jigg school, or go on thursdays. I would alienate myself to the world, unless its those days when im bored shitless.

Everybodys changing; and my mind has matured alot since then. I now have dreams. I want to get out of this town that I’ve been here for so long, and I just need somthing new. I need to start again but i can’t. Who knows - maybe god will smile on me one day and give me a hand with my life again.

There’s a change of course in our lives, different paths to be taken, different expectations, different hopes and dreams. But one thing is certain, though friendships may be lost, they will never be forgotten !
