when i entered college,i have 5 girl friends! we are always together and lasted for 3 years. from the start, we accept each other no matter who they are, thats our motto coz we believe that is the meaning of friendship. but after 3 years i found out that they counting all my mistakes or should i say things i've done to them that they dont like but not really a mistakes. they consider my weakness as a mistakes...which lead them in judging me! all along i thought that im ok with them, because i believe in that motto - the acceptance thing. and it surprise me because i believe that in friendship there is no numbers - there is no counting, only acceptance and understanding.

at first we are only 4 but as time goes by we become 10.making friends means acceptance.if they doesn't accept you of who you are,then they are not your true friends.

u shouldn't think that friends like lovers it's so simple btween lovers to accept what ever but friends can forget but after fights it's so easy to find friends but one true friend it's so hard and it wount be three for sure maybe u should think in what they ment by it why they did that when they know u don't? i think they don't care for u the same way for me my friends i'm ready to make up with them for any fault without even a sorry as long as they wount make it again but not stop in thier face and count bla bla bla i would first think oh i'm human too i have my mistakes and faults then what i don't want to stand on the other side and get b,amed like that?

I know it must be upsetting right now. I would ask them about why they never consulted you about these issues and that it would have helped you become a better person and friend and in the future that if they feel unhappy about something, that they need to come to you. this will show that you are understanding and that you still value their friendship and you won't be hurt in the future. I hope it all works out, but friendship shouldn't be about numbers or counting or mistakes made.

yeah, it's all about acceptance and that.. but friends could also make you improve on something.. but if that's the case, maybe they should have said it earlier, so you could understand what's wrong.. try to clarify the issue with them so you could understand each other.
