Bonding a relationship

Broken Friendship - One needs to work hard to keep a friendship going but nowadays with so much that one can do friends have taken a second place.

There was a time I would bend backwards to keep a relationship going specially with extendedd family or friends but these days I just drift and never bother to strengthen if I am hurt. Is it that I am contented with virtual friends that gives me enough opportunity to interact at a level I am satisfied?

I tend to drift away from alot of people.Some friends i see every once in a while,where as others i see nearly every week.As for family well sometimes i tend to step back abit as i do not like some of the things that they do with their lives.I think life is alot less complicated if i keep myself to myself.

Life sure is less complicated if we keep away those who affect our lives in a bad way. That is my mantra too.

I guess your virtual friends give you enough of a connection that you dont feel the need for real flesh and blood connections. I still am one of those bend over backwards people. I feel the need often to hear a human voice and to know that someone is real in my life. Virtual friends can be good too if you keep them in perspective.

life is full of making relationships. It is to make but it is difficult to maintain. The simple ans is accept the reality. that means know the person completely and don't try to change him/her for your sake.and also communicate with each other.
