I believe there are friends and then there are those friends that seem more like angels. I've only had one friend that I knew morning,noon,or night would care. In the ten years we had together, there was never a single argument. We didn't always agree but it didn't upset our relationship. I think friends like that are rare.

I agree, that's a pretty rare and precious thing. I'm halfway envious, but really happy for you that you have someone like that. =)

I kind of agree. I have less than five really close friends, and only one knows most of my secrets... I guess I've always operated on the basis that most people wouldn't be true friends. It's easier when I'm let down, that way. Though psychologically I might be setting myself up for that by distancing myself in the first place...sigh.
