Hi, I have found that friendships are like flowers, they have to be nurtured in order for them to grow. If you perform a small act of kindness, you will get one back. Unfortunately, a lot of people prefer their computers, mobiles, ipods and mp3 players for company instead of going out and making friends . Why not invite a few people you know to a cafe for coffee or to your place?

i think there are just 2 possibilities: either you have true friends right now but may not realize it, or you still haven't found one yet.. and by the latter, yes, i am telling you that in time you will have true friends whom you could really trust and share your thoughts with... friendship is a mutual thing.. you can never attain true friendship when it's just one party doing the effort.. maybe right now those "supposed-to-be-friends" weren't able to exert that "effort" that should've made the friendship work.. or maybe the issue is with you too.. that, i can only speculate.. maybe one thing you can do is don't close your doors on people who would want to be your friend.. acquaintances are good, but having friends is better.. being friends with someone, it just comes, and then you'll just realize that you became friends.. just don't be frustrated and dwell on depressing matters.. cheer up ok??

it all depends on how you make a relationship with others.

There will be. Be patient, and put yourself in environments where other good smart people are (school, etc). You may also be surprised by friends from your past who turn out to be closer than you expected later on. I agree that it's almost rude so many people saying 'i want be ur fren' when what they mean is an acquaintance.And it's good to have many acquaintances, it helps you in business later on. A friend is something closer, and friiendship may take time to develop.
