Some people claim that they have hundreds of friends. I don't judge them, I just don't believe them. Friendship in my opinion is sacred. When I am friend with someone I care for him/her, I am there when it's needed, I spend energy for this person, I love this person. Thus you cannot have that special bond with many...
I had in my life people I considered friends who proved me wrong. There is no space for jealousy in such relationships. You cannot be happy with your friend's misery. You cannot harm intentionally the one you share so many things with. We are not 5 years old when every kid is our best friend. As you grow older, you become more selective, you evaluate differently others, you build other kind of relationships.
Frenemies do exist and we don't want them in our lives. The ones you appreciate and chose to have near you are easier to betray you. They know you more, you have opened your heart to them, shared your thoughts with them, you have given access to who you truly are, so betrayal is unfair. It's like playing against the rules.
My friends are as many as can sit on a bench. We have enjoyed sunshines and we have seen storms togethers. But we never left this bench. We are there for each other and we are stronger together...
