Part 1. We are all different and so are our friendships.

On the first episode of season 3 about friendship I talk a little about how you and everyone around us are so very diverse. Our needs and desires in a friendship are different (besides the obvious traits such as trust, honesty etc.)  Some seek deeper family like connection, some  don't and some just need a basic friendly acquaintance to fulfill their social world.  And all of this is ok. 
Yes. I believe in my core that life is more beautiful and fulfilling when we do life with each other while seeking meaning connections but the reality is in some cases it's not practical for everyone OR the whole friendship making  or keeping game is still new and uncomfortable.  
But I think it all starts with asking yourself one little question...well maybe two.

1.) What am I desiring or need in my current friendships or new ones in the time of my life. 

2.) Expectations of others. What are my expectations? Are they practical, simple or do you have such high expectations of your friend's that it's no wonder why things are one sided?

We are all humans just trying to figure things out but when it comes to figuring out life with different types of folks we want to invite into our lives things can get kind of complicated BUT it doesn't have to.
