-- Posted by Ad libitum at 2:09 pm on Dec. 13, 2008 There's this girl called Becky, who is a good friend of mine. In fact, I get on better with her than I do with my best friend Amanda of 11 years. It's like, even though we've known each other for about 2 years nearly, we both get on really well emotionally because we've been through the same experiences. I could never tell Amanda some of the things I've discussed with Becky, which makes me feel bad, but at the same time Amanda reacts badly to some of my small problems, so I wonder if there would be much point. I haven't seen either of them in 4 months, on account of being at Uni. I know this probably sounds bad, but I'd like to spend more time with Becky when I do return home for the 2 weeks. Only because with Amanda, everything seems so strained and awkward. This whole friendship probably makes me seem like some husband who would prefer to spend time with the mistress (not that anything romantic ever happens lol) I just want Becky and I to be more tactile when we see each other (like by hugging, because lots of friends do that). Plus, it would feel normal to me anyway, as we've shared so much emotionally. I don't know how to go about asking though. I mean, I'm guessing if she really misses me, then she might hug me when she sees me. Shame, as I would like it to happen without there having to be a reason. That sounded really soppy. I don't know, I feel like opening up about feelings today. -- Posted by fedoragirl at 2:13 pm on Dec. 13, 2008 Well first of all, I don't think that you should assuming that she would only hug you if she missed you.  You should hug her!
