If you think friendship is overrated, then you’re not actually talking about true friendship. Skate homies, Drinking buddies are overrated. Work buddies are overrated. People who call you to hang out, but won’t show up when you need someone to move a fridge are overrated. People who you don’t feel comfortable talking about your marital troubles or the anxiety you feel from aging are overrated.
A true friend is someone who you can trust and depend on. Someone who would go out of their way to help you and expect nothing in return.
Those true friends are very few and far between, but if you find one and nurture the relationship, it can be a pillar in your life. I’m lucky to have a wife/friend like this.
It has been over 10+ years since having a close homie I guess life just gets in the way, ah who needs them anyways...
