Who’s your best friend? – Blog Project Day 18
My Wife (Happy Birthday Lady!)
Now that I’ve given the obligatory response, here’s why that’s the truth.
In my life its seemed that my ‘best friend’ has sort of shifted through the different phases of my life. They were the people I talked to most, who I hung out with most of the time, and the people I could rely on(outside of family). So as I grew my friends changed leaving an interesting assortment of ‘Besties’. The level of interaction and friendship also changed as time progressed. Here’s a breakdown of my friendships over the years;
Kindergarten – 3rd Grade: Brad
-Not much going in terms of friendship. I never went to his house or anything outside of school. I guess we were on the same soccer team at recess.
4th – 6th Grade: Randy
-I would ride my bike to his house after school to play Goldeneye.
6th – 8th Grade: Brian, Jake, Jared, Zach
-Most of the interactions were still at school, but the friendships were getting deeper. Parties, and sleepovers and such, junior high was great right?
9th – 12th Grade: Brian, Mike, Seth, Zach
-During this time the friendships really solidified. Most of my memories of high school involve these guys.
College: Jeremy
-Best roommate I’ve ever had(and I’ve had some ‘great’ ones). Too bad it only lasted a semester.
Marriage: The Lady
Some of the friends have carried through the years and others have fallen off. I think its interesting to look back over them and see how I’ve changed since then, and how our relationships have changed as well.
Have your friends changed as you’ve gotten older?
