Even though I have just met you, I believe that we will be friends.

At first, I will tell you something about me and then you can tell me something about yourself as that is how I think friendship works.

Another thing I believe is that we don't really understand how people work when we are young and I think that's because we are so reckless with each other when we are young.

I also believe people think that people come and go, and I think that school teaches them that. That life changes in big movements, that one year you are this and then the next you are that. That life blends itself in as you get older and soon you will start to realize that you will watch a few, if not many, of your friends get old.

You may even get the opportunity to watch them lose their minds, or maybe you get to watch them get sick and watch them get better. You will watch as they succeed and you will watch them fail. You may even get the chance to see them get married, get divorced and get pregnant. And soon if not eventually you will watch them die, or they will be the ones to watch you die.

So this is what I think friendship means, I don't mean to be the one to put such a heavy burden on you. But you have put the same burden on me.

Now you get the opportunity to tell me something that you believe, as it's now your turn to share with me as this is how I think friendship works
