Letting go...

[Shadow]

I think it also depends on how easily you fall in and out with people ... Dan1089, you said that (and I quote) :-

Making friendships can be a very stressful period

Do you find yourself the kind of guy that prefers to take his time when assessing whether you want to be somebody's friend ? Or are you perhaps one of the "I have a lot of acquaintances, but few true friends" kinda guys ? Or do you befriend everybody as best you can and see how things develop from there ?

If you find that you really want to befriend certain people, then I think you're naturally placing a greater importance on their friendship than that of others, and so whilst the rise is greater, so too can be the fall ...

There isn't anything I can really suggest to alter the situation, as there's nothing wrong with it from your end certainly ... it's just an observation, so I hope I don't offend x
