What does marriage mean to you?

Or rather, what does commitment mean to you?
For example, I don't believe in divorce. Neither do I throw in the towel easily.

I believe that as long as both parties are willing, things can always work out. If you were together once, it means that you once had something in common. And no matter how bad things were, it can always be resolved.

I am the sort of person who doesn't forget a friend. Once my friend, always my friend.
I know, I make it sound like a death sentence.

But still. It would take overwhelmingly startling evidence that you're despicable, before I give up on someone I know.

I mean, I would help my friend drag a dead body to dispose of if she explained the reason behind why she did it. In my eyes, my friends will always get the benefit of the doubt with me.

I will never forgo a friend.
I think it may be because I grew up with so little familial influence, that my friends inevitably became my family instead. I sought comfort from them, I derived who I became from aspects of my friends that I thought good. I have a little bit of all my friends in me.

In other words, I am one of a kind. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Okay, no, I did not go one big round just to praise myself.

What I want to point out is, that I don't give up easily. I'll always make an effort to reconcile with the people I care about...

Unless they make me despise them la, that's a different story.

So you know, I know it's different for everyone. Are you the kind who would let a friend drift away, just because you're too lazy to pop a call, or to send a text?

Because if you are, I hope you make more of an effort if and when you choose to have a life with someone else.

Thank you for being my friend :)
