Friendships seem to become more difficult to understand and maintain with each year that passes. I can't figure out whether it's better to just leave something be and drift your separate ways, or have a conversation about things...and I have arguments for both directions.
I have been in two different situations with different friends in the past year in which things were bothering me and I ignored them...and now I haven't even seen or spoken to those people in any depth for probably 6 mos. I don't think you're too demanding, and I don't think it's a mistake to have the discussion - it's just tough having relationships!
"Without Christ, nothing really seems very exciting." I'm CRAZY, which does not mean I am spontaneous. I LOVE PEOPLE. Oh, I love people so very, very much. Teenagers delight me. I love books. I'm a writer. I can put a book down without finishing it if it doesn't hold my interest. My favorite color is red. I like to learn. I like when others like to learn. Abstract art. Donald Miller. Ministry. Chocolate. Men's cologne. Certain kinds of awkwardness.
