Happy Working...

We (read it as me) all are so selfish today. And I have no qualms in accepting or saying that. Friendship the most unselfish relationship as perceived. Has become the most need-based relationship nowadays. When was the last time I called a friend when I didn’t need company for a drink, or wanted to vent or had something important to share. I always look for someone or the other when I am in pits or when I am angry or when I cant go alone somewhere. And that someone could be anyone not necessarily your best friend or your closest friend. There is no priority / loyalty list here, its first come first serve also depending upon his/her mental aptitude suited for the need. Example if I had to go out somewhere at night I cant take a gal or if I had to make a confession it cant be a guy or a gal whom I have already made a confession to say about 2 hours back or something. Remember they say you shouldn’t put all your eggs into one basket.
So when I say I am selfish, I am suppose to gel or get along with people like me who share the same quality right. Cause my friends are expected to understand that the reason I don’t call or page or rite is cause I am moody / my circumstances don’t permit / I am doing fine and don’t have an urge to crib etc etc. After all what are friends for. Some sort of shrinks, trained at you taking them for granted.
However, the big question here is if I am selfish and if my friends are my kind. Then why the hell am I feeling bad for being left alone. Obviously none of them have a need for you right now. No creative writing skills required, no unsolicited suggestion / tips on how to patio a guy etc etc. Everybody is busy and is paid to work, and not socialise with friends. So stop feeling bad about it and justify your job.
