Friends categories

I have noticed that I do have friends categories, they are all my friends and I love them but everyone plays a totally different role from the other. There are friends who keep your secrets, they know all about you and you do not feel well till you get off your chest what you keep hidden from others to them, they know what you need, they keep listening to you asking for details that nobody may care about to show you their concern, you end your confess with an extreme relief that somebody else but you knows. But you don’t bother secrets keepers with your everyday problems, you keep them for emergency cases, so here comes the second category, everyday friends, these who are online with you the whole day, you call them when you have bad day at work, when you find discounts in the mall, when you buy a new mobile phone or when you need someone to hang out with and you`re sure they'll be there as soon as possible since you are number one on their priorities list. But some of your everyday friends don’t like your activities so let’s jump to the third friends category, activities friends. They are these ones who share with you all your activities- jogging, cycling, swimming, museums visiting, yoga classes...etc.- If  you are in the mood of doing  a new activity all you have to do is to call one of them to spend wonderful time. My final friends category is phone friends, you don’t get ever the chance to meet but you keep in touch and you end your every single call with hopes to meet, you do like them and share with them childhood, workdays or neighborhood memories, in spite of busy life and distance that separate you from them you always find time to make that charming call.

I used to get angry from my everyday friend for not sharing lots of activities with me, or to get upset for not having the chance to hang out with phone friends till I realized that I was expecting things from the wrong person so categorizing friends helped me with looking for the proper friend in the right moment.

P.S.

You can be very lucky and have a common friend between more than one category, you can have that secret keeper and everyday friend in one friend or the secret keeper, everyday friend and activities friend also in one friend. Oh God, how wonderful would that be!!!! If you were that lucky don't let go of that friend and make sure to be a good supportive friend as she or he is.
