In fact, I do remember someone else responded on a thread I created a while back that when people say they're best friends with you or even just close friends, that's probably how they feel at that particular moment in time but that feeling may be fluid and could change very quickly which makes perfect sense. I've seen people who claim they are the closest of friends and who are seen literally everywhere together just suddenly hate each others guts which is actually quite sad seeing that happen to be honest.

I’ve had “friends” like that.

Notice I say HAD. She added no value to my life at all and is not in it now.
I AM close to one person and have had close friends before. But it’s getting harder as I get older and they seem more fluid than before. I don’t expect things to last. “Fair weather friends” are easy to find but not ones that stick by you through thick and thin. Just one more close friend would go a long way. And I know some people have friends they have known since childhood, going through life together. I never had that. I don’t see how they pull that off really.
