A Friend in Need is a Friend Indeed.

I actually don't know if you read my blog, but your actions really touched me today.

Today, I was in a really bad state. I was more depressed than I have been for months, maybe even worse. Last Fall, I got hurt more badly than I ever have in my life. Since then, everything started falling apart and I became even more closed off and distrusting of people. I started bottling up everything inside and even my best friends wouldn't know any of my problems. I just became afraid to be close to anyone, and mindset was fixated on the belief that "You can't depend on anyone but yourself. So get it together and get over it because no one is going to be there for you. They're all going to leave in the end." I never shared my problems because I didn't want to become dependent, and I didn't expect people to be there for me.

Today, when you showed up at my door, I was so shocked and surprised I nearly cried. You came to me without hesitation, just knowing that I needed someone. You did exactly what I always wanted; you didn't talk about my problems, we just hung out and enjoyed our time together. No one else has ever understood that that is just what I needed. Just helping me relax and forgetting about my problems is in fact, the best way to help me. When I'm feeling better, I'll feel more comfortable to opening up to you. You are someone I can truly call my friend, and in case you didn't know this before, you are definitely someone I can trust.
