All this distance, Years of sweet resistance

I know I always go on about how much I HATE people, but sometimes they make me curious. Like one of my friends. He's unbelievably smart, he's attractive, he's an all around good guy, and yet he has this issue, with what we call "The Friend Box." the one where you put people who you either need to get over, or don't have feelings for. My friend here, just puts everyone in the friend box, he skips the risk step of the whole thing. And I think I might have helped him realize, with the combined affect of a breakup one of our friends had, that he can't keep doing that. That it's ok to take that risk. That jump off the cliff into insanity. That sometimes Infatuations worth it, and sometimes it's not. But whatever failures love may bring you, and love will bring you a lot of failures, you have to find a way to take them and do better the next time. If you stop looking so hard for one specific mold of person, so many people become available to you, that you would have never take a second look at before. It's fun to meet new people. And if all else fails you gain a new friend, and friends are always nice. :)
