Why do they have to deny it?

I am the type of person who will blurt out my opinion when asked and I never think twice about a situation that involves friendship. When people ask me how many friends I got, I use my right hand and count them. I don’t care and I don’t need to lie or make up numbers or deny being friends with someone so others won’t know who.

Some people I know really have this issue with friendship. Who are their friends? Why do they have to lie about who they are friends with? Why are they hiding it and then make up stories of how much they fight or piss off this person, and yet, they are buddy buddy and hang out together all the time. Why is friendship becoming a secrecy? It was usually the boyfriend/girlfriend scenario that people tried to deny all the time for so many reasons that was “understood.”

I just don’t get it. You are friends with this person, don’t lie to me about it and say you are not or you are fighting or whatever thinking I will get hurt by your “friendship” with them. I honestly don’t care. Lying about it makes me wonder if you lie to others about me being a friend to you as well or you even consider me as one.

I wish people learn this crazy wild idea that they tend to ignore all the time; it is called honesty!

Ranting as usual!, They said what?, Whatever!
