I dont think anyone NEEDS friends but it is really is lovely to have some, my best female friend and I are like sisters and we share so much and give each other so much support in times of woe. I wouldn't want to be without my friends but at the same time I do like my own company.

Re: Women or Men

Not sure to be honest... I have both but nothing surprises me these days by either gender.

After a bit of questioning about the fault on the TV or video recorder, I'd often look out at the garden and talk about that. Also about the dog, cat, a house feature or just anything and was never 'forward'.

I have a best friend from school, who was a bridesmaid at my wedding in 1969. We keep in touch, but apart from sharing family news etc, we don't discuss our innermost thoughts. I prefer to keep them to myself, I don't even share them with family.
