You know how some people replace sex with chocolate? I wonder if I just replace best friends.

In the same amount of time it has taken to upgrade Gabe from casual friend to half a social circle, I seem to have forgotten the person he's replacing.



I mean, not entirely, of course, but now, instead of wanting to share news with Brad, I go and text message Gabe. Maybe he's just more accessable, being a part of the cell phone age where Brad isn't, but it makes me a little sad. Do I just forget my friends if they're not around me? I can't say it's because I've been busy, because I really haven't been, so what am I doing? Am I the person that I look down upon?


I'm sorry to any of you it seems like I have forgotten. I haven't, really. I think I just get swept up in the poeple that can physically surround me at any given time.
