Well according to a survey, “Half of your friends don’t count you as one of their friends”. At lease not at the same level. Some people rank dey “friends” as a 4-5 out 5 and didn’t even get rank as a 2 by in return.
That’s right people… most ah your “friends” lying to you. Well lying might be a bit harsh, they just doh want to tell you that you doh really add as much value to their life as you might think you do or as they add to yours. Jus Sayin!
The temptations had it right:
“Smiling faces sometimes pretend to be your friend
Smiling faces show no traces of the evil that lurks within
Smiling faces, smiling faces sometimes
They don’t tell the truth uh”
This one I had to sit down for, they actually needed to do a survey to figure this one out. Did you know that, according to another survey: “Most Of Your Facebook Friends Are NOT Your Real Friends”. Whaaaaatttttt!!! Whaaaaatttttt!!! What is this tomfoolery!!! That cyah be right. Just yesterday I put up a picture of me raking the yard and everybody like it. All 1444 ah dem, So nah, is not true. All a dem is meh friends.
Animals have it right yuh know. It doh have no grey area, is either yes or know. If that dog (Cujo) doh like the other dog (Fido). Cujo doh pretend, he will jump on Fido and buss ah few bite in he tail and call that George. That way Fido stay away from Cujo and everybody happy. Fido know who he real friend is and he stick by Lassie side from then on. I mean after all Lassie could save him if he fall down a well (after Cujo push him in of course!)
But no… we humans go around faking it. Not them wicked and miserable ass people. dem just wicked and miserable so dey jus doh know how to be civil so we not including them in this. Well leave out the psychopaths and murderers too. Well yuh have to also exclude people who doh like deyself and dem who doh like other people.
Well that doh leave us with much right but now from that little bit you have to figure out who really doh like you and just pretending.
Well I know i have some a dem people in my life that I does just tolerate but you know that mean that the ones that I actually like, might actually be tolerating me! Oh lord, what have I done? I wonder if I really have any friends boy!
I leave you with words of Whodini: (not the magician eh people, check the spelling!)
Friends. How many of us have them?
Friends. Ones we can depend on
Have a Wonderful Wednesday!!!

Also there is another saying: Keep Your Enemies Closer Than Your Friends
That’s right Delores , keep your friends close and your enemies even closer!
If you make me sign a contract when I borrow “real” money from you, then we’re fairly equal friends. I know this because I was comfortable enough to ask you, and you valued my friendship enough to make sure we don’t fall out because of it.
