What would you do for your closest friends or your best friend?

Here’s just a few memories and moments, in no particular order, that stand out for me in terms of what my best and closest have done for me:

Stayed up and had random conversations until the early hours of the morning, using a Jonty Rhodes poster as a world map because that’s how weird it can get;
Recently watched Set-it-off with me because I refused to watch a sad movie alone;
Putting up with my love for cricket (which has now expanded to my love for soccer and rugby);
Dealing with me changing my mind constantly until I finally just do what I want anyway without saying anything;
Dealt with my inability to use certain words and giving me appropriate substitutes because blushing in public that much is embarrassing;
Knowing that I may be quiet in a group of people but get me on my own and I’ll talk your head off;
Accepted that I will create an itinerary when you visit me on YOUR holiday because I don’t want you to miss out on anything;
Once argued with a female (he’s male) because I was being too nice and she was being horrible;
Made me the best coffees every morning for a year and talked nonsense for an hour before work started to get my thoughts right;
Being my sounding board because having emotions to deal with as a female is sometimes overbearing;
Changing your working environment because of a function for me;
Reminding me that we all have an inner child who loves to colour;
Working with me through my complex thoughts;
Helping word my emotions because let’s be honest I suck at expressing it (but I am getting better);
Accepting my rather odd dress sense (there will always be hope that it gets better);
Indulging my fear of heights and spiders and still making me face them;
Being honest with me when it’s the hardest;
Involving me for your baby shower; suprise parties and events;
Asking my opinion and taking it into account;
Reminding me to stay honest;
Joining in on my love for doggies and sending me photos every now and then;
Enjoying M.T. Coffin books with me;
Waking me up at 5am every morning because it’s our thing;
Having the longest phone conversation you’ve ever had on the phone because I needed it;
Choosing my home to come to; to nap and/or escape the world;
Letting me treat your home like it’s my other home;
Treating me like your sister even though you have some already;
Calling me when you were upset because you needed to talk;
Making me laugh when I phone because you can tell I’m sad and you don’t ask why;
Trusting me completely;
Once having our faces painted because we’re adults acting like children;
Put up with my really really loud laugh which I cannot control;
Accepting me for who I am;
Not killing me after running 10 kilometres together even thougb you really wanted to;
Checking in when I’ve been too quiet;
and
For most of all loving me lots:-)
