Unconditional friendship freaks me out, but in a good way. It’s not something I ever had before blogging, except with Break Boy and His Lovely Wife, although I didn’t understand that I had that with them until I started experiencing it in the blogosphere. Now that I have it with many of you I get overwhelmed by your generosity…
…in a comment.
…in a post.
…in offering to listen to me vent.
…in confiding in me when you need to vent.
…in inviting me to do something with you if I’m in town.
…in offering to do something for me that I’m incapable of or insecure about doing for myself.
…in giving me [presents/presents-that-are-not-presents ;) ].
…in teaching me new things about life I never really knew about before.
…in giving me virtual and real hugs.
You’re my support system. Thanks for that.
Now I’m gonna go do stuff on my own in the big scary world, but take you with me in my heart.

Amen! And..that is why I hate it when people say that “net friends” are not the same as “real friends”.
Um yes, they are…duh.

Poppy, consider yourself invited if you ever stop by Indiana!

Good thing you have such a big heart cause I like to stretch out and it might annoy the others, especially on days when I sweat a lot, if you had a little teeny shrively heart.
Yay for big hearts and unconditional friendship!

I think I’m more of an admirer than a friend. Although I would love to be your friend.

I hope you consider me a friend. I am a good listener and will always be around for you.
unconditional friendship rocks.

Probably not included in this… Maybe I should make an effort to be.

Unconditional is just that pretty Poppy. You have buoyed me more than you’ll ever know. So thank you. Smooch

Thanks, everybody.
I am having an off day, so I needed that.

Me: always late.
You: awesome.

That is what we are here for! ((hugs))!

blows my mind that someone as spectacular and kind and intelligent and wicked funny as you is unaccustomed to unconditional friendship. because you certainly deserve it.
