For the first 18 years of my life, I was a one-woman woman, best friend-wise.
When it came time to leave for college, Jazmine and I finally had to part ways; she went off to listen to indie rock and eat roasted seaweed in upstate New York, and I made my way to central Ohio to pursue my passion for drinking warm beer in cornfields. Jazmine and I Facebook-messaged daily and called each other several times a week, but in between our bouts of communication, something strange started to happen – I made friends.
I don’t like to think of my friendship with Jazmine as a marriage of convenience – after all, 15 years later, I would still rather talk to her than just about anyone else – but it can’t be denied that we needed each other badly in high school, and that need wasn’t always beneficial to our bond.
and making good-natured fun of you. My heart soared when Jazmine and Eliza bonded over dog ownership, and I exulted in driving home silently from the beach as Natalie and Maya animatedly discussed the finer points of. Maybe it’s the latent child of divorce in me, but these days, I can honestly say that I’m happiest when the people I love are finding common ground with one another.
