As said by someone “People change, things change, time changes, priorities change, but expectations always remain the same” .

Nothing is permanent in life-not even the company of your loved ones. We need to understand the fact that every person we meet is there to accompany us in a particular phase of life. It is very rare that friends we make in childhood have same goals, same thoughts like us. So it is obvious that they will be on different path from us. *So as the time changes paths change because goals change. Now since they are on a different path with different goals so it is obvious that they will meet new people- “People with common path and common goal”. So now priorities change. But one thing that didn’t changed over the time was our expectation. Expectations always remain the same. Despite of this great change- “Change in time” we still expect that person to behave same as he used to behave years ago. Instead of changing our expectations we change our perception that person has changed. But they have not.
So, they have not forgotten you but their current priorities regarding their life goal might have changed. They are now more in touch with new people on same journey than you. Try to remain in touch of your friends but remember one thing “Good friends always occupy a special place in heart even if you are out of touch for years.”

Happy Reading :)

best friends forever...thanks sir for ur nice writing...

Glad you liked it.

People do change. That being said, we still need to be there for everyone without any expectations. Expectations can only lead to dissapointment.

Absolutely true ! Be there for everyone, but never do the mistake and forget yourself first ! I mean always help others but never do that at the expense of hurting yourself !

I think Good Friend is a good life changer..
He stand with u on every tough time in life..
Nice post..Good.👍

The point here is when your old friend .. after you and him/her go into a different direction ( due to different school , job, travel, marriage , etc.) he no longer asks frequently about you !! And when you both meet , one of you wil be blaming the other for that .. coz each of you has got his new priorities and new life circles and ...... friends !

Good point raises..
Yup u say right..
Good.👍

Thanks friend 🙏🏼

childhood friendship is not a friendship, it becomes brotherhood. Ralph waldo say's

it is one of th blessings of old friends that you can afford to be stupid with them

Yeah .. you’re right !
However, what meant here is all the very intimate relationships and circles whose partners naturally change due to new life goals

Well written.
Yes, priorities changes. And obviously when you grow, you meet new persons, some interesting than childhood friends.

But, one thing is sure that childhood friends are forever.

Glad you liked it. 😍

i love my best friends forever.
