Differences.

Isn't it funny how we meet so many people in our life with so many differences? I find it very mind boggling to know someone who seems so nice and awesome and you become great friends with and can work so well with, but on absolutely every topic or thought about life, love, friends or opinions we are completely different? 


I have a friend, kind of more of an acquaintance I guess, who I thought we were on the same wavelength, but come to figure out that we are polar opposites. How does that happen? Are we really not that compatible? Not really able to be friends? After all isn't it usually the things you do alike that make a friendship strong?


I am not saying that this person is rude, or mean or arrogant, I am just interested in trying to figure out how someone can hate everything you have to say or believe, but yet be nice and be a friend?


Have we become so used to this as humans that we just pretend to like each other? Do we just try to be different for the sake of standing out in a crowd? What is it that really drives us to disagree so much with another person? Is this really a side of hate, jealousy or anger or is it solely just a difference of opinion? 


I really don't get it. Do we really not agree all the time or is it just that right now they choose to vocalize it more than before? Should I really be hurt or should I let bygones be bygones and not really care? Areyou just not a friend? 


I think a friend should have the right to disagree about what ever they like but why do they think it is ok to tell you your opinion is wrong, or awe full or just downright laugh at what you say or do? 


I think right now, I am going to choose to let them have their differences and let them roll off my shoulders. I don't think I shall really care at all that they think the things I like are "cheep" or "young" or "different". Right now I will see the fact that we disagree and have differences and if you choose to push them in the middle of a could be relationship, that is your loss. I will be here, waiting and hoping you see what it is you do, and wait to see if we really are friends or not?
