Dating is difficult when people are too young or
immature to realize the meaning of being a human being that is trying to be a friend.

A Friend Doesn’t Demand

A friend does not demand,
is not easily provoked.
A friend makes me laugh at myself
even when my life is no joke.
A friend accepts me for what I am,
and doesn’t try to change me.
A friend doesn’t bite off my ear
to try to rearrange me.
But sometimes, as people will,
I need a good kick in the pants.
A friend knows when to give one
by the effort in his glance.
