Should you maintain similar standards to your friends as you give to men? Obviously you are more empathetic towards your friends but how long can you wait for someone to put effort in you? How many times do I have to remind about myself to get a reply (for simply asking them how are they doing?)? Is it worth pursuing long friendships because they used to be really pure and good? I’m in my early 20s and I don’t know at all what’s good and what’s bad
