I’ve never been close with anyone who lived even remotely close to me. I’ve rarely ever even known the names of the people who live beside my house. Once upon a time my siblings used to play with some kids from the neighborhood but I was never involved. I always had other interests.
The schools I’ve attended have always been at least twenty minutes from my house. One of my biggest fears when I was younger was running into a teacher or a peer at the grocery store or while out with family. When I was younger, family and friends were something I made an effort to keep as separate as possible. Today, that has completely changed, right now some friends are over socializing with my family.
I wish I knew my neighbors. I’ve always envied people who just crossed the street and found themselves at their best friend's house. A few months ago I made my first friend who resides in the same city as me. We see each other nearly everyday now. Sometimes I wonder if I’d lived closer to my friends we’d have a better relationship, but I’ve come to the conclusion that it’s all about effort you make.
