Samantha works in the same office complex and just stopped by to pay her rent.
"If you'd ever stop in to see me, I wouldn't have to come down here and bother you at work!" We chatted for about 45 minutes about everything under the sun.
It was like a ton of bricks landed on my head. Oh. She really wants to hang out with me. Most of the time, I think people are just trying to be nice.
I always think that everyone else has plenty of friends. They're busy. Doing cool stuff.
This time, I'm going to make a good effort. Not let fear take over and let it go.
I just told her to call me and let me know which afternoon this week is good for us to spend some time together. She could use a little help with her business and offered me some free services in exchange. But honestly, I think she just wants to be friends.
I'll let you know how it goes. You can never have too many friends. And I really like her.

No you can never have too many friends.I hope that you are having a grand day!
This sounds very "happy". :)
I hope you end up hanging out. Sounds like it would be fun.
Friends are the best gift you can
give yourself.
What is this "friend" concept of which you speak?
And speaking of friends, since you're my friend I'll give you a heads up that on my blog today there's a link to a blogger chick that's really hot. And she's in her underwear.
I think you'll like her.
Friends come and go unfortunately, so continually making new ones ensures you are not the one sitting on the outside looking in.
You can never have too many good people in your life!
Sounds like it will be a good time, hope it works out.

Good for you! I'm a lot like that. I never believe that people REALLY want to be my friend. I always think they are just being nice. That's my baggage, I'm sure, but it is still the first thing I think when people say, "Hey let's get together!".
Friends are good to have around.
"free services", does that involve anybody's pinky?
Good friends are hard to come by so go for it!
Sounds like the beginning of a good friendship. Enjoy!
Enjoy!
I do the same thing. "They're busy, have friends and family" etc. But sometimes, people really do want to be friends. ;-)
I don't want to be a bother so I send my friend cards just to let her know I am thinking of her and hoping she is OK. Yep it is friend not friends. I pretty much just had the one. Now we don't work together any longer and even though we live in the same town the distance is mailable.
I love to make new friends. I am glad you realized you have a new friend.
Well that's sweet, what a nice surprise for you to enjoy.
It seems that we are the same in that regard. That's a nice post.
My best to you.
I know these feelings all too well! Something tells me you are ready to do this!
Keeping my fingers crossed for you! It's funny, but I'm often amazed when someone wants to hang out with me. Tickles me silly. I know...kinda pathetic, but that's how I am!
Take care!

Sweetie...so do I have to visit you at your offfice just to hang out with you?
Cause I will. I'll take a flight out of LAX to Tennessee, yah know. :D
Um...and I think you rock babe.
Ciao babe.
Good for you both.
Fear is a fickle bastard isn't it?
I was set to say something like, "you can do it," and then I rad Candy's fear is a fickle bastard and laughed my ass off and forgot..
but hmm..,
just do it..
you'll be glad--:)
so true.. never turn your back on a potential friend..
Friends do have a way of expanding our view! :)
when you least expect it, things happen and bloom right before your eyes. it never fails. so now i say, be still, and god will bring to you what you deserve.

Friends are great. You have a lot of them.
I'm the same way...why would they want to be friends with me? they're way too...too for me. Gotta get over that, because like you said, one can never have too many friends!
Hope you're having a great Wednesday!
It is nice that you are generous with your time. I find you can have too many friends and they all need too much of my time, that's why I prefer blogging friends!
I'm sure it will go well.. breathe.. :)
You definitely can never have too many friends.
