    Friendships is important to me. I have experience with between best friend and good friend. Best friend not mean must be follow or keep secret can cause broke proimse. I would prefer few good friend who can trust each together which is less drama.

    FYI: My grammar is nightmare. LOL. Alright.. Two lessons about the relationship, especially prospective lover. Looking for Mr.Ready ( Or Miss.Ready ) not Mr/Miss. Right. He must be ready for you. And you should be ready for him. Forget traditional unspoken rule , a guy must ask a girl for date. If you really want him ? Go for it ! Ask him. Don’t wait for him. If he says , “No.” That mean he is not ready for you. Be ready. Secondly, Attractive is the most important form in the relationship. Please do not date guy who don’t have same feeling about you. In my experience I went out with hearing girl on first date. I had crush on her. She asked me out ( I’m not sure. I think it’s my guy friend who pushed up on me ). I thought she had same kind of emotion like I did. So I took high expectation on first date. We went to ice cream shop and had chat for hours ( til midnight ). On sunday, I learned that my date w/ her is purposeless. That being sound so “friends out”. I feel like being used. But I learned something. I do not recommend purposeless date. If you don’t intend to take him ( or her ) seriously please don’t date him at all. I feel so foolish and stupid. And I wish I don’t date her first place. I only went out w/ two hearing girls ( non-serious dates. My second date with different hearing gal is better than first one ).

    ( Not finish ! ) Funny. Why should I search millions after man who don’t have money ? Exactly ! That why I think purposeless date is stupid ! Yes I know some guys from my church love purposeless dates. I guess hearing boys have NO brain ! ( Excuse for tone ) What about deaf girls ? Especially 20′s something years old deaf gals ? Almost impossible. My standard is too high for these 20′s something adults. I am not party fan. I don’t smoke or drink. And of course I don’t have opportunity to do something pleasure on bed ( Obvious ! ). Yes. That is frustrated. It’s me. That how I live. I study in school. I build and run business almsot 24/7. I pay real taxes. So I can’t afford spend hours on fake dates and nightclubs.. Scoffs… Be yourself… I’m interested to get in the relationship with hearing girls, but also have hard time to know if they’re really into me or like me because I fluent in sign language ? That tough… Brb….

    True friendship is important. I learned about bestfriends and beloved ones. Its interesting to learn about their own way. I realized that they are changed my life and taught me to understand what is right or wrong and something new. If not, my life might be meaningless. I know life is tough, but I understand how life is tho. it is good to stay with good person that bring peace, happiness and joy. Its not good to see someone who is really lonely cuz this person might be depress or have times. Also, mabye this person don’t have friends. I think it’ll make me feel bad. I hope people encourage lonely people to join them as friends if they show caring. That will be better. If people were change, I will try to accept their situations. But im glad God and Jesus Christ never give up on us no matter what. I see that’s who they are. They are our friends as always. I hope you will deserve to find good friends who treat you nicely, well, etc. But just be careful to watch out on who they are till you know them well before you will regret. If you think its rare to find good friends, don’t worry you still have us who you care till you meet new people who have good heart in a surprise way. Probably it ll work out for you.

    Its is better to have a few real friends than a ton of acquaintances. It is also wise to be picky about the people you let into your heart. Trust your gut instinct. If your stomach says, “NO! Warning! This one is a weirdo!” trust what your tummy says. I used to have friends that were more trouble than they were worth. To be compassionate is one thing but to allow it to ruin your peace is another. Being able to pray with friends is important and I have found that my closest relationships have Christ in common.

    Thanks everyone for sharing your advice. I appreciate it. Let me share my advice too coz I want to be fair to you since you shared your advice =). These are a few things I’ve learned from my experiences. I didn’t want to make them too long, so I’ve listed some important lessons to share with you.

    Relationships

    - When you are single, you are free and being yourself. But when you have a boyfriend or girlfriend, it’s important to know that you CAN still be free and be yourself no matter what. Don’t give up on being free and being yourself just for someone else. Let that person get to know you well coz that’s who you are and your own life. You can get to know that person well too. It’s not good to control someone else’s life when that person is your boyfriend or girlfriend. Instead, it’s good to share life, have fun, and give each other strength with love, trust, respect, and honest.

    - If you agree, you don’t have to say, “I love you” everyday coz maybe it will be too much for someone else. Who knows? Just sometimes is totally OK, but it’d be very nice to show love in person, not in words.

    - Also, if you agree, you don’t have to hang out or chat online with your boyfriend or girlfriend everyday coz in my opinion, it may be tiring or boring. It’s good to chat online or see each other sometimes coz it may be more exciting. Give each other space. Your family and friends need you to be there for them, but your boyfriend or girlfriend needs you to be there for them too. Don’t focus on the only one person, just be fair to all.

    - If your boyfriend or girlfriend doesn’t love you anymore, yes it hurts, but you MUST let that person go coz it’s their heart that can’t love you. It’s not worth it to love someone who doesn’t love you.

    Friendships

    - Don’t tell a friend ANYTHING too personal coz in the end, that person might betray you.

    - Learn to stand up for yourself coz you just never know if anyone else will stand up for you or not.

    - Don’t be friends with someone if you feel that person is not right for you. Just be honest to yourself and follow your heart what’s right for you.

    Mistakes

    - Don’t ever talk to strangers or accept them either online or in person if you, your family, and friends never met that stranger before. It’s for your safety. Protect yourself.

    I hope this helps! =)
