I think I have sort of created some sort of irreversible obsession over my best friend. I'ts not that I cant live with out her. It just that I refuse to do the simplest thing without her consent or at least knowledge. In some sort of twisted way, I cant think without her.... Shes sort of that one thing that completes me in almost all aspects of my life. I'ts scares me day by day because i feel that such a good thing is always lost... Im paranoid about losing one of the only things that makes my life, worthwhile.... Praying for her everynight doesnt seem enough and even when I'm sleeping next to her...I sleep with the deep penetrating thought that She wont be there when i wake up.... My question to you is this.. Is this a friendship or some sort of ill obsession?????
Ashtobomo answered Sunday April 17 2005, 6:27 pm: No way! No obsession! That's why she's your best friend... because you need her. Maybe even you see her as more than a best friend more like a sister... that's how I see my best friend. Best friends are someone that you can depend on no matter what and someone you can always feel comfertable with. You wanting to know what your best friend thinks about things is what most girls do anyway... I know I do at least. You and her are obviously close and that's a great thing! As for worrying about wheather or not she'll be there when you wake up.. stop worrying. I bet she feels the exact same way as you do about her. And if she does, then she'll never leave you.. Never!
Hope I was of some assistance,

You aren't weird at all. That's what the best in best friend means. Your favorite person in the world. [ Reara07's advice column | Ask Reara07 A Question ]
karenR answered Sunday April 17 2005, 3:25 pm: Sounds like you want her approval. You look up to her and think highly of her opinions. Most people who become friends don't just up and desert you. Unless she is bothered by it you probably aren't going overboard. :) [ karenR's advice column | Ask karenR A Question ]

Like yea it's great to pray for her and such but not be wondering if she'll be alive when you wake up next to her. But i think you guys are REALLY REALLY REALLY tight which is awesome i wish i had a friendnship like that. Well i hope i answered your question!
luv,

ShYbl0nD3 answered Sunday April 17 2005, 2:33 am: It possible that you are obsessed but i'd look at it as you two are really great friends, almost like sisters who cant be split appart.
The bond is so strong that if your split that you feel theres a whole in your life.
So yea shes a life time friend. I would hang on to her because not everyone can find that one person that just clicks and just is so similar. [ ShYbl0nD3's advice column | Ask ShYbl0nD3 A Question ]
suzbird answered Sunday April 17 2005, 1:27 am: Ok, it might be obsession, or it might be something else. You feel this bond to her, you don't want to lose her... you view her as the only thing in life that keeps you grounded. Right? You might want to try talking about it... not seriously.. don't get into obsessive talking.. but talk to her about your relationship.. if she realises how you feel... maybe she can help.
