Hello anita,

Thank you for replying.

A good boy-friend for me is the one who loves me, respects me, likes for who I am and is good at communicating. I really like to feel connected to people! 🙂

My mother…well I think she is just worried about my future. I have told her from time to time that I try my best at academics and I will probably be able to secure my future with a stable job. She just wanted me to excel more in academics I guess. When I was younger I got really good grades. She expected more from me. But battling depression really leaves me exhausted. In the recent years I realized my priorities need to be changed. Grades are not everything. She is probably having trouble coping with this fact. She thinks I am lacking in my grades because I am pursuing a relationship.

She has her own issues. She met and married dad at a really young age. Probably when she was 20. My dad didn’t have a stable job back then. So they had to face a lot of difficulties. My mom just doesn’t want that for me. Mom doesn’t really communicate that much with me. I can’t make her understand of my point of view at all.

The qualities of a good best friend…..I don’t know. I never had one. Don’t get me wrong I have many friends but not a best friend.
