I find myself really having an emotional connection with people if we're good friends. The only ones that I have stick around are the ones where there isn't any of that "awkwardness"... The one's that you could tell something completely absurd to, and they won't be judgmental towards you, and vice versa. It's hard to explain, but there are those people I meet, and I just know there's nothing there but someone I associate with. And then there are those people who I know I can seriously bond with from the second I meet them.
