Search Results: getting her a present as a friend

In and out of a couple of relationships, I always found that communication and keeping in contact with each other was one of the hardest things to do. There was always an effort to stop a relationship from drifting apart. So many reasons, ranging from lack of shared interests, a too boring life, or not being friends enough to randomly chat up anywhere anytime.

I do have a female friend though who is special. I used to attempt to date her, found her not as open to dating compared to other girls, so I quietly gave up. However, she is that kind of special person that I just chat very naturally to. We go through phases of getting really close, then drifting apart cos of laziness/busy stuffs, but after a couple of weeks we drift naturally back together again. All quite effortlessly compared to how tiring it was maintaining a relationship with other girls.

So I was thinking, is it perhaps just better that you should be with the person you can chat most naturally to? The romantic attraction might not be present, or one-sided. Maybe they're not the mature reliable person you can count on either. But they are your best conversational partner for the past few years already, so perhaps, just perhaps, the best person to spend your life with? When life gets boring, mundane and tough, you know you two can still strike up a conversation no matter what.

True or false? What do you think?
