"You're My Best Friend"

[reachingHigher]

Wow! This just in!

H called me just now from work and we actually had meaningful communication, lol! He had been on FB looking at what my latest comments and likes were, and came across a news article that I had commented on, with loneliness as the subject.

He said he was reading the article and became "anxious" and couldn't finish it.

He also shared a video online that explored the thought of electronic communication making people feel more connected than they are.

So we talked about these things, and the issue of using the smartphone while you are in convo with other and things along those lines.

I know H has those feelings of loneliness and dissatisfaction with his life. But he doesn't often talk about them. Here he admits that his electronic usage has hindered not helped him. He said he is much funnier online than in person.

And he talked about someone he met recently at work that was older than him, smart, funny, wealthy, well-read and traveled. And you could tell H really admired the person.

I'm excited that this could be another step in his and my journey. It's obvious it's something he wants to work and "discover" who he really is inside. Not just an online persona.
