Well I talked to Max on Friday and we both agree that we're drifting apart from each other. We didn't much futher than that, but I made the decision that he's really not worth presuing as a friend any more. I mean I'll still hang out with him in classes and stuff, but I feel that I have grow as a person, while he's still stuck in 10th grade. We talked about him saying things in front of new people and he said that he was sorry about that and that he didn't know that it bother me. But then again today, he did the exact same thing.
I think thought about why he was acting weird around new people and I have come to the decision that it was his way of keeping the friendship alive. Like if he destroyed any chances or me making new friends, that I would only have him to hang out with.
Now I admit that I am pretty picky when it comes to friends and that's why I really have a couple of friends in real life and even on this board. But I rather be with a couple of people that I respect and care about, rather than jump from friend to friend each day. There's nothing wrong with having a lot of friends, it's just that I tend to focus my efforts on people that I think are worth presuing as friends.
I wish that sometime that I could just be like everyone else. I wish that I could just have a group of friends that understand everything about me. I guess this feeling is normal for everyone in there life, but it seems like every 5 years or so I out grow my current friends and then have to go out and find some new ones. Eventually a new group of friends pop up, but these transition period suck.

that said, i think everyone only has a few real good friends in real life....and there's people i've known for a long time and its such that we can just fall back in line and have good times like we used to......
i'm sure you must have some people like that...if not, then soon!!
just keep in mind that everything is a series of ups and downs and since you're on a down right now, an up should be right around the corner! followed by a down, but such is life.
i think those social groups are only on tv. i have a few really close work friends, a few close school friends, and a few close high school friends but they generally never mix.
as for now....i recommend ice cream!
