I love making a lot of male friends, and these have become part of me. I just like vibing with guys, probably because they know how to relate very well, or I just like guys.
Guys have a way of resolving problems, and of course, women do not really know how to do it.
Guys have a special way of relating, and I love the way they do it.
Most of the friends I have in my circle are men, and some of my female friends used to feel I didn't like them.

I remember that when I was still in school, I had a female friend who was so close to me. She was like a sister to me.
We share a lot of things, like our values. We were just good together. Sometimes people always call us sisters; they used to think we were from the same family, but no, we were not; we were just best friends.

Blessing and I loved each other to the point that we could not do anything without each other.
We studied the same course, stayed in the same hostel, and went to the same church too.
Each time we had vacation, we would choose whose house we wanted to spend the holiday in. Some of the time, I would always choose her house because I love traveling a lot.
We were just too close to each other.

So one day, I met Joshua. Joshua is a very smart and intelligent person. He is so cool, and I like him for the fact that he sings so well.
When I was just sitting outside the hostel, he came to get something from his coursemate, so he stood for a long time without seeing who he came for.
"Hello"
He said to me
"I'm looking for someone, and I cannot see her."
He said, telling me to go look for his coursemate. He told me her room number and went inside the hostel to call his coursemate.
So from that day on, we became friends, and as time went on, we became very close.

The next day, Blessing and I were just walking to class, and then we saw Joshua. I introduced Joshua to Blessing and did the same to Joshua, so we became three friends.
We were cool; even though Joshua was not in our department, we were still talking.
Since Joshua met me first, we were very close, so he was more open to me than to Blessing.
There were times Blessing would be jealous because Joshua was just close to me alone. I did not really take that into consideration because I thought she did not really mean it.
Joshua would see us on the way and will talk to me with a low voice even In front of Blessing, he would whisper something funny into my ears, maybe about someone dressing sense, and Blessing would get offended, and she would think we were talking about her.
I would try to explain to her that we don't talk about her.
On the other hand, I would tell Joshua to always carry her along too, but he said that he does not just always feel like being free with her.

As we were close to finishing our program at the university, we had an issue.
Blessing started liking Joshua, and she could not make it clear to him, or maybe she did not want to say it.
So one day, Blessing was not around, so Joshua and I went for a sit-out. We enjoyed ourselves, ate, drank, and took pictures.
As we came back from the sitout, Joshua offered to see me off until my hostel gate. So as we were gisting, Blessing came out of the hostel and saw us laughing together.
She just greeted us like something was happening.
I told Joshua to excuse me. I went to her and asked her what happened.
She said that I was a betrayer. I was so confused.
"But you told me you guys were just friends."
I was still wondering where that was coming from, so I asked her.
"What do you mean?"
She said that when she met Joshua, she thought that they would end up together because of the way he used to stare at her.

Immediately, I called Joshua and asked him if he liked blessings. He said that he was just friendly with her because I introduced her to him and that there was nothing more. I told Blessing what Joshua said, and she was pissed with us, and till now Blessing and I don't communicate anymore.
