Keeping a good relationship

I sometimes got stressed because of keeping relationship with other people. It means having a relationship with people is inevitable in our lives, and it is always difficult and complicated. Because of that, I sometimes think that I don’t want to have a relationship with anybody. I want to live alone.

I didn’t try too much to keep up with my social connections by calling my friends periodically. So I’m pretty surprised when I saw people who contact their friends every week to say hello or to ask how everything is going on these days. I take care of my friends, but do not show my intimacy by calling many times. I sometimes even forgot to call my friends due to school works. Some people can be disappointed that but most of my friends understand if I didn’t contact for a long time. My friend and I can meet again without any bad feelings even if we haven’t contacted for a while. However, these days I feel that I need to try to take care of my friends to keep good relationship. I justified myself that this is what I am doing to keep up with social connections. However, I realized that some people left me. I think I need more efforts to keep up a real relationship with others.
