Friend Request: Accept or Reject?
Whether it’s age, personality, smarts, or dare we say it, appearance, the decision to accept a friend into our lives is almost like picking a date, but on a more frequent basis. We’re also known to collect one too many friends (re: Facebook). Who do you really want to have in your life? And who can you share your crazy lovable quirks that you can’t with someone else, beyond the casual remarks (heyyy, wat up!!, HAPPY B-DAY!!)? These are one of several questions to ponder as we explore who you choose to share your deepest and silliest stories.
To kick off the new year at DowneTime, you’ll be casting a search for friends – and maybe making a few new friends too!
