hi nat, what is friendship to you?
friendship is when obviously firstly you like and enjoy the company of someone and this feeling is mutual. but that's just like, basic friendship, for me, to me, for our friendship to maintain, (not in terms of what i look for in a friendship) there must be emotional value, honesty and trust,
the kind of trust where, we don't have to talk all the time and i know we will still be close, though that shouldn't be taken as the liberty to not stay in touch/make efforts to keep up with each others' lives and expect me to still care, also, i feel i can read people/my friends pretty well & i can always tell when something is off, if there are things someone is not telling me. but i don't demand full honesty in the sense that, if it's not given, (and over time things do not change) i note it & move away
honesty, whereby we can both be honest about how we feel, if one of us changes then it's something that can be discussed, neutrally, with the understanding that it is done out of care, for eg. if someone seems to be slipping out of the person he usually is, becoming someone i no longer respect, then i can bring it up bc i love him. honesty & trust are intricately linked, i can trust that you will be honest with me one day, that extreme privacy/closing yourself is a personal trait, but lack of honesty also indicates trust issues
also, i'm very particular about my friends bc i give a lot of myself in terms of time/heart/what i would sacrifice for a person, so if it seems as though a person does not prioritize me as much as i do her/him, i move away, that also includes 'friend-sluts' people who seem to readily allow people into their circle of close friends, seems slutty, hate that, i don't allow people in easily & i don't want to be treated that way
finally feel like basic beliefs are the most important, for me that means Christianity. not going to not be friends with someone simply bc we have different religions, but i find my closest friends all share these same foundational values: eve, sarah, eli, claire kara etc. we look at the world in the same way. if things in our lives go wrong, we feel there is objective basis in how we ground our words of advice to each other, bc we believe in a form of truth as opposed to (I guess) rampant relativism. when i was in London @anothercaroline & i had really solid conversation, felt that beyond common interests, we both share the same beliefs & a desire of commitment to God
thanks for this question, have been re-considering friendships over the last few days, felt good to write it all out -

what do ya think of people who choose to pursue unconventional degrees like lit or art history despite the fact that they could have gotten into a "more respectable" course like law?
i feel like your opinion is embedded in your question and it contains an obvious element of bias towards the quote you 'more respectable' courses
i respect anyone who chooses to follow their dreams and not bending to social will. more so for these courses which may not be deemed a 'safe' choice, re job opportunities and a stable income. and while perhaps many people choose law and medicine because of the social respect surrounding the course/future career there are also those who have a genuine passion for what they are studying
i respect passion and individualism -
i'm in love with my best friend. is that a bad thing? i feel like it's the worst situation ever.
well it really depends doesn't it? for instance if he/she already has someone, or if he/she has made it clear before that you two could never work. i'd like to think that people can be rational enough to talk about these things like adults—but i fear this isn't quite possible in real life. the last thing you should do though is try to pull some stunt. that's a really bad idea. i can't and won't tell you how to act on your conscience but i will say that at some point you have to make a decision on which you desire more, friendship or a possible love. only you would know if the latter is even a possibility.
