A rant.
Just because people are different from you and have grown into different interests than you, does not per se mean that you've grown apart as friends. It just means you're different from the person you were when you met however many years ago. Does not mean you can't still be friends just because you have different interests. First of all, the whole point of friendship is to stick by each other's side. Second of all, how sad a life to surround oneself with people who do only the same things as you and are just like you.

Am I directing this rant at anyone or anything in particular? Not really.
