Are You Simple Or Real?

A simple friend has never seen you cry.
A real friend has shoulders soggy from your tears.

A simple friend doesn't know your parents first names.
A real friend has their phone numbers in her address book.

A simple friend hates it when you call after she has gone to bed.
A real friend asks you why it took you so long to call.

A simple friend seeks to talk with you about your problems.
A real friend seeks to help you with your problems.

A simple friend wonders about your romantic history.
A real friend could blackmail you with it.

A simple friend, when visiting, acts like a guest.
A real friend opens the refrigerator and helps herself.

A simple friend thinks the friendship is over when you have an argument.
A real friend knows that it's not a friendship until after you've had fight.

A simple friend will say later.
A real friend will make the time for you now.

A simple friend expects you to always be there for them.
A real friend expects to always be there for you!

I just feel like posting this. No hidden message really, i think. Even if there is, i wouldnt notice it myself.
Probably just this, "i was more of a Real Friend to most of my Simple Friends."
