Honey, many times you don't NEED a truckload of friends! There's nothing wrong with making friends, but you'll find out that everybody that you THINK is your friend really isn't. Not only that, sometimes relationships change with time. You may drift apart, and nothing could be wrong within the relationship. But things and circumstances change, and so do people.
I have probably about 4 really good female friends that I can share anything with, and a couple of good male friends that I talk with on a pretty regular basis; but each one of these friendships is on a different level. Even within my circle of friends, I feel that I can share 1 thing with one of them, but probably wouldn't share the same thing with another.
So yes, you can make other friends, but don't cast aside your treasured friend that you now have. You may find that later that she may be the only one that is a TRUE BLUE friend.
