Great Expectations!

I  always used to admire the way friends care for each other.As you enter college, you see myriad new faces and somehow only very few of them get closer. I came across groups which existed because of regionalism(which were completely fake), politics etc.I always wanted to be part of a group whether it is fake or not(which I was not able to succeed).I tried to do whatever it takes to be part of that group(whether I liked it not).What I did was fake.Whatever I talked was fake.I have become a complete faker to impress others!It took me a long time to realize that.I'm not saying I don't want to be friends with anyone.According to Gandhi, friends react on each other.It is very important to give enough personal space to your friend or any relation, so that he/she won't feel the need to fake.If we keep faking what will be our identity.I mean, others should like the way you are, whatever your character may be.If I am faking before a friend, how can he be called a friend?.This is the reason why I try to stay away from doing things in groups.One can say you can be yourself even if you are in a group,but it is really difficult(try it out).One of my friends says one has to fake to get whatever one wants and thats what I do to impress girls,I do get the intended result, John Nash kind of stuff won't work here.I disagree with him(with certain exceptions.I know it is hard to meet their Great Expectations!:P).
