I assume the question mark is an unworded question about the "theories" I referred to. Am I right? If so, then I can dismantle with a short analysis... I'm pretty sure it isn't anything that has gone unnoticed or mentioned, but since I'm somewhat of an Outlier here (both by design and consequence) I have to employ my own methods and timing to put things together. I'm pretty sure it's one of my weaknesses here; I generally couldn't be arsed about it. However, in a drought of interesting content lately, it piques my over-analytical mind's curiosity. Whatever, I don't wanna tl;dr anything, even though I'm sure you've long been inured to that accusation yourself (TC).

What is a friend to you?Someone who I know very well. Someone who knows me very well. Someone with whom I have common values and perspectives on things. Someone who has qualities that I respect and admire and flaws that I can accept and handle. Someone who appreciates my good parts and considers they are worth dealing with my ugly ones. Someone with whom I have bonded through various experiences tightly enough to trust them with my life if case be. Someone to whom I can reach out for help knowing they won't hold back, someone who I can open up to without having an uneasy feeling telling me it's a mistake. Someone who trusts me and is assured of the same support back. Someone who genuinely wants my well-being and happiness, and I the same for them. Someone I enjoy spending time with, knowing the feelings are mutual.
Those are the first things that come to mind, but it's not like anyone can encompass all the aspects of friendship.
Mee: Buddy... I hope you don't take my random spergs in pubs as anything more than me randomly goofing around? My main field of expertise is pm's.

Forgiveness is letting go of the pain a reflective memory brings and replacing it with compassion and understanding that allows you to no longer take it personal. Then you can move forward and not have to look back. You won't have to remember whatever it was, because it doesn't matter anymore. And when you continue to distance yourself from people who will only do further harm, it won't be out of fear or need to punish, but because they have become like a mist passing over your stream of consciousness with a barely noticeable sensation.
