I feel like most friendships have a power dynamic of who’s trying to get validation from who. I feel like I’m often the one trying to get validation from others in my closest friendships. However I have some friendships where it’s kinda the other way round and I am not as secure in those friendships because I feel like anyone who’s tryna get validation off me doesn’t really know me because if they did they wouldn’t feel the need for my validation. If I don’t feel the need for their validation then it either means I am so so secure in the friendship and know that nothing can ever happen to it and nothing I can say can make them judge me, OR it can mean that I just find them annoying and don’t find their validation worth getting because they’re not a very interesting or exciting person.
 I think I’m just really good, almost too good, at reading the room. I read the room so well that I read between the lines. I have to read the room otherwise I won’t know how to act, not that I know how to act anyway. But I feel like people who can’t read the room find it easier to change the atmosphere of the room, because they don’t have a preconceived notion of what the vibe already is so they can just do whatever and not worry about it.
 I think it was because rory said she has no friends.

 Sometimes there is these just weird unlikely friendships between two people who are so different you never would have thought them to be friends. But they’re actually really close and they have basically no mutual friends but they just hang out with each other every now and then or they have calls with each other. And then everyone else just kind of accepts it, even though they don’t really understand it. And no one can imagine what they could possibly have to talk about when they hang out. These friend ships always seem to be the most calm and drama free. And because both people are so different they are very much equals in the friendship and there is no competition or malice or anything ever. These types of friendships can sometimes not see each other for months, to the point where everyone sort of forgets that they’re friends, but then when they see each other again it’s never awkward and they just go off and have a chat with each other. And everyone else nods knowingly and remembers about this weird little friendship that they don’t really understand. A modern phenomenon of types.
