Do you use the word "forever"?
I can't use that word anymore. Not even in a myspace comment. How can anybody promise to be friends forever? Often, we have no control over what might happen or what other people might do.

3. ...
I have not spoken to one of my best friends since she was here in August. To say that she was difficult for her entire visit, would be an understatement. My feelings are hurt, I did everything in my power to avoid hurting her, but I suffered for it.

4. I generally avoid it...
Its too absolute and unbounded. Nothing is "forever" not even the universe.
