business friend

Have you ever liked someone who was bad for you? You know very well they are not heading in the direction you want, and have no interest in steering you that way but you still like them....and they like you too. I mean, they are a good peeps, great conversation, but it’s one of those people you will never go anywhere with. Even as a friend they are questionable, because even if they are great, they do engage in some sought of questionable behavior by your standards. You start to wonder if you are being judgmental or if you should just accept people as they are and love them from a distance.

They have different ideas about how life works and maybe that is why you like them so much. Different is good, provides stimulating conversation and is quite the eye-opener. You don’t want to give that up but at the same time you don’t want to be associated too closely. Are you building yourself up or holding yourself back by having some sought of relationship with this person? Is there something as friend on a business basis even if there is no business?

Just wondering.
