I'm around my closest friends a LOT. We've been close all throughout high school, and we do almost everything together. You would think that we would get sick of each other, or bored of talking to the same people - but that just doesn't happen.
This week, for example, I've spent many many hours together with my friend Sydney. We watched a volleyball game and then a soccer game and then a movie together on Tuesday then hung out all day Wednesday went to the football game, and watched another movie together (others were always with us, she just happens to be the only constant at all these events). That night she slept over at my house, and we lied there and talked until almost 5:00 in the morning. How can we spend SO much time together, yet still have so much to talk about all the time? We've been like this for years, and I feel confident saying we've never run out of things to talk about. Is it possible to talk forever with the same person? Can two people muse over the workings of the world without the conversation ever getting boring or predicable?
The answer to your questions is: Yes. People live their lives and gain new knowledge, insight, and experiences every day to shape their perspective. Even talking about the same things over and over again will be different each time. My friend and I may run out of things to talk about after a long consecutive period hanging out together, but each time we chat about virtually the same things with new effect. Communication with friends is awesome!!!
