Is it normal to keep thinking about friends all day long?

Specially when I make a new good friend I keep thinking on the person during the day, sometimes all day long, mainly when I'm alone. Is it normal to think about friends this much?

P.S.: I'm a guy, if it's important.

    i'm sorta like that. well, i don't keep thinking about them all day, but anything my friends say to me i remember it. and when i see certain things i think of certain people. i think it's pretty normal.

      hey keyno, take a look at my response to you and 009 on this issue of friendship/romance and let me know what you think. :-)

  • I don't know... I used to think so, but a little while ago, I got some of the closest friends of my life, an seeing as i'm normally a loner by nature, I learnt a lot of lessons about what is and isn't normal about friendships. I found that for most people, they can't bear seeing the same person or people more than once or twise a week on a regular basis. I think that kind of links to this. It's fine to think of them all the time, just be aware that they probably don't think of you the same way....
    Then again, having said that, I can't proove it. I often wonder if thats actually true though...? They seem to have one set of rules for me and another for them. Maybe it's cause i'm gay or that i'm a loner by nature, either way, it more or less cancels all of the advise I just gave you =/
    Anyway, I certainly wish you more luck with your friends than I had with mine!

      Thanks for your comment and don't worry, it helped. I'm a loner and kind of gay too, so maybe that's why we are like this.

      I would like to know if more "normal" people (don't judge me, you know whatI mean) feel the same way.

        I feel like i understand both keyno and you, 009. i am also a loner and if you HAD to categorize me "curious".

        it probably deals with our personality type. we are the kind of people that like intimate, close friendships. however, "normal" people would see it as you dating or in a relationship, but we are just passionate people that like intimacy, but don't necessarily regard it as "dating", at all.

        if i can guess, maybe keyno and 009 have not had the appropriate intimacy with your father, so you seek this male bonding in other males today? this is my situation. and it is impossible to fulfill and heart breaking.
