My hobbies are music, movies, cars, trains and going bowling with friends, I like to talk to people about various stuff and what goes on in life, fortunately I don't drink and go to parties.

The only hobbies that me and Rolando have is 80s music and us going to the movies together although we don't have the same taste of movies.

It seems to me that Roland is casual friend quality, but not best friend quality if that's alll you have in common plus the other issues.

I could be friend with both but probably wouldn't hang out with either. I like middle of the road people, I seem to have more in common with just down to earth types.

I wouldn't want to be friends with any of the three of you.

Is this a trick question???

I guess I'd have to say Megan. I personally would have more in common with Megan, but that's my problem.

Actually, I would probably have more in common with Roland the retarded bum.

Mopac, you appear to have a big head, not Megan. Your friends are who they are and you should accept them for it. If you can't accept who they are then don't be friends with them. However, don't ponder if you deserve a better friend. At this point, do yourself and Rolando a favor and cut ties with him. Right now it sounds like the only reason you'd continue being friends with him is because you can't find a better friend. That is not a fair nor an honest relationship.

While me and Rolando may not have many similar interests I do feel that we do have alot in common and we can relate to each other very well and he is really compassionate and takes alot of pride in his friendships, I do feel that Rolando is such a great friend for me.

I've later started thinking things through and I realized that I was being such an arrogant jerk for favoring Megan over Rolando cause of what she has, I do have other friends who I have met through my younger brother and I am thankful for having them as my friends, overall I think Rolando is a much better friend for me than Megan ever was and Rolando is really compassionate and filled with pride towards his friends and I don't think anybody can be as great of a friend for me like Rolando is.

I also later realized that I shouldn't be acting that way towards Rolando and me being such a big headed jerk for wanting to be friends with Megan instead of Rolando and I feel that what I'm doing for Rolando in return is treating him like crap cause of his learning disability, I think me and Rolando are meant to be friends and Rolando is the kind of person who would do anything for his friends, I'm now in a better state of mind than I was when I've posted the message, one quality what I really like in Rolando is that he can make something out of nothing.
