A best friend and I have had a few problems lately, particularly because I am somewhat insecure with the friendship. Now generally, I don't care what people think of me because I know who God has called me to be. However, I DO cherish what my best friends think about certain things, because, well... they're my best friends.
I talked to him about our friendship yesterday and asked: "How do I know that you really do care?" He gave me a very legit answer; at the end of the conversation, though, he challenged me with the question, "Does it really matter?" He also proposed the idea that what people say about you should not matter AT ALL, whether it be good or bad. For some reason, I have a problem with that because I feel like his reasoning is wrong.
He also went on saying that since what people say really doesn't matter, he could live without friends as a Christian. I am not sure how this is possible, but help would be great. Bible verses would be great as well. Thanks!
