Friends no more

Have you ever thought of the relationship between you and any of your good friends, and maybe a best friend? Have you ever struggled in pursuing one another’s interest? Two people share common interests and become friends. It would be rare to see opposite attractions for friendship.

There are a lot of mind readings, misunderstanding, and miscommunication between people. It happens to any kind of relationship and not just friendship alone. You sometime remember the time you and your friend first met. Sometimes, you wonder how many years that you have known your friend. Friendship is just like any other kind of relationships. You fight and disagree on things, but then you make up and compromise with one another. There’s always time that one gets on the other one’s nerve, and there’s also time that one can inevitably hurt the other one.

Some friends tend to grow closer, but some tend to create distance in between. When two friends become distant from one another, each one will feel somehow disappointed. You have known this person for few years, and suddenly you lose that person, I really don’t think it’s like nothing ever happened. You can always either work things out or not. It is either you or your friend makes the first move to retie the connection and rebuild the friendship again. Now you may ask what if I make the move, yet s/he’s not answering my text messages, phone calls, emails whatsoever? Remember, your friend’s reaction has nothing to do with you. You have done your part; the rest is up to your friend. It is your choice to make the first move, and it’s your friend’s choice to react to that move. Nothing is personal. It is nice sometime to give each other’s time and space to think. If the friendship is meant to be over, you really cannot help it. After all, friendship is a type of relationship, and when it comes to a relationship, it involves two people’s work.
