Love finds its place in most unexpected and bizarre friendships!!..
....I always used to think that both are different, but it is that for a recent event, I understood that both can be synonymous..
Trying to avoid cliches like "love is friendship"...I have never really realized that we were living in one!
Today I was going through some of my earlier entries (a time when blogging was known as "writing in the diary"), when I came across an event which was both silly and emotional at that point of time.
It was the year 2005. We have just been promoted to next level after passing the board exams, which meant new admissions and new faces from different schools.
It was during this time I got a huge crush on someone mainly because of his voice...He was a new addition to our school's family, from other part of India, who recently moved here..our mutual admiration and knowledge about music made us like each other quite quickly!!...and then one fine day he said that he liked me a little more than "just friends" (u know how school proposals were like!)....I had always been an introvert when such awkward feelings were involved! But made sure that he knew that I was reciprocating the same!
.......now coming to the other side of the coin...I have always had very few friends and fewer when it comes to best friend...
...one of whom did not like this "other school guy" suddenly taking most of my time and walking me home (in his defense, his house happened to be in a similar area as mine) and then specifically discussing me, with a different group, in a mutual tuition, where I did not go!
...so when the "best friend threshold" crossed, one day my friend cornered me and told me all the things, both decent and indecent, that were discussed in the tuition.
I was not specifically upset because he spoke ill of me behind my back but the fact that my friend pointed out that my choice was wrong hurt me more!
That day after returning home I wrote a letter to "the guy" saying that I do not want to continue "seeing" him (as one may say)...and the weird part was that I did not say the reason to be because he said mean things about me, but because my best friend did not like him!!
As suspected, I hurt his ego pretty bad! So after I gave him the letter, he returned the favor by writing me one which was obviously filled with things that I did wrong by breaking it with him..most of them I do not recollect but the last line will always be in my mind which said,
......"If you continue your life choices depending upon what your best friend thinks, there will come a time when you won't have a best friend in the first place."..
Today I came across those lines yet again and realized how badly I must had hurt him!
Time pays back....in this life itself...sooner or later...in its own way!!
