Friendship and feelings
21:00 Edit This 0 Comments »
Picture this , you have that friend of the opposite sex that you are close to .Your friendship has survived for some years and has gone through alot of trials and tribulations . I bet every strong friendship goes through that and its the trials that makes the bond you have stronger .In all that feelings start arising and you can feel it , what should you do ?
Should you tell you friend how you really feel about them?
Well this question has got two answers that confuse most of us .Lets start with yes ! Yes tell them how you feel !Life is about taking risks and trying isnt it ? Do you want to keep all those feelings to yourself and let them consume you?Its better to let the feelings out so that those awkward moments should stop messing with your thoughts .What ever your friend says should not make you question yourself about the deeper meaning .Letting your feelings known to your friend will help you know whether you can be comfortable around them as a friend or as a lover .In every force there is always an equal and opposite force acting against it so you should expect either a positive responce and a negative responce that can affect your friendship.
So this comes to my second answer , heard of the saying that :Let sleeping dogs lie ?That saying is trying to tell us that some issues are better left untackled , some feelings are meant to be kept to ourselves to avoid affecting your friendship in a negative way. What if you tell him how you feel and he gives you a negative responce ?That would hurt wouldn't it ? That would also make you have a gap in your friendship and things would be different especially if you had strong feelings for him and had a lot of hopes.
Sometimes its better to just remain friends because relationships end sometimes and that can affect your friendship . Well all I can say is that love and friendship are unpredictable .You can keep feelings to yourself and then later live a life of regret as to why you never said it , or you can regret ever telling your friend how you felt about them . In all this , risks are there and whether you plan to partake in that risk taking process just remember that no matter what you do, do what you shall never regret or shall never affect that strong wonderful friendship that you have .
