Friendships don’t last. Do they?

After all these years, I think I’ve seen almost everything that should or should not happen. People grow up, and most of the time, they grow apart. If you still manage to maintain fairly okay relationship with a friend of 7 years, give yourself a pat on the back. If you survive longer than that, please arrange for a dinner tomorrow night and celebrate it.

Despite the tension that was created from every little thing that had happened, I’ve always been a firm believer in our friendships. After all, We were the core gang. We were the first people to say hi in the new environment, etc etc.

It saddens me to see we are where we are today. Grown apart. awkward hi’s and bye’s, occasional exchange of words..

I just came to know what my “friend” is really upto. I was spectacularly dismayed. I was holding back whatever feelings i had at that moment to think. Anger? Sad? Disappointed? to think that we’ve been through so much together, to think that we used to be so close. What that friend said or did was really low. I hate to be stabbed at the back that way. We’re no longer in high school and I wished that friend of mine behaved like an adult and had the guts to accept his faults instead of badmouthing me in front of “unwanted people”.
And that, my friend, is unforgivable now.
For everything that you’ve done for me in the past, I thank you. But we are over now.

No doubt I shed a few tears because after all, I just lost a friend..
