I think that relationships are frail yet precious things.
We all seek to be together with the person we love.
However, most of the time we lose sight of what is important, and become
control freaks. We try to monopolise the time we spend with our love ones, only believing that we should really be the only ones most important in their lives.
We're really not.
Before we even get married to the other person we aren't really each other's yet.
Nothing is set in stone, or even confirmed yet. Hell, even when you get married, things may still go awry. But marrying is a condition, a promise.
The problem is, we really try too hard. We forget that this other person, is someone who has lived their own life their own way all up to the time they met you, fell in love with you, and got together with you. Their life did not revolve around you and never will; their life is their own. We have to learn to respect them and remember that everyone need's their own space once in awhile. We have to be careful of where we tread, because that person is really not a part of you.
I think relationships right now for us, are premature at best. Its like an experience for us. We crush on someone, we try to woo them, we get them, we get together, we break up. Or we could just fail at the wooing stage. The point is that most of such relationships are very short or unlikely to last till marriage. Its not that I'm being a pessimistic person, but its true.
Now, there are those of us who are faithful, blinded creatures lost in the ways of love. Some of us eventually give up, some continue to persevere, and some just can't let go.
For people of our age, I think the best thing would be to remain as best friends.
What we really want is to be beside that person when the he/she needs us the most.
I know for me, all I want is to be talked to like a close friend.
Its different.
While still staying at the stage of friendship without moving on to holding hands or kissing, we are trying to keep the relationship between the two pure. All we really ever needed attention, care and concern from the one we love. And that's what we should ever get. We should just stay at the sidelines and let them live their own life their own way. Live your own life your own way too.
Bottom line is, getting into a relationship right now isn't exactly important for us.
I'm not going to say that we should focus on studies and all that bullshit. It's been so overused as an excuse I don't even want to hear it anymore.
We can save on the unnecessary hurt and trouble by keeping the right distance from each other.
You'll be happy, she'll be happy.
And it doesn't mean you 2 would stop talking so...
Its an appropriate decision.
