I Love You, As A Friend, And More..

It's always said that a “Thin Line” separates Love and Friendship. A famous proverb so is said and carried forward from a long time and passed on by generations to generations. Me, you and may around you and me, have been into situations or phases in life where we have fallen in love, made friends, and in the process of doing so, have heard that the other person whom we think of as our best friend, loves us, and the person whom we love and want in our lives, turns out to be having no feelings at all more than just a friend. I know you all can relate and agree to this statement because this has happened at certain point of time, if not yet, it will soon.

So what is the big deal with the statement "We are just friends" and "I love you but as a friend" and "I have never looked at you in that sense, have always looked upon you as a friend" and similar common statements that, by the way, guys have the most of experience with! Girls on the other hand enjoy saying these statements on the face, covering up the harshness that may be caused by these statements, with a coy voice and a untoward expression on there face! It has happened that we have been friends with many people, however there can be that one person amongst them, who holds a very special place in our hearts, yet we can't really decide whether it's simply friendship or something more than that. It creates an unusual discomfort and restlessness in us and we get entangled in the dilemma of solving it, in the right way.

Emotions, especially when dealt in relationships can have catastrophic effects on us. We tend to make a lot of mistakes and end up losing a good relation, which had maintained from a long time. Is it worth having so much upon our heads, just because the complexity of relationships can be so aggravated that it blinds our soul and we suddenly feel like we are held by a devil, who suddenly takes over us? It's no body's fault if you love someone but the other person doesn't love you but takes you only as a friend, a good friend, for that fact. It's not your fault that when you have a friend from a long time, and you are very good friend of his/her, and you become shy to admit that you are falling for that person. 

It's the severe intensity of adrenaline rush in our brains that, we at the same point, have to accept that we are not going to get the person we love, and we don't want to lose a best friend in the process of doing so. I am sure we all have faced this kind of situation at least once. I, believe it's all about connections, and to an extent, a conspiracy by god involved in making these kind of things happen, at the right time, with the right person. If I have to go by another famous saying, everything happens for a reason. So, what’s the moral of the story here? Well nothing to be honest. We do not control emotions of others and hence we cannot really make a person fall in love by force, neither can make that person our best friend by force. 

Sheer luck and blessing will get us the right person, with the right emotion for us. If you have a very good friend from a very long time, and although you like that person, but apparently you see and know for "sure" that, this person is going to be your best friend forever and not more than that, than my suggestion, treasure that feeling and lock it. Similarly if you love someone and apparently you know there is a fare chance of getting love back form that someone, who by the way, is also, a good friend of yours, my suggestion is, Don't wait! Reach out and give it a chance! You will either be surprised for life or for the moment.

Relationships, Love, Friendships are as simple as we make it!
