“Don’t be dismayed by goodbyes. A farewell is necessary before you can meet again. And meeting again, after moments or lifetimes, is certain for those who are friends.“
Richard Bach
So, are we friends now? Because I really wish we were.
I still recall the quote he sent me 2 days back, it’s about how to tell if you have already moved on with the one you lost. I don’t quite agree with it. One of the signs says that, “you have moved on if you don’t care about his life anymore.” What the hell was that? How could you not care? I’m not one of those pathetic pathological liars.
Tell you what, my bestfriend, Ghi, has finally bagged a wonderful guy! I’ve been rooting for this guy for so long (to win her) and you have no idea how happy I was when I learned that they’re “almost” together. Uhuh. Eventhough I’ve already broadcast to our friends that they’re officially a couple, they’re still in the pending list of lovers about to get an approval from the love department. Who the hell is the commitment phobe here? Somehow I understand the guy’s reasons. I know why most guys are not ready to let out the L word yet. Because that word, is the…BOMB! haha. Nah, seriously, it’s not enough to say it. It would never be enough. There’s always a follow up. There’s always something expected of you to do next - one of which is to start a relationship. Admitting that you feel something, has a lot of risks. This is one of it. What if certainty is obscured? What if you’re not sure if you’re ready to handle a relationship at this point? you know, things like this happen. And who knows? there are scary realizations that might come up…like, oh no. I don’t even want to begin to think about it! As of now, I want my bestfriend to be at her happiest and enjoy that feeling.
Sometimes it goes away, sometimes it stays forever. Whether you get to keep it or not, it is important that you smile when you remember. When it’s real happiness, you wouldn’t feel a pang of deep regret. Not even once.

@romski: yeah, i guess we just have to take the risk. i think you should give it a go if you think he would somehow “complete” you.
@ tristan: ok lang yan.let’s drown in the same dilemma. teka, di ko pala dilemma yan.haha
