I have not written any worthwhile entries recently. Maybe it is because I am not feeling too introspective these days. Or maybe I am trying to run away from my inner thoughts.
Sometimes, I miss being in a relationship. Keep in mind that is different from missing the real person. What I miss is the special treatment…the feeling of being exclusive…the ultimate high you get from all those kilig moments. However, I realized that I would rather be somebody's best friends than somebody's one and only princess. Or baby. Or sang. Or whatever.
Of course, being a ‘best friend’ of someone you actually like more that a friend is an entirely a different matter. It irritates me when a girl and a guy who are obviously infatuated with each other and describes their relationship as ‘just friends’ or we are just best friends. A best friend is not someone you flirt shamelessly with. A best friend is someone who's seen you at your ugliest moments. Someone you have built an entire library of inside jokes with…Someone who will genuinely want to console you when you are down…Someone who will take care of you when you are wasted…Someone who will not worry the moment you fail to reply or call… Someone you enjoy doing things with. It is easy to find these qualities in one's girl friends, but in just one romantic prospect? Tricky.
It is easier to find unconditional love with the people we do not even plan to do so with. The strange thing is, it is a lot more difficult with the ones we spend so much effort on trying just to be compatible.
