I have these five of friends, we are very closed with each other ever since we were from primary school. We infact have been in the same classes almost every year up to secondary school. After that we went into different paths but we still keep in touch until now. The three of them now are studying in the same university but different course. Two of my friends are studying elsewhere. We constantly go out together, dinner together and almost every week without fail.
Our friendship holds strong until today but yet within the circle of friends there's always ups and downs. We even share our thoughts and knowledge. If one person is sick, the other person will give a helping hand. Where one person is sad, the other person will ease down that person. Most of the time things are fine between us. Never get into fight as far as I am concerned. But within its reach and grasp, there's some event that causes it fasten on the subject matter.
Until this week, I just noticed something rather awkward is happening between us. I'm not in the state of denial but one of my friends likes another friend within this circle. It happened few months ago and I thought it was a joke but rather it turns out to be otherwise. X likes Y but Y doesn't want to prejudice Y's friendship with X just because X likes Y. X has been given some 'hints' to Y but rather Y doesn't want to go into it. Lets just be friends sort of way.
What troubles me is what if they get together and when some event occurs they break up. Wouldn't it be troublesome? Wouldn't it will prejudice our friendship and their relationship? Wouldn't it cause difficulty? I'm not saying that they don't need to be together but how far will it stand? I'm okay as long as they are okay and supportive with one another, then that will be fine to me. I'm against nothing.
There's always some pros and cons when dating your best friend. Some says it is the best decision ever made. It makes your friendship stronger. It eased the awkwardness and made us laugh harder together. Some said the friendship can never be completely the same again after you break up, well only after that then you will know.
As for my sister, 21 years old she has been in a relationship for almost 4 years until she broke up early this July. She rarely communicates with him ever since and the worst part of it, he asked to give back his so called grandfather-father-son ring from her. As for my younger sister, 17 years old she just ended her 3 years relationship last week.
I've never been in a relationship with my best friend and I do not know what is the outcome of it. To me, I dare not to take the risk and silly to think of it to be in a relationship with my best friend. Well that's my opinion and I have nothing against you people. After all we are just teenagers, there's a looonggggg way to go.
What about long distance relationship? hurmmm
