Still do you want to be his/her girlfriend/boyfriend?

Being in and out of a relationship I realised how confusing and complex it can be with an opposite sex. A small change in the relationship status can bring about tremendous results and consiquenses. I want to share some of my insights regarding it with a help of a small story.

Like in every story there was a boy and there was a girl. They considered each as their best friends. They used to do many things like study, eat and enjoy together. They enjoyed each others company very much. When one was busy the other would not disturb. There were also times they could not speak or meet each other consistently but later when they did meet, the environment between was still the same. They would also eye other people, sometime flirt with them and it did not matter. While the relationship was going so well, a small idea came into boy's mind which is later discussed with his best friend. The boy's idea was that why don't we be girlfriend and boyfriend than just being friends? Afterall they were doing many things together and enjoyed each others company! Girl took some time and finally agreed.

The excitement of entering into a new phase of a relationship masked away those cruel truths which gradually came to light. Though the rules of how a boyfriend and girlfriend should be is never written or told, its been followed by the generation. Some rules are like they should meet daily and go out, there must not be a day when they did not speak to each other, they must not show interest in any other people other than their boyfriend or girlfriend etc. These two free birds had a hard time complying to these rules and making their relationship work though these rules were insisted by them on themselves. Now, even petty things like sending a good morning text message mattered. Girl needed surprises from her boy for every occasion she can possibly name, she needed him to answer all her silly dilemmas, she needed him to assist her by leaving his job in the midsts and so on. Boy was very strict about her speaking to other guys, he needed her to wear clothes approved by him, he needed some time alone in a day and many more. The boy's original thought of they becoming girlfriend and boyfriend was to have more closure with his girl. Girl agreed to it because she felt it would be good for her as she knows him well. But it never went as they both thought which is not a surprise for us who have seen far more worse cases. Later what happened is quite common I guess. They broke after their relationship reached to that unrepairable state where the both them swore they never even see each other's face if they can help it.

So don't you think being as just friends was better in their case?

What u said is very true Karthik, but you need to give some time and some space for every relationship...Being friends is a different thing and being in love with someone can be entirely different...However liked your post :)

I was expecting that the ending of your story turned out to be good, but what happened was the opposite. There are many love stories with a happy ending coz partners started as a friend. I believe that being friends before turning into lovers is a good foundation of a relationship. I think some relationship does not work well becuase of misunderstandings and lack of trust.

After reading almost every poem on that page, I want to share with you that in my opinion the most interesting is: "Seasonal Reckoning". Of course, it does not mean that other poems are worse, but I like "Seasonal Reckoning" the most.

I am completely agree with this post. It is 100% true. First a boy and a girl be friend and then fall in love or in relationship. But after some times they feel bored or very personally. Finally, they break up and be free with each other.
