We all remember how valiantly Julia Roberts fought to stop
her best friend from marrying because she realised she is in love with him or
is it so that she has always been. If it was a Hindi flick, the guy would have
easily left his bride to be just a second before uttering, “I do” but it was
not. Julia is left behind to find the second perfect for herself. Sigh.
I know a lot of people believe in the notion, “a boy and a
girl can never be best friends, sparks will definitely fly’. But I don’t. They
can be and they forge bonds which are beyond the sibling or the lover
phenomenon. But are these bonds life long?
There is no definite answer to this question but they
definitely are much tenderer and become vulnerable with the presence of the
Miss Right who suddenly takes up all the attention in a man’s life which was
previously enjoyed by our now quietly sidelined best friend. This obviously doesn’t go down too well with
her. She begins to feel cynical and lonely. Her days will start and end with
the fickle hope of his call and after two days he does call, but only to ask
where should he take her for date? The girl would want to scream ‘Hell’ but
ends up uttering several options. He picks up one and keeps the phone down.
End of the world.
She may or may not cry. She may or may not sleep. She may or
may not eat. But she will definitely fall in love.
But is she really in love? Not really. She is just too
lonely to feel any other emotion. And she would not feel anything else until
she manages to get the new toy out of his life.
Relax girl. Just because you always completed his
assignments and got him his favourite jersey, he will be enslaved to serve you.
It will hurt in the beginning and you too will succumb to the gloom but you
will end up fine. Don’t take refuge watching dumb Hindi movies in the hope that
your might turn into one. It will not. Instead go guy hunting.
And the boys even though you have got a sexy new thing to
flaunt the whole day, you will need the old pillow to hug and fall asleep.

I am a boy and in my case the complete opposite happened. The girl whom I loved considered me as her best friend. And she used to share her affair with another guy ,she loved. One day I just left her alone coz I couldnt pretend to be her best friend. It hurt her and me equaly bad. But I guess it was good for both of us? What do you say?
That is sad but i still believe you should have given yourself sometime to call it off. because it simply wasnt her fault. isnt it?
Great Going!
I know it wasnt her fault, but I had to move on right bhawna? I couldnt wait for her till eternity. She could share everything with me as my best friend but never thought of me as her love. That made me feel like I was being used as an emotional support only. It feels really bad. You do every possible thing to spend some valuable time with her and all she thinks is about her boyfriend.So I decided to end this. Now we are just formal friends.
A girl and a guy can never be friends!! NEVER!! it may take minutes days or years..but they will always be more than friends..
Lemme rephrase it...a guy and a girl who are 'close friends' or 'best friends' are ALWAYS more than friends.
Either from the guy's side or the girl's side or both. But NEVER its 'just friendship'.
