Having a large group of friends in a small town - as I do - means that often someone is falling in or out of love, at times within the group. The dynamics change constantly.
But in one particular occasion, that heart-warming feeling gave way to heart-ache when, someone I cared for more than I realised, fell in love with someone other than me. The perceived rejection stirred up hidden emotions and made me question how solid a friendship can be when tainted with romantic undertones.
The price one has to pay to have friends of the opposite sex!

This is always a complicated feeling isn't it? friendship with romantic undertones. Experienced this quite a few times myself.
ReplyDeleteYeah Keith, a very high price to pay :(
DeleteSo true. Very difficult when couples who are friends split up.
ReplyDeleteit's horrible Dicky, especially when one has to take sides
