I’m a very kind hearted person and I always make sure to be kind to everyone around me. Also, I’m an open book which means that I can tell you what’s up with me as long as I feel free with you. That’s how I met a lady sometime ago. She told me that she loved my vibe and unknowingly, we became very good friends and it got to a stage of we being very close. Her name is Sarah.
Sarah and I became very close that we share things together, we eat together and even planned to get married the same time. We both went to the same high school but life happened to the both of us. I’m trying to say that what we planned didn’t happen the way we wanted it. One of our plans was to attend the same university but life happened to us as usual. Things didn’t go well so we splited since the chose university didn’t admit the both of us and that was how we separated. We didn’t get into the same university but things did not change between us. We care so much about ourselves. She comes to visit me at my school and I go to hers too. Some people call us twins because we do our things together even though we are not always together.
As a student, its a normal thing for you to meet new friends and it depends on if you still want to be close to your old friends. Relationship then came into our friendship and as we know,the closeness will have to be transferred to your love partner. But it wasn’t like that from my side. I made sure my relationship didn’t affect out friendship.
I had to make sure I tell her my plans and how I am coping with life but I noticed something.
I realized that she totally changed but I didn’t really take it seriously because I thought it was school stress and all. I’m also a student and I know how stressful higher institution can be.
The only mistake I made is that I should have stopped telling her much about me. But it was not really my fault, I really loved my friend and I would do anything to get her back.
After a long time, I started realizing that she doesn’t really tell me much about her but would want to know everything about me. But yet, I tell her my plans and still ask for advise and suggestions. I once told her that I want to go into clothing business, I told her about the link and the people that introduced me to the business. Not quite long, I started seeing her post and likes. But instead of me complaining,I was happy for her but my mind kept telling me to question her. But her explanation was that you know we can actually go into the business together since I am into it already and besides, my boyfriend really loves to see me doing something handful. So I had to let it go because our friendship meant a lot to me.
After then, she started being close to me again and I didnt even think of what she had done to me. We still kept our friendship. We became more closer till we finished school and it was time to get a job. This was when she showed her true color.
*One thing I know is that whenever we are desperate in this life, we can do anything just to be successful. Some people don’t mind loosing a long- time friendship to be successful.
After waiting for over a year without a job, I decided to go into a business (like a mini mart) which I told my friend, she was happy about it but as usual,she told her boyfriend about it and the next thing I discovered after a month was that she got a store, stocked it up with goods and she didn’t even tell me this time. I felt heartbroken and when she called me, her words was like this:
Babe, its not what you think, you know my boyfriend what’s the best for me and i wouldn’t want you to feel bad about it, It was not like I stole your idea but all you need is support me and be happy for me . I felt so bad and I couldn’t help it again. I had to end the friendship immediately. It’s not like In don’t want her to be successful but it felt like she was in a competition with me. It was so awkward and made me feel that the friendship is not a healthy one because apparently, she will always want to do whatever I lay my hands on and it may not be good for me.
