My Musings: Just...a thought

Just...a thought

I have again been attacked by the writer's block and was thinking that I wouldn't be able to write for some time;But such is life,things do happen when u least expect them to.

Had a terrible start to the day where I stuck my foot in the bathroom door and the damn thing still hurts.Somehow got dressed for work to realize that i wasn't fitting into my favorite shirt all of a sudden;Grumpy and grouchy left for work only to be stuck in a hour long traffic jam.
Finally on reaching office,when i was struggling hard to gain my sensibilities,i had a major fight with one of my closest friends.And for the first time in 4 years,we both raised our voices and yelled and shouted at each other.
I feel terrible ever since.I shouldn't have said all the bad things I did...but at the same time I feel that the same holds true for him.
The trouble with friends of opposite sex is that the perspectives of fights change for the two people.While the men show their anger by keeping quiet,we women tend to be more expressive and loud.
So,while my talking too much pissed him off,his keeping quiet did the job for me.
I am so miffed,and irritated yet I don't know how to correct this situation.There are times when u know its not your fault,and u know that u stand correct,but tend to change your judgment for others' happiness..
But this time I don't wish to do it.How many times can we go on losing ourselves and our thoughts to keep others happy?Shouldn't the same thing hold true for others too?
Why can't friends stop being judgmental and take you the way you are?Why do some people expect you to change for them when ideally a true friend should accept you the way u are and still love you?Why do people expect you to be sensitive to their emotions while they don't do the same to you?Why do people dislike it when you decide to stand up to your thoughts against them,when they were the ones who taught you to do so?
So many questions in my mind and none that I have answer to..
I just know that I don't want to lose a good friend to an ego clash;that's the worst death a friendship can suffer.:(

Meanwhile on this one, I wud say situations like these do appear and thoughts like these pass ur mind whenever u hav a fight like this...Ego hurts n leads to disaster...

But sometimes, leaving the decision to destiny n believing that a friend will come back if he is true friend is also fine...

But the only catch is, one should not let this coldwar go on for a long time...n thats wat experience says :)

So Guys, PATCH UP...asap!!!

PS: M sure ur frend is ur blog regular...n he knws wat u r going thru... :); 7 July 2009 at 03:02

Varun said...: I hate that period when I fight with my friends. In my case, I am usually the one who sorts the issue every single time even when I know I was not wrong. It all depends on how much that person you fought with matters to you. I know it holds good for the other person too but then when you know that he would probably never take the initiative it is up to you to do the patch work. Easiest way would be to send an sms or email saying that you guys would not discuss about the matter you fought about ever again and move on...I personally can't talk and sort matters out. Writing is so much easier :D; 7 July 2009 at 03:55
Varun said...: And take care of that leg. Lighting never strikes the same place twice but doors and tables does :); 7 July 2009 at 03:56

Adisha said...: That's too bad. Yes, sometimes, it's important to stand your ground but then there are ways to let your friend know that you both can agree to disagree as well. Fights can be horrid, but sometimes a reconciliation don't really mean that you say sorry or go back on ur words...

A friendship ends only when You let go of it. No effort to keep a friendship together will ever go unrewarded ...; 7 July 2009 at 06:52

Aniket Thakkar said...: I had many such fights with my best friend. We always ended up not talking to each other for couple of days till she or I said "Kab tak baat nahi karni hai? Kabhi nahi karni to abhi bata de..." And then we laughed it off. :D

She is still my best pal since Class 10th.

Hope you guys find end up the same. Am sure you'll be laughing it off in a couple of days.

If he really is a good friend don't let your friendship suffer over ego. Waiting for too long tarnishes things and then they are never normal again.

So take Rufus to a walk. Listen to you fav. song. Wear a shirt you easily fit in. And then when you are in a totally good mood go and talk to him.

About writers block. Tell me about it. I can't put an "r" next to a "w" when I try to wirte. Its that bad.; 7 July 2009 at 11:53

Anonymous said...: I'm not being judgemental or anything, neither do i know what went between you two but just want to say that many a time we make our friends compromise on certain issues we don't think about. Our friends do those things to make us happy without letting us know about them or if it made them unhappy. So, please don't think like this ...

"How many times can we go on losing ourselves and our thoughts to keep others happy?Shouldn't the same thing hold true for others too?"

it holds true for others as well and they do lose themselves to keep us happy..just that we don't realise it...
