How do you feel after reading the above line? Presumably weird. Everyone has had their "once upon a time best friend". These are the ones you don’t even wish to come across or the ones you barely talk to. Ones who are unavoidable or the ones you pretend to be best friends with but deep down both of you know that the bond once shred, is just a memory in our hearts. You know you don't even like being around their shadow, but you still pretend to. Their presence is enough to make your heart groan . Yes, these were your ‘only’ people yet when you see them you feel knots in your stomach. When you go down to the memory lane, you realise how close you were before...At the same time you can't believe there was a time your heart longed to meet them like no other. There was a time when you made innumerable plans just to get a glimpse of their face and now you don’t even know when these feelings changed. Of course it would have taken a very long time. But you, you didn't notice these minor changes in their behaviour back then, you wore your heart on your sleeves. You kept on letting go even if those words, those actions made your heart ache every second of the day. Because of course they are (were) your best friends.
Also to-be-honest having a once-upon a time best friend right beside you, is better than being around strangers. The pain is no better than what you felt when your ‘forever’ person left you stranded. There’s a void deep into the core left because the ones who were ‘your’ people, can’t even have a decent small talk. You may find your special someone again after a break up but losing a best friend is like losing a part of your soul, it goes away just like quick sand and you can’t do anything about it...
