there are some people in your life whom you want to get close to, but for some reason or another, you can't. no matter how hard you've tried, you just can't seem to make the person open up to you. it's the person's own prerogative to protect his/her privacy, of course, but you can't help but to feel sad that even close friends have some sort of barriers between them. maybe it's the level of trust you have in the other party? like how you would tell your secret to certain friends, but not others?
it takes two parties to build up a strong and lasting relationship. it's not all about taking, but also giving. you can't keep asking unconditioned love and concern from your close ones if you don't even give them the opportunity to do so. at least, that's my take on it.
it's also saddening how two friends cannot develop friendship beyond aquaintance-level because some things come between them. these are things which can't be resolved easily, unlike occasional quarrels or harmless squabbles. by some strange twist of fate, the two become more like archrivals.
hmmmm. i used to be quite bothered by such matters, but now i've learnt to take things as they are and not think about what it should have been. no point in doing so, is there?
