makes me wonder
posted on Apr 13 at 11:10 pm | 3 comments
An interesting thought came to mind today.
I was with a friend, and as we were saying our goodbyes for the day, we walk towards her boyfriend who is coming towards us on the same block. Immediately, the vibe changes as she goes "ok, byeeee" and runs towards him and they dissapear off sight. And as I walked the same exact direction wondering where the hell they went, I began to wonder why people do that.

I mean, usually when I have a boyfriend, I like him to meet my friends, so I don't "hide" him from anyone.
I mean I've seen the guy before! I worked with him for the whole summer last year. I don't think he is important enough that she has to completely do a 360 on whoever she's with and isolate herself along with him.
I just don't get it. I don't even know if what I'm even trying to say makes sense, but I just don't understand the actions.

If you are THAT jelous, that you think one of your good friends will steal your boyfriend, let me just tell you that he is not that amazing, nor would I spend my time eyeing him for myself (Unless I don't know you)...which is happening now, but the person doesn't know it yet.

Point is: get your priorities straight.

maybe its not about you or her boyfriend. maybe its about her. maybe when she is with her boyfriend she is a different person that she is not willing to share with you and the outside world. when your with the person that you love they are your best friend. they get to see the whole you, not the part that you let the world see. when you are with the person that you love you are free, vulnerable, and stronger all at the same time. all of my past girlfriends know me better than anyone, my family included. there are parts of me that only they have seen.

Different people go about relationships... differently. I have some friends who we'd hang with until they got together with someone and *boom*, it's like they fall off the Earth. They just get so absorbed in their relationship that all else ceases to exist or something.

The wife and I roll a little differently. We've actually had people comment on how we're a very easy couple to hang with in that we don't shell ourselves off... this includes single people. We're a unit, but we're individuals... the relationship is a part of us, but doesn't define who we are as people.

I wouldn't take it personally... I just think your friend is so into the guy that she doesn't really see the rest of the world around her.
