The end of a relationship

I am not talking about Xiao Hong and me, of course.
But two close (really close) frds of mine just ended the friendship (maybe it’s just a temp thingy. But this is how it is for now)
Everytime one party asked about the other, I will be thinking “My god! Why has everything comes to this?”
We were once so bloody closed.

Sharing intimate topics, deep dark secrets and even a cup of tea.
I guess it all comes down to you knowing how to maintain a friendship.
Like all other relationship, it does need maintain.
Friends are there for you, of course.
But it’s not their duty to be there for you.

I am not an expert in maintaining a friendship.
I had lost a fair share of friends too (sadly…..)
But I try…

- Never take them for for granted.
- Never think it’s ok to hurt their feeling (even though u have been friends for years)
- Dun said you will called them back but never did. (It’s ok to call back late even a few days late but call lah)
- If something major/serious happen, drop a simple sms/call/email to ask about him/her.
- Try to help… in any way possible and within my limit, of course.
- Try to stay in touch… (A sms dun take that long to write)

I think it's everything like a relationship. Just maybe the level of intimacy is different or of a different group... But dun worry I wouldn't take u guys for granted. ^^
