Whoever came up with this quote got it down accurately. Your best friend becoming someone who you actually love. It makes complete sense. They know you already, you trust them with your life, they have seen you at your best and worst. Nothing can get better than that. Although, what happens when the hot fire man with his extinguisher comes along? The answer is, an ended friendship. I guess its a risk to take, right?

On the contrary, I do believe some friendships are just meant to be friendships. For example, when watching the film "P.S. I love you" is about her husband dying, and moving on from him becomes this great journey...Blahblahblah. Anyway, she meets this very blunt man that she becomes good friends with. He grows strong feelings for her, she doesn't really know about how she feels for him, and than they eventually kiss - nothing happens. No spark, No ka-boom, No nothing. Just pure absolute awkwardness. In view of this, I started to question 'Should friendships with obvious chemistry be considered just friends? ' In other words, its clear when theres no connection in a friendship. Not to mention, there is friendships that begin and continuously have an attraction, a sex appeal, and a strong bond that you never experienced before with anyone else. A bond that can possibly be successful or as I mentioned, a complete failure. As a result, you can lose that person forever. Despite of that, this constant fear of losing a friend can turn into a brick wall-- not letting the friendship go further can result your friend moving on. Basically, this is another terrifying risk. Which one to take is the decision to make.

The funny thing about this, my brother once gave me a piece of advice. "Any best friend that is the opposite sex, eventually has feelings for you regardless" I still highly disagree with this statement because my friend and I are still great friends and there is no attraction nor had any attraction before. We even cringe at the thought of it. So, in ways I am lucky I can keep a mutual friendship with someone of the opposite sex without the confusion. However, I have experienced my own personal scenario that grants my brothers advice some creditability. So I ask the same question once again, "Should friendships with obvious chemistry be considered just friends?" In my humble opinion, I do not believe its just friends. No matter what relationship they are in, they are still in their heart. No matter what they say, if there is a connection it is crossing over the "just friend" line. My best advice I can give to others is test it out. You can't live your whole life having feelings for one another and not doing anything with it. It can be the greatest thing of your life. Plus, if it doesn't work out and the friendship is ruined, they are not a good friend to begin with. If they were friends with you long enough, they would not want to lose the friendship either. It will hopefully end on a good note, even if it takes some time too. So take the risk, it's a risk worth taking! [I am still ashamed, but proud of my fire men example ;) ]

If anyone disagrees, I would like to read some new criticism ! I write so you can read, and if you can write, I will read. Story telling is never ending.

Recap of my valentines day

Numero uno:   Stefan and I exchanged gifts. I got a pink cute ipod shuffle for when I go to the gym! ( http://www.apple.com/ca/ipodshuffle/?cid=jm ) After a couple of days trying to find a valentines day gift for him because I find buying a gift for a boy so hard on valentines day. I came across a digital picture frame key chain and uploaded all the pictures of me and him to it with some chocolate! You can never go wrong with some chocolate right?

Numero duo: We thought having dinner at a restaurant was a bad idea. First off, it's valentines day meaning... 3 hour wait? First come first serve? No way. So a nice dinner at one of our houses is what we did.

Numero tre: We went out for a movie, and watched "Valentines Day" To be honest, I enjoyed it and he enjoyed it too. It wasn't over dramatic or over romantic. It was a good movie for the season and made us laugh. So thats all that really matters.

Numero quattro? ( I need to practice my italian): After our third bag of popcorn, we went to Starbucks and stayed till closing. Their hot chocolate is amazing.

- I almost left my purse there... that had my ipod shuffle in it. Stupid me. I forget everything, just so you guys know. Normal behaviour for me.

Uhm.

Numero cinque: Overall, it was a great Valentines day, because it was simple, just the way I like it.
I hope everyone else had a great day, even if you weren't celebrating it with a special "someone". It's still an opportunity to be with your family and your friends whom are just as important and need lots of love. And if your alone.. its an awesome opportunity to eat lots of chocolate.


Hugs and Kisses Everyone From Meee :)

I'm trapped in a sea of loneliness
but loneliness has never felt any better.
The feeling of the empty, cold air grazing my skin.
The burn from the sun through my window.
Nothing has felt any better than that.
Loneliess is silence
Although no one has ever thought to embrace the moment of silence when they were feeling lonely because they are thinking too much of the sadness that comes with it.
They are thinking about dying alone
Thinking of the day they lost their job
or the one whom they love.
They are thinking too much about the lost
than the gain of absolute naked silence.
