Why?

Strange but true, most of us tend to ignore our friends for boyfriends/girlfriends.

The all goody-goody feeling of coming across somone of one's choice or beyond one's expectation often overwhelms the kind of attention or respect friends deserve.

No matter how much we pretend but we actually start ignoring or gradual minimising interaction with that very friends' circle, which may've stood by us in all seasons of life when we were aloof.

We wish these all-weather friends should learn to bear with our busyness or long vanishing-period without intimation at times. But do we wish the same treatment being meted out to us, if we required them in future.

It looks highly indecent of us, as we tend to act put off by those very individuals who have been the joy of our lives till we found this newcomer in our lives.

Also, at times, some of us even turn shockingly straight-forward, selfish or insensitive to others' desire of spending time with us like before over a cup of tea or loitering around in markets or meeting points like before.

We begin valuing our mood and ignoring others' joys. We don't give much value to others' concerns, wishes, or needs.

But what we fail to remember as the equally true fact is that these are the same friends, whose shoulders we desperately yearn for to share and sob by the end of the honeymoon phase of our brief love life.
