you have been telling me stories about some of your friends who are having confusions regarding their feelings for people in their lives. well, let me give them my own set of opinions with respect to this subject. may they find my advice helpful enough in order for them to reach their personal decisions. in the end, it is their responsibility to settle these matters. they are the ones who must make the choice.

situation #1:

x1 adores x2 very much. they have been constantly communicating with each other although they live far from one another. however, everytime x1 tries to talk about intimate relationship, x2 always changes the topic of their conversation. because of this, x1 thinks that x2 only wants them to stay as they are... as friends. at the moment, x1 stops talking to x2. x1 cannot stand the idea that they are just meant to remain as friends.

situation #2:

y1 does not bother talking to y2 about all things in life. y1 is not afraid to say things that might ruin the personality. y1 knows that y2 will accept everything about y1. in time, y1 believes that y2 is already the one. this has been true for so long. but now, y1 is having doubts about the feelings for y2. is y2 really the true love y1 is waiting for? or is y2 the best buddy y1 needs whenever there is trouble?

situation #3:

z1 is puzzled about the real score between z1 and z2. there are times that z1 feels so close to z2. yet, there are also instances when z1 perceives that z2 is too far away. with all the twists and turns on their relationship, everything is still unclear for both of them. neither of z1 or z2 inquires about intimacy. z1 is now asking whether to tell everything to z2 or just let everything be.

what can i say?

i am sure that i will also be uncertain of the path to choose if i am in any of those situations above. however, i am certain that the problem requires solution. therefore, i will start weighing factors. i will seek help from people who have already gone through this experience. most importantly, i will take the risk of having a stand. it may not go in my favor, at least i will have no what-if. i may get hurt along the way, but i will not continue guessing what might have been.

your friends' friend,
