catching up...!!

i met up with an old friend after a whole 7 months 18 days to be precise...
it never ceases to amaze me how we can always talk exactly from the point we left last even if we are speaking after ages...

The best thing about good friends is that no matter how long u stay apart, its like uve never been gone and it was just yesterday that u spoke last...updating each other with whatevers happening...
and then u realise, a lot happened that 'yesterday' which only SEEMED 24 hours away...

Yes totally true.

I talked to my friend like 5 yrs later.. and we did the same thing.. a lot had happened in btw.. but then we didnt care about what we both missed in the middle... we just wanted to make a present that was so full of us.. and our talks and our memories.

I guess thats what true friendship is all about.

i guess all of my best friends... have had this session with me.. after years..

Its always different with good friends. Most importantly you dont even have to think of not pretending .. hehe .. I mean it doesnt ever comes to your mind ;)

good friends are after all good friends.

This is exactly what my friend said to me when we met after quite sometime..thats the way it is but sometimes it sucks to be all alone..then outa no where your long lost frainds show up & you've to pretend that everything's the same..i don't know about you but this is the first things that strikes me whenever i meet long lost frainds..it sucks!
Bah what the heck..never mind:)

ceedy said...

its a stopwatch funda....

the longest i met someone was after 16 years....and still it just felt like yesterday....

Solitaire said...

This is so true! I am so thankful that I am blessed with such friends myself.

Pri said...

@ preetilata
well im grateful too...they are one of the reasons im still sane (or atleast i think i am..lol!!)

@ an illusion
i understand what u mean...and yes have pretty much been there myself too...
but in a way, u learn to ignore whats been troubling u in the process of pretending...and sometimes that helps u heal faster :)
i know it feels like a 'u-can-run-but-u-cant-hide' scenario but there comes a point where u are happy with running and dont really feel the need to hide...
and thats when u realise u learning to face it!
i dunno if im making much sense to u... a lil cryptic if u not going on the same track as me :)

@ ceedy
woww...i dunno if il'l ever have such friends...but i hope i do :)

@ solitaire
same here...touchwood! :D

radiohead said...

Anonymous said...

Yes i am getting you & indeed sometimes ignoring does helps but then i also tend to ignore the person as well..seriously!
Yeah running away is good but its good to face em coz running away is tiresome & eventually you've to give it up..anyhoo i am done with commenting..laters:)

lizzie said...
