I do
not have a lot of friends because I am actually hard to deal with. I have a
frank and strong attitude towards other people but I believe that I am a good
friend in my own simple ways. I can be a good friend but a bad enemy.
I have friends in college and I had
created a great bond with them because I consider them not just friends but
sisters at heart. We’ve been together since first year college until we
graduated. We had our review for the board examination and when it was a week
before the examination, I was bombarded with the truth.
A friend talked to me and told me
that she doesn’t like me. She told me that I am overacting, moody and jealous.
She told me a lot of negative things but it was too difficult to comprehend at
that time, things were running into my head. It lasted for almost 30 minutes
and when she stopped talking, I stood up and walked, she held my hand and from
that moment, I wanted to break down and cry but I did not.
Until now, I am still attached unto
that time because I wasn’t able to ask her if she actually treated me as a
friend, but I am afraid to ask and know the truth. It took her almost four
years to tell me the truth. It made a mark in my existence and in my life.
Thus, I have trust issues with people around me because of that event.
Telling the truth is difficult
because it takes a lot of guts and power to do so because we can never tell if
how much pain we can cause to a person. I believe that from the very start, we
must show who we are and what we truly feel to a person. We should reveal to
them all the things that we need to hear.
Let us not wait for that person to
hear the truth from others; it is best when it is from our own mouth so that we
can be sure to tell everything that we feel towards him/her. Being honest is
complex but telling the truth can help us understand better of what’s in front
of us.
