Changes

How do people change so much?
From friends to lovers? From lovers to heartbreakers? From two people trying to mend broken dreams to two people who seem to be irritated at the other person for whatever reason?

How do we change so quickly? What happened to that love, that fondness, that intimacy and the smiles we used to have whenever we would see each other?

It is so sad when a love affair dies, when two people who were once best friends and inseparable seem unable to stand one another. It is so sad, really breaks my heart, to be spoken to and treated like everything I say can be dismissed as nonsense and fantasy, or worse words of someone who has emotional or mental problems.

But there comes a point, a point when enough is enough, when all the signs and friends around you suggest that a relationship with another person is no longer worth it and that life is much lighter, much less treading on eggshells or choosing your words very carefully and more about protecting your own dignity and sanity.
