How do you have a relationship with someone and not let your closest friend in on it?
That's weird as hell! Okay. That's what I heard actually. A certain 'Q' is having a relationship for five months with one 'R' and Q's best fren/ex have no idea because well shit would hit the fan (as the common saying goes. who came up with that anyway? have shit actually hit the fan before? Can you imagine the after math of it all? Deepest condolences to the dude/dudette who first witnessed that shitty event.)
So what, you say? well, this is what. both Q and the bestie/ex belong to a group that balances on a seriously warped dynamics. Which can only mean that the fan that the shit would hit is on high speed, darling, and crap is gonna spread far and wide. Which brings me to a deeper ponder-ation.
Having a group of close girlfriends, is like having 3 lovers who know one another but don't really like you hanging out with the one or the other. They can sit at the same table and sometimes, they might joke with one another, but all the while they are holding a cleaver close to that well-loved love handles of yours. I mean you love all of em, but you also wanna change your address sometimes and pretend that your answering machines broke down or that famous line ' you smsed me? damn! must've been lost in the virtual space somewhere cos I didn't receive it', while you reach in your bag and quickly delete any evidence.
It's alil sick. sometimes you're even more afraid of your close girlfriends than you were of your mother when you know you had been caught sneaking out. Of course, for Indian daughters, that fear NEVER goes away. Cause where i come from, mothers have the eternal right to test that butt even when you are fifty. And that is not a joke.
Anyway, good luck to Q. I'll keep ya updated on the sad drone of my life by leeching on the excitement of others.
