After what seems like forever, I met again 2 friends whom I greatly admire. The 3 of us are generations apart but when we’re together, one would think that we shared the same womb at the same time. We turned the places upside down with our nerve-wrecking stories and roaring laughter.
We came from different origins, hence we delight in each other’s unique journey. The first one was a dedicated teacher, now an awesome painter/artist. She advocates eating everything in moderation.The second one is a fashion designer who plans to diversify into professional aesthetics. She is sporting No-Carbs Diet with fasting which in our opinion is no longer needed because she is already perfectly slim. And the last one is yet to explore her true calling, given her recklessness and wandering mind. She loves to eat most especially sweets yet dreams of a 38-28-38 figure.
The teacher was once blessed with a true and passionate love. She is now a widow. The designer haven’t got the slightest clue what it meant to be magically transported to heaven and back, for she never reached that peak in love. And the wanderer did experience bliss albeit very short-lived.
We urge the youngest in the group to be open to dating so she could find a boyfriend and settle down. She boldly confessed that she has zero desire for romance, so she doesn’t need a husband nor a lover in her life. She went on saying that she’s quite contented and happy talking with her matured male friends. They are not romantically linked to each other but their close relationships help her grow spiritually and intellectually.
Indeed, platonic love is a joy in itself. Though many find it hard to believe that such kind of love could exist between a man and a woman, it does happen in very rare occasions. Like in the case of my friend’s.
In my case however, I am so easy to fall in love. It would be safe if I don’t get intimate with a male friend. I unsuspectingly opened my heart to someone before and it was brutally ripped to a thousand pieces. When you lose your boyfriend who is also your best friend, the pain is so deep that healing takes longer than you can ever imagine.
How about you? Do you prefer platonic love? Or would you rather enjoy an erotic one instead hahahah ...
