its all worth it ...

Its friendship day all over the world and people have been sending out flowers , greetings , e-mails etc wishing their close friends .. why not ?? .. for all the good things that’ve happened to us would not have happeed if not for them ..

But is it just the good stuff ???

Lets see ..

My best buddy is back from London for a month and the first thing he does .. wakes me at 2 a.m and says “ dude .. am not able to sleep .. unable to adjust .. so why don’t you come over ?? “

People who know what a best bud means would’ve realized that I was not requested but ordered to do so ..

When you have a friend ,

You’re not alone in “anything” !!!!

Now don’t get too ecstatic .. this is not as good as it sounds .. kind of an inside joke that you play on yourself .. trust me .. most often than not .. it spells trouble on you ..

No matter whose fault it is .. you become an automatic choice for the teacher /prof ..

Right from fifth std when it was “prayas & dinesh get out “ to now when it is “silambarasan & dinesh get out “ .. you don’t have a choice .. you just get dragged along .. no matter where he goes .. its like” buy one , get one free” …

You’re responsible !!

Whenever you become a close friend of someone you unknowingly take an oath holding yourself to be responsible for all his mistakes and deeds .. sounds kinda scape goattish right ?? exactly !!

Its like a mirror’s reflection .. As long as he is good .. they’ve no problems with you what so ever ( by they I mean his family ) but otherwise you’ll be held responsible for all his stuff .. mostly foul language , failing to respect elders ( prof) and all such crap (oops !! foul language .. sorry !!)

You’ll be looked upon as a evil creature who spoiled their “innocent child“ .. And all this coz you chose to stay a few nights at his place to play ps2 .

You’re a dead man !!!

Its even worse when he falls in love .. not only do you’ve to hear his lame one sided love story 24x7 ( ask mohan & simbu .. they know it better .. lol ) but also give him ideas as to what he can do to get his girl .

And if it fails .. you’re a dead man !! “ I lost her coz of you “ (as if he was in her arms before ) else you’ll have to hear him whining for the rest of your life !!

Now I know why friends give their everything to make a guy reach his love ..

You just can’t say a NO !!

If they can’t giv you enough reason to make you do something .. here goes the default phrase .. “ I’m asking you as a FRIEND “ and you just can’t say a no .. even if it means driving your drunken friend 16 kms across the city to his gf’s hostel on New Year’s eve just coz he wants to wish her exactly at 12 ..

Guess you get what I’m saying .. they can be a pain in your ass sometimes but what is life without all that .. in case I’ve hurt someone here .. “ avlo dana machan :P”

Cheers :)
