JUST BECAUSE.....


While it is okay to become very close friends with others, does that make you side with that person whenever s/he has made enemies? The reason I ask this question is because I know for a fact that friends have the tendency to "gang up" on someone just to show "support" to the person being favored more, irregardless of the situation, even though, the other party is not proven wrong, or is not even aware of any convictions already made by the accusing side. It happens in school, mostly to the , and teenagers, or let's say, even in college life...But what is so disappointing and frustrating is when it happens to people who are old enough to be able to teach the younger generations what is right and what is wrong. It is a shame, that these "mature" people set bad examples to their and grandchildren as well. These are the same people who purposely do not unfriend the unfavored person, thereby, making themselves as spies or extra eyes and ears for the other. If that is an example of the saying, "There Is Strength In Numbers", then...count me out..A true friend is able to say to the other not only good things, but constructive criticisms as well...If you are not happy with the friendship anymore..by all means, leave...

Meann, I agree. I don't even side with my unico hijo if I know that he is not right. With the "adults", I do believe that they are capable of winning their own battle without a kakampi. One has to be confident enough to be responsible for his own actions.

I admire people who do not take sides just to keep the friendship from being derailed. Expectations do come from friends..And that is where your judgement really works, Tinkz..Thanks.

And that is very understandable, Jane...Specially, if the break-up was not done in good taste (do they ever, really? ). The way, I see it, that the one who married the foreigner may have not been tactful enough to realize the sensitivity of the situation. Sometimes, we can just be neutral by not doing anything or refraining from commenting about the other specially if it shows a bit favorable to the other side..It does hurt, no matter what, and even if the girl didn't mean to slight you...Oh well,
