Growing Up to Accept Love

There is a huge difference in between being friendly with someone and being in love with that person. This is where most of us fail to draw the line. My friend had to learn it the hard way, when his “friend” actually invited him for her engagement.
That was probably too late for him to understand that he was in love, or rather “has always been in love with her” – as he told us later on.
What could he have done about it then? Nothing, but attend her wedding, which took place after about 6 months, and spend some days sulking to himself.
So what should have been different here?
A few very simple things for us to learn here with regards to being friendly and being in love:

• Do grow up and start recognizing your feelings
• Show enough courage and let the girl know how you feel about her
• Be true to yourself and to the person for whom you may have developed the feelings
• Don’t be too aggressive with your approach, or things may go wrong
• Try to be yourself. Never put up a false appearance in front of her to please her
• However, do make sure that it is more than friendship before approaching your lady

It is a good thing to understand that it is worth a try to let her know about your feelings. If you keep your feelings to yourself, she will never understand how you may have felt for her. But if you do tell her how things are, you stand a chance to take it further.
Grow up, aim well and shoot that arrow if you think that you are in love! And make sure you do so before she gets engaged!
