Friendships, Feelings, Engineering & Misunderstandings


Well people, it’s not easy being a guy, and that too a guy who is sensitive and has chosen Engineering as a major. I tell you, it sure takes a lot out of you! Now I'm a person whose life totally revolves around his friends (Or that is what I'd like to believe. Lol) All this is smooth and fine till you realize that you have feelings for someone whom you've know for a really long time and until now had no clue that you were falling for her. You want to spend more time with her, and God damn you want to tell her how you feel, and you always have this fear of "What if she says NO!!" All of this somehow makes your friends feel that you don't have time for them ("Oohh ...You're NEGLECTING US !!, You're Changing, etc. are the usual remarks.)

Now things start getting a little complicated ... "Priorities" as a friend said to me ... "Set Your Priorities" (In a completely pissed off tone). Like they say "Rock, Hard place ... and Me". You are literally vacillating. Now to make matters worse comes Engineering ... It fills your life with journals, assignments, presentations, class tests and submission deadlines. So now you have time for no one. Here "Misunderstandings" make a grand entry. Your friends think that your lying when you tell them that you can't make it, and this person you have feelings for ... haha, forget it ('cos IT HURTS !! ... Lol) and then the cherry on top of this cake, Engineering, which chases you like a dog chasing a cat and this same cat chasing a mouse. The messed up part is that you end up feeling like all three of them, you are just not sure of which one exactly, a dog, a cat or a mouse ? You're in between the devil and the deep blue sea, Man !!

I tell you this man, its not easy being a guy ... It’s like Friendships, Feelings, Engineering & Misunderstandings have surrounded you ... They each have a rope around your neck and keep pulling you with equal amounts of force. You ... just don't know where to go ...
