… nothing is more frightful than laughter.

So I was googling and I came across a website about relationships. In this website people tell their situation and ask for advice for certain problems that they are currently facing. There was one girl that really caught my attention because her problem was about her boyfriend and her best friend hanging out together. This is what she wrote:

“I have been going out with this guy for one month. My best friend and him are now always around each other, but I am not usually there. They consider themselves good friends, but it bothers me. They always seem to forget me and they just hang out together. They say they are not attracted to each other, but something tells me otherwise. I know this just may be jealousy, but it really bothers me that it is just them two always together when I am not there. I know something may be going on between them. Please give me some advice”

Lately Michael and I have been talking about my best friend a lot. I guess that he has realized that my best friend and I do have a really strong bond. He has realized that we care a lot about each other.

The other day we were talking about his best friend and my best friend, and I guess we were just testing the lines that each one of us would draw when it comes to the relationship we would establish with them. It was a very healthy conversation, and I really liked being able to express some concerns about this subject. He asked me if I would be jealous about him having a relationship with my best friend. Naturally I said no because I genuinely trust my boy friend, but most of all, my best friend. She has never given me a reason to doubt her in this matter.

However, after reading that girl’s feelings I stated to really think it over. To what extent would I be able to accept that my man and my best friend are close?

I’m not sure. I actually mean it.

The thing is that it is very easy for me to say that I trust them both but… is it really all about trust? Not really. I think that it is more about wanting no one to take the attention of the person you love away from you. It’s about hating the idea of seeing your man laughing with another girl or touching her; the idea of his mind drifting away from you. Considering that my best friend is a very funny girl, there might come a time when their relationship will bother me.

I don’t think that Michael is the type of guy that would hang out with my best friend without me being around. Even so, I’m SURE that my best friend would never have this kind of relationship with him. The closest she would get to do something like that would be to organize some surprise party for me. :)
