More than Friendship

There exist relationships that lose boundaries; friends becoming brothers and sisters; brothers becoming more than friends, and like this, there exists one relation where one friend becomes more than a friend and yet not comes under the category of love. In today's time, such stories do exist. If we look deeply into our lives, we will find various kinds of vacuum in our personal life. This vacuum got created due to an isolated way of living. Living away from family. Living with friends yet not finding one with whom u can bear your soul. If such relation had been or was there in past then I will call them not good for society. But now such relations are created by the system, are a necessity, and cause more good than harm.

Above and later in this page wherever I am mentioning society or people then I am referring to people like me who came out of their hometown, staying away from family, independent, and do fulfill their materialistic needs on their own.

People living in the metro like NCR away from family do have many friends; it's common. But how many of those friends are available for help in any situation. It practically can't be assured that any one of them would turn up for help. Because friends can't be there all the time and at all places. Here comes one category of friends which are more than friends and gone step ahead in creating relationships where they support each other in any situation whether its crisis at work, personal end or its emotional front. The emotional front could be due to family, friends, or your boy/girlfriend.

So, if you see this category is like giving what all expected from committed people but without any expectation like committed people. It is strange because in this relation two share bonding very much like loved ones but it is not that they are in love. It's just they have found someone to whom they can care and share almost all that they have emotionally. But mind it, all this done within being as a friend.

Even the two in such relation know their boundary from the beginning. Thus no such expectation creeps in, which makes such relation more strong as they both know how true they are to themselves and to their love-partners. Often in such cases, one of them won't be committed to anyone else. If both such friends are committed and in love with someone else then such relation won't work. One of them or both should not be committed(so-called in Love).

The only drawback of such relation is that there will be occasions when the line gets blurred or friends start to feel the heat of expectation due to other commitments. Anyway such relations last until one of them get full-time support from their loved ones.

Would like to route to a link that gives the poetic version of what I meant.
