How is it that everyone around me from friends to strangers think that we are “lovers”. I don’t get it. I thought it was just something random from my crazy roommate. But when I hear strangers suggesting we are more than friends, “romantic”… I flinched. I feel very uncomfortable. No doubt I like my friend and appreciate her presence in my life a huge deal but this is just all too much for me to stomach. I know my reaction to everything regarding us is huge but I can’t take it. I don’t want to explain something that is not that, and something I really don’t want between us (feelings mutual for her too). And I can’t help but feel we can’t be as close as we usually are because of this silly fear that people may think we are “more than friends”.
There was once I even held her hand in public to “protest” against the silly allegations against us. Truth is I love her company and I really like having her around. But I am very sure this will not border into romantic inclinations. As for friends that think we have more, I’m sorry to have disappointed you. We’re also disappointed in you too. :|
