learningbrain Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 I didn't meet my friend for a long period of time. I was having my exams when she came the coaching academy and when I came back to the coaching academy hr exams started so she resumed her classes. I was looking forward to meet her tomorrow. I asked her if she would come to the coaching academy, today in the morning. She said that her exams were being conducted during the time of academy classes. So said she wouldn't able to meet me. She also mentioned that she might go to her grandma's house after exams. I thought I would meet her yesterday but today she messaged me that she is the bus to her grandma's house. I was sad. I was actually planning to go to her house by running 5 km (I can run 5 km). I even imagined how I would wake her up. I imagined I would blow air in her face to wake her up.ย Do I have feelings for her? I know that I am a Little(actually a lot) biased towards her like I wouldn't say or do that if it weren't her. I also feel that she isn't worth my attention. I often feel she is lying to me on purpose. At That time she promisedย me she would come to the railway station when I was going to my home town. I called her 2 hours before the train's arrival and asked her if she would still meet me and she was sure she would come. I even asked her to stop if she is not feeling well. She insisted on coming to meet me. She didn't come to meet in the end. Even though she gave me an explanation. That explanation was good ar that moment but when I analysed with my grandma it was having a lot of missing links. It was clear that she was lying. I told to my friend and she said she was giving off witch vibes and she is kind of a person who commits just because it feels good at that moment but doesn't full fill the commitment. Even my friend feels Im biased towards her. I am a straight forward. I don't say things I can't do. I simply just can't say things just like that. Whenever my relatives ask me if I would attend thier event and I know I wouldn't attend I would say I would come to thier event . I just smile. I was born in that kind of a family. I know that I am the youngest and can say that I will attend thier event but I don't.. MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

learningbrain Posted April 5 Author Share Posted April 5 New development my grandma told me me not to talk to her. I came late to home since I was talking to her so she was angry on me. She was so tensed because I was late. She asked me to stop talking to her. She says she isn't useful and is a distraction. She asked me why I didn't inform her that I would come late to home. I promised that I wouldn't talk to her. The crazy thing is I was feeling really sleepy during my classes and I imagined a character similar to her during that day dreaming. Another crazy thing is she messaged me all on her own to tell me that she was leaving early to home because she has to buy some things for her brother. I am the one who usually asks questions.

learningbrain Posted April 5 Author Share Posted April 5 I don't say my friend is perfect. She isn't a good friend. She lies to me. I feel that It should be my decision to break the friendship. What do you think? MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digital Mentor Aurora Posted April 5 Digital Mentor Share Posted April 5 Hi there @learningbrain, thanks for reaching out. I just want to check that I understood everything you said correctly. I hope you don't mind. It sounds likeย you are friends with a girl, who you think you might have feelings for.ย You have noticed that she lies to you and isn't a good friend. Therefore you don't know if you should continue your friendship. However, rather than you deciding for yourself whether or not you want to continue the friendship your grandmother has now said she doesn't want you to be friends anymore. Not only that - she is going as far as saying that you have to decide between your friend and her (your grandmother.) Is that right?ย Can I ask, why do you think your grandmother feels so strongly about this?ย MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True. ย 5 hours ago, Aurora said: You have noticed that she lies to you and isn't a good friend. Yes. I ended up thinking like she didn't like put me in hold because of her uncertainty(if we ever dated). My standards fell down. My standards should be loving and caring partner. Staying together a basic requirement. Like it just seems like I'm happy she isn't cheating on me. My grandma got agitated because I came home one hour late which is a long period of time and I didn't tell her. She was worried a lot. I understand that. It was hestrical that day. A lot of emotions. I even she isn't emotionally fit for a real relationship. She is pretty confused. 6 hours ago, Aurora said: Therefore you don't know if you should continue your friendship. I didn't even consider it.

I felt she was blushing(may be not). She was definitely flaring her nostrils and I think that's a sign of being attracted to someone.

I get the impression that your grandmother is being protective over you and isn't happy with the way your friend is treating you. It sounds like when you are with your friend, you can get carried away and for example you end up coming home late, which worries your grandma. It's nice that you're trying to understand where your grandmother is coming from but I can also understand why you want to make your own decisions. I'm wondering whether you could speak to your grandma about this. Maybe you can have a conversation about how important it is to navigate friendships and relationships ourselves and that this is what makes us learn and grow. Maybe you could ask her what it was like for her growing up and if she learnt more when she was told what to do or when she figured things out for herself. Do you think that might work? How have things been with your friend?ย MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She is the only follower I had. She didn't notice. Okay that's fine she isn't that active on Instagram but she didn't notice. She isn't paying that much attention. She is always like that.

I doubt that. It's definitely think I'm attracted to her. I don't know why. My grandma is away for a while. I called her yesterday. Something funny happened in my school so I wanted to share that and called her. Look at the coincidence. It's not really a coincidence. My grandma asked me to stop talking to her (long ago) and I called her yesterday. My grandma knows that. I told my grandma that I talked to her. She even says I turn mad when I'm with her that's why she asked me to stop talking to her. I enjoyed listening to her. Here I don't know if it's the topic (she ranting her anger on her classmates who were saying indecent words in the classroom) she was talking about or I was just enjoying just because it was her. I think It's her not the topic which intrested me. I'm not 100 percent sure but like 80 percent sure. I told her what happened at my school. She reacted in a way I expected. I really enjoyed this particular moment. MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
