Guys ,Always Keep Your Dignity

I guess i am in the mood for writing today , this being my third post today.Something which happened with one my cousins brought me to this topic.My cousin brother a nice easy going guy liked a girl from his class when he was in guess 11th or 12th grade.The girl was also pretty friendly to him.As time passed along , he kind of started noticing that the girl was being friendly to him but was trying to get closer to one of his best friends.He speculated the girl used his liking for him to get more close with his friend.He was kind of disappointed when this speculation turned true.At no point did the girl tell him that she liked his friend.This of course happened long time back and now me and my bro laugh off this incident when we talk.But basically the point is had things been more clearer he would have never developed more feelings for this girl.Or if she had been straightforward and told him that she liked his friend , he would have introduced him to her.But neither thing happened which left him a bit deflated that time.Whether it is relationships or sport , i always believe it is important to leave with your head held high.The great Kapil Dev was reduced to a mere Shadow of himself when he retired with people asking when is he leaving.On the other hand people like Sunil Gavaskar,Anil Kumble,Dada Ganguly left on a bang with people asking why are the leaving?I guess the same fact applies in relationships as well , especially for guys.Despite what the popular belief is that girls are more emotional and sensitive , i think it is the other way round.Guys take a lot of time to develop an emotional bond with someone , but once they do develop an emotional connection they are really really attached to that person.That is why i think that at times guys don't know when to say quits in a relationship.But in some cases like my brothers , the gal never told him or gave him an indication of whats coming thereby denying him that chance to leave without hurting his feelings.To his credit , even though he was hurt he never showed it.He didn't create a fuss.He took it in his stride.Of course i am not saying all gals are like my cousin brothers friend.I was just giving an example.To all my friends who read this post especially guys i can only say that guys if u like someone love someone thats great , but at the end of the day always maintain your dignity and self respect .In case the relationship goes awry, always leave with dignity.Gals always say that we are sensitive and all this stuff but trust me guys it is the guy who ends up getting heartbroken in the end.To all the girls like my cousins friend if u like someone else fine , its your own life , but for someone who likes you a lot even if you don't have any feelings for that person , give that guy a chance to leave with his head held high.If u like someone else please be frank , never play around with someones feelings.
