How To Dismantle A Heart....


                How To Dismantle A Heart
Feelings are best expressed on a piece of paper. So, here I am jotting down one for my friend, trying to step in his shoes and view from his perspective.
It’s about a girl whom my friend says he loves but is pretty unsure of his feelings as he doesn’t know what to do. I did try to get a closure on his case and he was supportive enough to share it with me. Although the truth is that he had no option left and so here I am.
To start with, the most common love story, saw a girl, liked that girl, tried to talk with her but his behavior and habits “pissed” her off to be specific. Now, on the verge of breakdown (although he won’t accept it), somehow he’s trying to transfer his emotions into hatred for her but yet there lies the “soft” spot for her.
In her view, he’s a drunkard, a smoker, a filthy person and god knows what else. Well, yeah, he’s all of the above except for the fact that he’s a good human being and somehow she doesn’t want to see this.
Apparently, she’s just like the most of the girls, who tries to judge a person by their habits. Yes, habits do define a person’s image but it can never define the person from within. And, yes he drinks but it all started as an adrenaline rush but now most of the times he drinks so that he doesn’t drown in the sorrow of her and yes, he smokes but just to calm the nerves when he’s mind is infiltrated with random thoughts of her. I’m not saying that whatever he does is right, he does need to mend his ways but whenever he tries to, the very moment her thoughts start engulfing him again and weakens him to the very core and hence the addiction. But, still he has promised to get rid of his addictions.
It was not her fault that he started falling for her but neither was it his fault. It just happened, maybe not in a moment but over a period of time. His love or likeness (whatever would you want to call it) is “innocent”. He’s like a clueless person rowing a boat all by himself in a vast ocean and doesn’t know which direction to go, all he knows is that he has to reach an island.
In my view, the best thing that love offers is “innocence”.  And, some girls consider this innocence for stupidity while some; well they just fall in love with it. And, slowly enough, when your innocence is interpreted as stupidity by that person, then you tend to think, that person is “haughty”.
He said me that she had an attitude problem and she also was shy. But, how can a person be shy and attitude conscience at the same time..!!!! So, further observation brought me to the above conclusion, that she was just shy and did not poses an attitude problem but as I said people do misinterpret it and he did the same or maybe still doing the same..!!!!  So, this is his whole story and she isn’t talking to him still so I suggested him the best way out, “Step out of her life; if she can’t see the you for who you’re, then you can “never” make her see it”.
So, this is how you dismantle a heart…!!!!

So, AAGHRAN, as you requested me to write something about your scenario, so I did and that too while I was on a train…!!!! You’re one of the nicest person on earth that I know and ‘am grateful to have a friend like you, “GHUSU”……..!!    J J J
