Walking Out the Old... Walking In the New!! 

Happen to meet my old gang last weekend. It was a re-union after many years.

We were aware about each other’s updates and were happy for some of us getting married and few of us upgrading to mom and dad.

We all were pretty close but as life moved on… priorities changed and so did the friend circle.

But finally we decided and implemented a plan of re-union.  

It was great coming back and reviving all the funny incidents.

And then one of our friends shared the news.

She said… she got separated legally last year. It was quiet shocking…!!!

All we knew was… she is married happily and settled somewhere in Europe.

But then… she poured her heart out.

And… I must say it was a brave decision.

She has started afresh and she is better off.

Then one by one three of our friends shared their story…

where 2 of them are waiting for legal separation and third one is through with it.

Ahh…

I know what you are thinking.

The basic reason one will conclude is…

Lifestyle has changed.

Nowadays girls have become more demanding and independent.

Now they are not that tolerant the way our parents or grand parents used to be.

But unfortunately,

These friends of mine have struggled for years together before they landed up with a decision to take a complete full stop.

It’s not about a girl or a guy.

It’s about not getting along with a partner and in turn spoiling your whole life. 

Separating legally is not a simple thing. It’s a mental and emotional trauma.

In fact it affects the duo involved the most.

And if they are still going on for a legal separation I believe we need to respect their opinion and their guts.

It’s always good to start afresh instead of dying every day in a sinking ship.

Hats off to all my such friends.
