Friendship is such a beautiful yet bizarre thing. In life, we make thousands of acquaintances among which the tiny little fraction is what we call our friends.
If I've understood one thing about friendship so far, it's that it's not a business. We don't do things for friends expecting they would do the same in return. We do them because we want to. We want to because we are confident enough that the person on the other side deserves it. We trust them. We know, if someday we need them, they would be there putting their everything into it.
However, once that trust is broken, it can't be revived. Betrayal rips our heart apart. After that, our capability to trust is lost. T.S. Eliot once wrote, 'Unreal friendship may turn to real, but real friendship, once ended, cannot be mended.'
