最熟悉的陌生人

No, this is not my favourite song, but the title really struck me for tonight.

I wonder how many of you have this similar experience, that someone who was once very close to you, suddenly seem like a stranger to you overnight?

I remembered a gal friend once shared with me her experience on this extraordinary friendship with this guy. For some special unknown reasons, they clicked very fast and began to chat on the phone almost every night. By some special reasons again, their friendships eroded twice as fast, and they behaved like strangers to each other now.

Another gal shared with me this afternoon on something pretty similar. She has broken up with her gf since 6mths ago, and she thought she has already got over the r/s. This morning, she took leave to settle some admin stuffs in town, and was reminded of this place which she used to have dates with her ex. All the words and promises made by him to her suddenly became so real and near, but she realised with a pang of unbearable force that her ex is nothing more like a stranger to her now. The break off was a sudden one.

I guess most of u shld have experienced something similar, be it friendships or bgr r/s, including myself. And when such things happened, it always leave the poor soul to ponder and wonder why the sudden change in situation.. why why why..... Well, only the other party who has chosen to turn his/her back away will know why, but she/he may not tell. The feeling sux, but what can he/she do?

As the days go by, the answer may be revealed - when the picture becomes clearer, and when the understanding deepens. It may also remain as a mystery for life. Or most likely, it may not matter to you anymore....
