She is crying in my arms again, he hurts her again, I am thinking to myself: how can I make her calm this time? What should I tell her now?

I really love my friend, she is so much more than a friend to me, she is one of the best people that I've ever met, I can consider her as a sister that I have never had, but she has some bad qualities (as we all have!) her big problem is her high emotion for her man and her good talent for getting hurt by him! You know, because of that I'm so good at counting good points of a real bad event, a real expert!

Some times I think that I'm betraying her by trying to find good things while that man of her has done a real bad thing but then I convince myself that :"no, i really love her and it's the only thing that I can do to make her relaxed, she, herself,  knows the bad parts of it well enough, so just tell her the good points"

Whenever she got hurt she calls me or trying to find me some how, she starts to cry and say to me that her world has finished and it was the worst thing that could happen to someone and ... then I start to tell her some stuff that I, myself, hardly believe, but they seem so logical to her, actually I know how to speak about good things and make her smile.

Last time, after all the cry part and my speech, she found out that her man loved her more than any one else, even more than me! (I think I overdid a bit!)

-ok dear, don't cry and tell me exactly what happened...
 I start my work again!
I'm just sure about one thing: I hate that man, he does everything he wants to but then it's my duty to clean up his mess, I just hate him!!

Keyword: my dear friend!

Posted by brandon_scott 2008-07-06 15:15:18 .... I noticed right away that there are numerous spelling and grammar mistakes that need cleaned up. Substance-wise I thought it was ok, but why would you convince your friend to go back into a bad situation? If it's so bad that she comes crying to you often, maybe you should be steering her in another direction, instead of back into the bad relationship. Sometimes looking for the positives isn't always the best answer. + Report this comment
Posted by lemon 2008-07-06 16:34:08 .... First thing I have to say is this statement rubs me the WRONG way 'and her good talent for getting hurt by him!' Whenever there is abuse going on its not the 'talent' of the person being abused. EVER. now, that said, I think you need to work on your grammar.. is english not your first language? (I ask that in all honesty not sarcastically). Also, I thought this kind of read like a jumbled thought not a story. don't get frustrated, keep trying =] + Report this comment
Posted by r.e.potter 2008-07-06 16:41:21 .... wow,,change your font. Its almost an illusion and I feel im seeing double...whoa. Good story but not much of a plot or story line. + Report this comment
Posted by Michelle Portz 2008-07-06 22:56:34 .... I didnt think it was so bad to read, but yes the font could change! I think alot of people can relate to this feeling of not trying to upset the person who being abused. Maybe you could write a follow up about being able to tell her how you really feel about the situation? Just a thought... + Report this comment
Posted by shirin 2008-07-06 23:18:12 .... thank u all for comments,i changed the font,wish u likw it this way,and yeah,english isn't my first language and that's the reason of those grammatical erors,i will try to make my english better and onething: brandon_scott!maybe u r right but i think everyone knows her/his best,so when we are upset about a bad situation,we know the bad points completely,we need to be relaxed and think abt positive and negative sides together. + Report this comment

Posted by chaabuk 2008-07-23 09:03:45 True Friends Some emotions tug at our heart. A true emotion more so. Friendship is one such feeling that will never go away, for it comes from the heart and remains with us for life. I like the truthfulness of your words. You have proven to be a true friend.
