Awkwardness in connection

Awkward silences when you think you know each other well.

And I try harder and harder.

Didn\’t we always talk and never stop talking? Then why these silences? Why the sudden pause as if we have nothing to say? What is the barrier? Have we forgotten what we had in common?

It seems that I am having this more and more. I don\’t want it. It\’s almost as if I am destroying the friendships slowly.

I don\’t want to be that person who ends up with no close friendships. And friendships become loose phone calls of hello and goodbyes. Or even worse short sentences on Facebook. It becomes superficial. Is this the beginning of that? And we live the rest of our lives in shallowness of friendship—to claim people are really there for us and they standing at the altar…a sign of depth, but in reality, it\’s none at all.
