Alls Fair In Love And War

John Lylys once said " The rules of fairplay do not apply in love and war" how true is this statement. How many of us have lost something due to love? I have and im guessing everyone reading this has too. Either way when fighting in a war or a battle of love, we all lose something at both ends of the spectrum. But why though? Why do we risk friendship for an absurd fantasy of love? How can we really know that we ourselves actually know what love is? is love when you feel butterflies in your stomach or getting sweaty palms? because that sounds more like an illness than love. Is love actually an illness maybe? And why jeopardize those around us to have more than we already do? It does not make sense. Im asking myself this as its already happened to me. Though mine wasn't one of happily ever after love in fairytales where the maiden is in love with the prince. In my story its more like, maiden wanted another friend to go to the arcade with her. No fairytale love or outrageous adventures, just two people honestly talking about things I was scared to admit to my other friends and versing each other in car racing games.

I am a girl and I have know idea why I do half the things I do, and this is one of them. I didn't mean to upset my friends by doing this and I was sorry when they told me, it wasn't ok. I guess now i understand why it isn't but before I didn't. The story begins where my best friend had another guy friend and stupid me thinking they were just friends. even though both parties said they were just friends. This brings my second point, why do we send mixed signals to people? if we dont want something to happen shouldn't we just tell that person, instead of sending them on a wild goose chase ? isn't honesty the policy anymore or has it been conquered by lies? Anyways back to the story, I began talk and hang out with such guy friend and tell my best friend, now things are uncertain as she hasn't answered any of my calls or texts this morning, though im pretty sure she's still mad. Even though nothing has happened between me and such guy friend, I know that are friendship will be on the rocks for a while.  Now this brings my third point, Why do people say were just friends if its not true? if you like a person and you say were just friends, shouldn't we also say that we also have other feelings for them? let me know in the comments below because im pretty sure im losing my mind on this teenage dilemma.
