As my first year in college slowly draws to an end( only two more months to go), I have realised that i have lost something very important....
I have always had people in my life who didnt like me or couldnt stand me and I really didnt care about them
Then i came to college....
For the first time in my life everybody seemed to like me ( probably because they havent been exposed to my mean temper). The feeling gave me such a high. I was the favoured one in all my friend circles.
But i reacted very differently to this situation. Throughout school life i was very forthright about what i felt was correct and what wasnt. In college when you are liked by all it becomes very difficult to actually disagree with anyone. I mean the thought of getting my point across to somebody would mean hours of pondering.
It was as if i just couldnt be firm anymore . I would feel that one disagreement and nobody would like me anymore, my real side would be exposed.
Now i have realised the importance of having your opinion. I dont want to lose it. What i just need to learn is to calmly get my point across..after all they are my friends...
happy u realized dis...hav been observing it sum time nw...its gud 2 b liked by other ppl...it was as rare 4 me as 4 u..n v prolly landed up in similar situation in coll...but neva compromise urself...u ll not only lose ur opinion but also ur identity...
ReplyDeletetotally going thru the same situation here!
ReplyDeletei dont know about being liked by all in my frend circles, but i have never got into any arguments in colg. thats coz i used to argue mostly with boys and such arguments have often been resolved by bishoom-bishooms. but now the yes-i-agree-with-you-and-even-if-i-dont-agree-i'll-not-show -it thing is getting really boring. all my temper is venting up inside me in the form of frustration. never know when i'll implode.
