Romantic Friendship - Again


Pre Script : One of may earlier posts that made some healthy conversations and still stays as most visited post.Re-posting for new friends to breeze through and share their feelings

Read on......

Vinodh is a Technical lead in a leading software services firm.He got married to Sheela a year back.And their relationship and marriage was purely arranged by both of their parents.Sheela is also a software professional.

Their married life was happy and streamlined for six months.Later it did not continue smoothly.

Saran.He is a very close friend of Sheela.And they are very close from their college days.Both of them joined the same firm after their college as well.

Vinodh said "Ok.Let him be your friend or wat ever,all these days.Now you got married and why do you need a male friend when am there for you."

She said " Vinodh.I clearly told you about him,before our marriage.He is my close friend and i cant be without him.

They were very close, that they shared the same room when they were posted abroad from their firm.They shared friendship and love.

Vinodh was not very clear on Sheela's thoughts so he stoped asked anything about him and acted normal for sometime.
Saran used come to visit Sheela often.And their friendship continued.

Vinodh happened to read some of Sheela's personal emails and letters to Saran.It was highly personal.It had all the open expressions of love for one another.But Sheela shows the same love and affection to Vinodh.

Vinodh was confused.

Later one day he took Sheela to beach shore.They sat there.It was a fullmoon day.The cool breeze planed Sheela's hair.She looked beautiful on the moon light as she adjusted the thin hair along her ears.Slowly she leaned on his shoulders embracing him around his hip and said

"Vino.I feel secure in your arms and accomplished"

"Sheela...hmm.." he paused for a while and added "when u like Saran so much.Why you didnt marry him ? " asked Vinodh.
Sheela starred at Vinodh.

Beach waves voiced.

him"

Sheela stood up and said.
She spoke."Vinodh.Are u still not happi with our friendship"
Vinodh said "If its pure friendship am fine.But u are really close with him.. that's the reason...i cant...i cant digest..why u didnt marry him."

She said "Vinodh.hmm yeah am very close with him.but i cant marry him..Marriage is different"

Vinodh cant control and yelled....
"What the heck..whats the difference.i r..ead all your emails to him..u discuss everything thing with him..every moment in your life..those things which you cant discuss to any other man other than your husband.Then why the hell u married me and not
"Vinodh.You have to understand this,
Saran is my friend and yes i have lots of love and affection on him.
And i have the same love and affection on you as well.
I cant lead a married life with Saran.Becos...becoz ours is a non-sexual relationship.Some kind of ..kind of "Romantic Friendship"
Me or him have never felt that feeling among us.Please try to understand.And please dont read my personal emails.And i love u so so much da..U mean so much to me.."


She wept and left the place.Vinodh sat there looking at the moon astoundingly.

I want first to thank you Logic for visiting my Blog.
I read this story and I liked it a lot because I think I believe in "romantic friendship". I know it can seem hard to accept for some people , but for me it is innocent and beautiful. Sometimes we can be married to the person we love, but not have with him the romantic side we need. Sometimes we are married and unhappy and we need a romantic loving companion to fill our heart with love.

Beautiful narration on a very delicate subject. Delicate because not all of us have the guts to accept out feelings so openly. Even today for a girl to tell her future life partner about her male best friend is very difficult and to continue with that friendship next to impossible. In such a scenario I admire the honesty that Sheela showed with her life partner. Hats off to her!!
