"I started something I couldn't finish
And if we go down,
We go down together
Best friends means
Well best friends means.."
Well best friends means.."
When you're in a relationship, whether its romantic or platonic, sometimes remembering that there is no 'I' in team is a really hard thing to do.
When its something that is effecting you both emotionally, physically and mentally, its so hard to take a step back and pull yourself out of the picture to focus on how the other's coping and dealing with it and how you might have to adjust to make it a little bit easier for the other.
It's so easy to focus on what you need and how you need to do it without taking into account just how it effects the people you love, most of the time its so rediculously unintentional that when its pointed out its a shock that's usually followed with a really yuck feeling of guilt.
But then there are other times i guess, when doing what you need and want without taking into consideration how it effects others is okay. I mean this in the sense of how moving interstate and overseas will effect your friends. And family i suppose. Families are there to provide love and support in all circumstances and situations whether they agree with them or not. It means being there with the same love and support when your world comes tumbling down and a helping hand and a warm cuddle when you rebuild it. And friends, true friends, are the family you chose and are there to do the same. And i guess truely being part of a family means taking yourself and all selfishness out of the equation for the benefit and happiness of another member.
You do what you have to do to make it okay. And at the end of the day, if we go down - we go down together.
