More than just friends

After a tough battle between my heart and mind, I decided to let her go.

After all, a friend was all that she was. How could I screw my marriage for her? Amidst daily fights over strange reasons, my wife had finally expressed her true horror: You can never prove to me that Anna and you are not more than "just friends"!

Since as long as i can remember, Anna had been a crucial part of my life. We had been together through celebrations and tears.. through wins and losses.. through link-ups and break-ups...

We had survived a long distance friendship for years.

We would talk for a million hours. As much about our original ideas as about our silliest experiences. And about politics and religions; about philosophies and cartoons.

We had been mentors and consultants for each other. She had always prevented me from losing my faith in destiny and my belief in myself.

But I lost her.

And it's only now that I have realized her actual worth.

We were actually more than just friends.

We were best friends.
