When my friend Cathy sent me a text saying she didn't think we could be friends anymore, I felt awful. We were close friends who saw each other both in and out of the office.
But as we were a two-person team, after lots of lunch breaks and late nights in the office, I realized our differences complemented (互补) each other. She was the person I could count on for sound advice.
And in the way life often is, when we both left the company, our friendship changed somehow. I noticed the difference, but chalked it up to both of us being too busy. After all, some friendships fade.
So when Cathy called me out suggesting "we were good partners in the office, Mary, but maybe we aren't a good fit outside of it", I was shocked, and then ashamed. Because she was right, I had stopped being a real friend throughout the year.
I had two choices: go with what Cathy suggested or try to save our friendship. So I put my pride in my pocket and apologized.
I started texting every week or so, about conversation topics like book recommendations, the computer game she was playing, and writing festivals we were thinking of attending. I initiated group outings. She met me halfway by being receptive to my invitations, and finally, we went out for one-on-one dinners.
Real friendships are hard work. You've got to make time to meet, keep in touch with texting, and remember little things like birthdays.
A. A big quarrel broke out between us.
B. I realized that I wasn't ready to see it end.
C. We accepted the fact that the friendship was over.
D. I sent her websites links to events she would find interesting.
E. We went from texting daily to only seeing each other in groups.
F. When we first met in the office, I thought we were quite different.
G. Only in this way can you keep your friendships from fading away.
