Like Faye always used to tell me, " No matter what, friends always come before guys."
Magic Boy always says, " Bros before hoes."
What motivation is there to choose your friends over that one person who may ( or not.. ) be the love of your life? I'm not trying to say that you should just totally ignore or ditch your friends. All I'm saying is that, though friends are important, there comes a time in your life where ( I think anyways.. ) you'll end up choosing that special someone over buddies. It's only makes sense.
Think about it logically lah.
Friends, though friends, are only friends.
Even after everything, that's all they'll ever be. They'll want to look for their own special persons as well. You're there for each other, support, bond, spend time but you'll never have that initimate relationship that can only come from your significant other(s).
Significant others are, boyfriends/girlfriends and potential lovers/husbands/wives.
Wouldn't you than choose them over friends? I mean, friends are important but 20 - 30 years down the road, after each of you are busy with your own lives, who are you going to be spending the rest of your life with? Your friends? or your husband?
The answer is plain obvious. Of course, it's not cool to ditch your besties ALL THE TIME for your boyfriend and cancel on them just because your boyfriend found out he was free.
So, maybe next time you would think twice about getting upset if they chose their boyfriend over you, neh? :)
