ALEXANDRIA ASCIOTI #11/13

"It was funny the way these people kept asking for it. Just latching onto you, no matter how you tried to brush them off, and almost telling you how they wanted it done"

This situation is very common among people. Often, there is a friendship that is not always wanted by both parties. Sometimes a person may not understand that the other does not wish to be friends because perhaps they have nothing in common. There are those who try too hard to create friendships that don't make sense. This is usually because someone may just like the idea of having a friend, as opposed to really looking inside the person's personality. Intimate relationships can also work like this if there is a lack of chemistry. It is necessary to go beyond the ideas of friendships and relationships to see the true colors. It is also important to walk away from them if there are not any positive results, as opposed to latching onto to something that will only hurt a person in the end. The picture below clearly shows that the two women are not happy. I chose this picture because I believe it could represent a dead-end friendship. They are not happy with each other and perhaps they should no longer hold onto the friendship.
