So in friendship, do we need to understand each other? The answer, according to the experience of him and her, the two best friends who have been "scouting" each other for more than ten years are: "No, just understand, only about 65%, leaving behind only 35% of the fog in love".
He and her have known each other since grade 9. At that time, he was a roundabout, she was a mongon. He was a published author, she was a published author. He talks about sports, she just laughed. One was like the shining and noisy summer sun, the other was like a weak battery, or the newspaper Low Battery but refused to charge. But they can still play together until now, simply because... no one is so free that they understand what the other person is thinking.
Once, she confessed that she was secretly in love with his IT job at the company. He immediately transformed into a Korean film screenwriter, planning short-term and long-term goals, giving cute gifts, even drafting lines expressing his love near and far from her. It took so much effort, but in the end, the IT guy fell in love with his accounting girlfriend. She cried like rain, blaming him for "rabbling". He smiled: "I think about it carefully, but the person is not as calculating as the sky. And in her, sometimes she has to be creative, she has to know how to listen intuitively to herself.
She felt a failure because she did not do what she thought, which was suitable for her personality. But he was determined to follow him to draw a line that he could not understand 99%.
She once said: "I appreciate you not only because you understand me but because you give me the right... no need to explain everything". However, when "boiling water burns", she often closes her eyes and listens to him.
This afternoon, sitting drinking in the rain, he told her: "My wife and I have been playing together for so many years, it's strange, also because there are still many things to discover in each other. The more you are, the more you should keep some secrets so that you have a reason to continue playing, Mrs. replied.
She nodded, secretly thinking that just the "unknownness" was enough to create the attraction, curiosity and respect needed for the friendship to last over time. It helps both avoid unnecessary speculations, invisible impositions, and allows each person to develop freely without being bound by the image that the other person has painted. Because the most beautiful friendship is when two souls are in harmony but still maintain their unique and distinct features.
