Hypothetically speaking of course...

I have this friend who believes that they have found out the true me. They believe that belief my coarse vulgar exterior there is a caring sensitive person who I hide from most people. However, I have this other friend whom this exterior comes into its own so to speak when I am around. This is not to say that our friendship is not deeper than that but that is how we relate especially around other people. Now my first friend sees that my second friend causes this layer to be emphasised therefore they have decided to shoot down my second friend. What they seem to not realise is that while an onion has layers and as you peel away the layers you get closer to the core at no point is one layer more truly the onion than another even if the other is deeper.

Anyway its kinda irritating that two people that I have philia towards don't get along at all in any way shape or form.

Don't know why I'm posting this but c'est la vie. It now belongs to the world.

ps anyone who knows/can puzzle out who my friends are please do not mention them by name if you choose to comment. Anonymity is our watchword.
