Yeh wala kuch zyada hi dil se nikla hai...

I was just talking with my friend today about friendship codes? No gender specific. Be it a bro-code or girl-code.  In a friendship, if we are setting some ground rules or a code, are we obliged to follow it or we should do what we want? Even though, I follow what I feel is right, I do follow a code and be hell serious about it. For me, Codes are important.  

Controversial point hai toh vivad mat kar dena ab. I will talk about the most basic and infamous code in friendship.

'Never date or pursue your friend's ex.'

In a friendship, this is the bare minimum you can expect from your friend. Voh alag baat hai ki codes are a joke, nowadays. I have had instances where I liked a guy but my friend liked him as well so I backed off. Kuch kahenge why didn't your friend back off? That's secondary right now. 100 baat ki ek baat- I won't date my friend's ex crush as well only possible, if it's mutual and my friend is okay with it.

Still, I hear girls going behind their friends scratch that best friend's back and dating their ex who was toxic for the girl. The girl who came to you and ranted about her boyfriend's ill-treatment towards her is the very guy you fall for and date. Matlab pyaar se toh vishwas hat hi gaya, baaki kashr dost ne puri kar di. Kaha gyi voh dosti yaari?! Meine tere bande ko jiju ki nazar se dekhungi! And of course, my cute and handsome male readers, I didn't forget about you. Agar ladkiya naagin hai toh ladke bhi saap se kam nahi hai.

Based on author's life.

Ladkiyon se zyada toh ladke BRO CODE ki mala CHANT karte rehte hai. Brother from another mother jaise dost ki hi ex se taaka bheedhate hai. If you like your friend's girl, then tell him before he starts dating. Worst case scenario, your friendship ends. Best case scenario, the girl is out for equation. Bhaichara on Top. But are we going to do that? Nope, Nada, Not at all.

Do you backstabbers (if any reading) love the thrill to pursue the forbidden fruit(the ex)? The thrill, zeal, to win overpowers everything inside you or you genuinely love her/him? I understand love is the most important thing in life n all but remember one thing. If the ex can pursue you without letting the friend know, he can do the same to you, my friend. In the gen of new dating standards, it's easier for backstabbers to blend in the crowd but go around promising codes if you don't have the guts to abide by it.

That's all.
