Like before, we did everything together. We were inseparable.

One of the inevitable events in any young man's life is the development of an interest in young girls. For my best friend and me it happened at nearly the same time and, unfortunately, it manifested itself with the same girl. At the time we were both working for the same employer and the owner of the business had a daughter who was our age and was quite attractive. At first neither of us commented on our individual interest but, in time, it became obvious that we both were and, like we did everything, we began discussing the issue. We spent hours discussing our interests. It may seem odd to others but our friendship was intense and secure and I can honestly state that either of us would have been happy for the other if the young lady involved should choose either one of us.

High school graduation brought a dramatic change. I left town to attend college and, for the first time since we were seven years old, my friend and me were separated.

Unfortunately, I was never afforded the opportunity to address the issue maturely. A few weeks later I received a telephone call that my best friend and lifelong confidant had been killed in an automobile accident. I was completely devastated. I was totally consumed not only by the sadness of having lost him but also by my guilt for having allowed my stubbornness to have not allowed me to resolve the issue of the girlfriend. My anger at myself resulted in a deep depression that took me months to resolve but the regret is something that has never been resolved. Some relationships are sacred and, for a time, I had forgotten their importance. Unfortunately, circumstances made this short time last a lifetime. I have resolved to never allow it to happen….....
