THE IMPOSSIBLE FRIENDSHIP...

THE IMPOSSIBLE FRIENDSHIP... 
By Bernard Bujold-
When I was younger, dozens of times I made sentimental statements that were dismissed! It's always a bit sad to learn that the person we are attracted to doesn't have similar feelings of friendship towards us but, after a few rejections, we accept rejections more easily . But the opposite was also true, and sometimes a person would make a statement to me and I wasn't interested at all! 
At the end of the year 2020, with the lockdown and everything else, the situation presented itself again to me, and even though age made me lose some of my charm, I received friendly approaches from a person I was not at all interested in. The approach started simply but the intensity increased with the days and weeks. The problem was complicated by the fact that I had to speak professionally with this person on a regular basis. When the interested person started to offer me to watch his TV movies, I realized that I was in a troubled situation . 
I used the strong method and told the person that I was not interested in his private life but I was sad to have to be so brutal. The situation stopped immediately but an existential question remained in my mind: How can one elegantly reject friendship advances if you are not interested at all?
