I once had a good friend in my undergraduate study. We were in the same college but had different majors. I majored in ID, and she majored in animation. Actually we are still friends but not as close as before. And at first I was attracted by her talent. She looks like an artist and is talented in drawing so we became good friends. We have many special memories together like creative short videos together and went to some special restaurants hidden in alleys in nanjing and we also celebrated the new year together for about half a year. And then the COVID happened and we have not been back to school for half a year. and during that time we have some remote collaboration like did some projects for some competition and also made some motion graphics for money and during the collaboration I felt not comfortable due to the fact that sometimes I felt that sometimes she was very selfish and inconsiderate. So I didn’t contact her anymore. After covid we went back to school and we didn’t play together and before the graduation ceremony she sent me a msg and asked me whether I want to hang out with her, and had a dinner together and I agreed so finally we had an opportunity to talk to each other but none of us talked about what happened in the past. We just talked about future. We just walked along the river. Actually I don’t know how to handle such situation, because it’s not like an intimacy relationship. I don’t want to tell her you are not right, and you don’t do in this way.
