Time will heal this

'Time will heal this' I heard this in my childhood and someday before I saw a real example of this. Though it made me shocked because the time spent was too less and wound was too deep but it healed quickly.

This happen with a friend of mine. We were good friends at office and usually talk to each other on chat at office. It was some years back that we were talking on chat and I realised that something is not good. I reached to her desk and talk to her for few minutes. She was talking about her boyfriend with whom she was now facing emotional difficulties as he was not able to talk to his parent about their relationship. In less than a minute I was able to notice that tears has arrived in her eyes and first tear drop is about to fall. If a girl goes teary for a boy like this then he is the love of her life and she can do anything for. This was my thought at that time and yes of course I was also right. At that time I console her and stopped that drop of tear to leave her eye by playing silly, though I got few punches (friendly) while doing that.

They both wanted to get marries but her boyfriend failed to talk to his parents due to some problems. She gave him enough time (years in fact) but he was not able to discuss that with his parents. Ultimately her family got her engaged to someone else. This engagement happen few years after that teary incident and they were in relationship just few day before this engagement.

When I heard of this engagement, the first thought that came to my mind was 'oooopss, it’s not him. God knows how will she forget him.' Now after just few months of her engagement I saw a photo of her on one the IM with her fiancée with the status written as 'missing you'. When I read that status firstly I got surprised because she healed from the wound of breakup and moved on very soon and then it gave me pleasure because time taught her to move on.

But this incident made me think twice about the teary incident that happened years ago. If she is fully with her fiancée now then  is it all the girls who forget their love of life very soon or was it just one exception.
