Life is too short to hate people or harm people. One must try his best to maintain...or keep the relation. And even if GOODBYE is on cards...and if there is no other way but to move on...in different directions...do it in a decent manner. Sit together...speak to each other...share your views, opinions...and then say Good Bye.
