Cowboy Party (Friends vs Friends)

A few weeks have gone by in the fall semester at Trinity University, and just as much as the students are getting ready for their first midterms, they are also finding time to go out and party. Last time I shared the differences between the upperclassmen and freshman in the social arena, but last weekend something strange and different happened between two groups of good friends.

After the football game on Saturday, word spread once again that there was a party at &#* %&*#, but this time it was a Cowboy Party. The freshman were a little more comfortable this time, and wandered around with a plan rather than without a clue. Amongst the small groups of people dancing and playing games, there were two groups of good friends that seemed to be in similar conflicts with one another. The first group of friends, lets call them Forrest and Bubba, had conflicting views on whether telling Forrests crush the truth about his feelings towards her was beneficial or not. Bubba thought it would help and decided to tell her, but Forrest got angry and thought Bubba had ruined everything. However, we will never know the outcome. The other group of friends had a similar conflict, but instead of Bubba telling the girl about Forrests feelings, he told her about his own feelings towards her. There are two ways the second groups conflict could have ended, but sure enough, it ended the bad way.

Although this explanation of these two groups of friends and their conflicts is fairly vague, I think it is fair to say that I have a vague memory of the events that occurred that night.
