GOOD LORD!!!!!

conversations

this is over sms, on an evening i was tired but i had nothing better to do between the time i fall asleep and the time when still lying half awake - which was the beginning of a great deal of uh, excitement.

me: 木头。
x: i'm smarter than that...
me: -smile- maybe. perhaps i'm the one!
x: takes time sometimes...
me: O o
wah piang another one. how come tonight i keep getting blind-sided one??
x: ?? can meet you for kopi tomorrow if you want. i'm in jb in the morning
me: i've stuff on the entire of tomorrow... very hard, really. i was thus pushing for tonight, as that was the only window i may have caught you... it's alright la, dealt with the money issue already.*

10 minutes later, in which my conversation with another friend went like this as accurately as i remember, in bold:

me: eh. i think this is the wrong time to fall in love. what do you think?
him: ok lah ...blah blah blah... falling in love is alright.
me: [said something]
him: [something something] i'm not flirting with you. really.
me: ? ^^'
har? er. what??
me: wah i must be getting stupid. what's going on??

and it suddenly dawns on me that -

me: OMG are you thinking i'm asking you over for something dubious??? it is NOT THE CASE! >_<
x: dun be ridiculous... i'm not.... insulted
me: you're not insulted? what does that mean? over what?? -cry-
k i shall.. keep my hands off the phone and... go sleep. nobody's making any sense tonight T_T
x: i'm not like that... i feel insulted!!!! LOL


at this point i was curled up in foetal position, sucking my thumb furiously wondering how on earth the conversation went that way. well. not really, but you get the idea of the kind of trauma i go through sometimes.


* the money issue is not because i was short on money, but because i was to head to malaysia for work and i hadn't made the trip down to the money changer's yet. that friend is a regular visitor of malaysia, and i thought i might exchange some money with him instead.

power struggles

i don't do power struggles. not anymore, because it tires me out fighting with someone i'm supposed to love or in this case, was supposed to come to love.

i'm sorry it never did go past "like" for you, but that's okay. we don't know what we hadn't had. there is no loss when there was no gain.

in all sincerity, i am sorry it was you. thank you for the sweet flowers. thank you, for the time we hung out at my place, for the tau huay and porridge that you brought. i enjoyed and looked forward to them.

the hanging out, i mean.


though... i still will have to say that there is a difference between being concerned and being adamantly controlling about how another person should live. nobody likes being told what to do, in that tone that borders on ordering. there's simply no way an older, more matured person would behave that way to me*.

plus don't you agree that i'm a big girl and i know how to take care of myself?


well. whatever it is, it's passed now and i know that i don't like having to spend the rest of my life with someone who behaves like my father instead of a boyfriend/husband, and i know that's what you were aiming to be.


thank you, once again, for the good times. i will remember them.



* postscript: i take that back. i'd just met someone who IS older than i am and likes to bossily tell me that i eat too little. now, though, it's been toned down to nagging at me to say that i should eat more. thankfully.

perfume

and yes, i wear perfume to bed. it's called "envy me" - gucci.

I is The Priss - Who knew?

Deliberate Brutal Love Dreamer (DBLD)


Mature. Responsible. Aristocratic. Excuse me. The Priss.

Prisses are the smartest of all female types. You're highly perceptive, and confident in your judgements. You'd take brutal honesty over superficiality any time--your friends always know where they stand with you. You're completely unfake. Don't tell me that's not a word. You're also excellent at redirecting internal negative energy.

These facts indicate people are often intimidated by you. They also fall for you, hard. You have a distant, composed allure that many find irresistible. If only more of them lived up to your standards.

You were probably the last among your friends to have sex. And the first to pretend that you're pregnant. LOL. Though you're inclined to use sex as weapon, at least it's not as one of mass destruction. You're choosier than most about your partners. A supportive relationship is what you're really after. Whether you know it or not, you need something steady & long-term. And soothing.


Your exact female opposite:

Always avoid: The Playboy (RGSM), The Loverboy (RGLM)

Consider: The Manchild (RBLD)

relationship?

someone told me during a conversation today that she wants a relationship. i didn't understand it.

right now, in the quiet of my bedroom, i begin to question: what about a relationship is that attractive to her, that she is wanting one?

i mean, anyone who has been through a relationship understands that hey people hit the ground after the honeymoon wears off, much like how balloons hit the ground once the helium wears off. surely she understands that?

or am i biased, or unfeeling to even have such queries in my mind?


why relationship? is it the...

1) sex?
2) the companionship?
3) idea that there is a "friend" you can trust in and love on?

forgive me if i'm on the sceptical side here but we do know that, respectively: -
1) it's never seven inches.
2) there's no real companionship until you live together - by then you'd probably want to kick the other person out.
3) and yeaaah the things you don't know.


so... seriously now. what is it about a relationship? i don't understand it at this point in time probably because i know what i'm searching for... and what i'm looking for is NOT more trouble.

friendship and companionship yes, but a relationship - haha

i'm not so sure.


anyhoos. it's someone else who's looking for a relationship, not me - perhaps she is wiser than i am? she might very well be, for all i know! for now however, i'm letting it all wash over me, not pursuing, not resisting.

and it's great. until i find that wisdom my friend seems to have, i'm going to remain right here where i am in terms of status: single.

choices and the hitchhiker

sometimes choices have to be made and followed. sometimes there are trials attached, sometimes you get an "advance to Go" card and other times, well, you get a dud and life goes on.

i won't even begin to talk about how life is supposed to be like a box of chocolates - sometimes they're all coconut.

i think life is more like taking a bus: you know where you're headed and you've your fare ready. you just have to wait, because you'll know it when you see it, then you'll hop on. like everybody else.

others may find that life is more like taking a taxi - faster, probably easier and definitely less crowded than "what the rest has to go through" - unless, of course, you're travelling with a whole bunch of people who are "headed the same way", so to speak.

then again there's nothing stopping the supposed driver from taking you for a joyride and ripping you off... unless you've got your hands on his balls and by that time it'll be illegal.


so... what now? the bus or the taxi? well, i don't know. it looks like a good day out, i think i'll take a walk.

people

The more people I meet, the more I understand that yes I am fine and yes, I am loved. Definitely yes: I am beautiful both inside and out, as far as my ideals go.

I like myself.
