Wow.. I think I was bad enuff.. To see my gf once, for a couple of hrs only in 3-4 wks. Never knew that there are pple who are worse off.. I'm really impressed, and touched by ur determination, and sincerity towards that ger. Furthermore I am listening to a Chinese song, 'dan ni gu dan ni hui xiang qi shui' and believe me, my eyes actually well up, after hearing ur story, and also thinking abt my own situation. Maybe the song, ur story, and the quiet ambience, and my tots, created the senerio, but I'm really impressed. Makes me feel that there is hope in the midst of darkness... We're on the same boat, just that I'm slightly better.Originally posted by hanabishi:I think I can beat that for lameness...
There's this boy X, who's secretly been in love with a girl for 5 and a half years.
The 1st year, he doesn't do anything, except go around in a daze and be really stoned.
2nd year, she leaves to study overseas. X is totally unprepared for this. Somehow he gets on with it.
Year 3, the dream starts to fade away, he hasn't had word of her for almost 2 years.
Middle year 4, he gets to see her at a class gathering. They talk quite a bit. A few weeks down the road, he wins a pair of movie-tickets. He knows he will never forgive himself if he does not ask her out. Sweating over it for 3 days, he manages to pick up the phone and contact her. They go for the movie. His 1st date ever, X is barely coherent. Miraculously, this does not piss her off. She flies off.
Middle year 5, gets to see her again. But only for an hour or so. She flies off again.
Present day, this time she asks him out via email. He is finally stable enough to have a 1/2 decent conversation with her. She can't stay long though, hardly past an hour. She flies off, - yes again.
So there he is, X, a boy desperately lonely for a girl he can only see for (about) an hour a year.
How's that for lameness. (Esp since there's a whole year to go...)
Thank you very much.Originally posted by Bear:Wow.. I think I was bad enuff.. To see my gf once, for a couple of hrs only in 3-4 wks. Never knew that there are pple who are worse off..

Call me 'a weak man' if u want, but feel that guys haf feelings too. We do shed tears for pple and for ourselves.
I agree wif u... To hear of pple who think likewise as u.. Just one in 10 or even 20. I think this just one person will do a lot more than others can. Just someone to reassured u. Many of my friends told me to gif it up, and I think I almost gif it up totally. After know u ard, I think I felt that I'm not the only stupid guy ard here. there are others out there who are on the same boat. All the best for u and the girl of r dreams.Originally posted by hanabishi:Thank you very much.
At times I feel weak, pathetic and stupid walking this path of mine. But to hear that there are others who would think otherwise is truly heartening.
I guess the lesson for the day is that you've got to be grateful for whatever opportunities that come your way. Whether its every 3-4 weeks or once a year. The important thing is that we've all been given a fair shot at a dream of our own, and the only thing we have to do in return is try our best.
I hope you and your lady can find happiness together.

wow! i really din noe guys go for security in relationships tooz. c-rious. i mean, i can tell my gal pal that she needa make her guy feel more secure, esp when she's such a pretty and sweet young lady, but when i'm in a relationship myself, it's totally blind to me lo. can't c it. tt's y i prefer guys who are more expressive. =) but somehow, some guys just can't seem to be as expressive to their gfs, as they are to their friends, be they guy or gal friends. =( haizzz...so difficult to find expressive guys. hate it when i'm the one who has to guess how he feels....=( shudda be the other way around rite? hahaha no la, just joking. shud be a balance, and is everything discuss, and out in the open, and no guessing needed rite? i mean, at least tt's how i view a relationship lo......communication most basic quality.=) comm breakdown, dun bother oredi.Originally posted by Bear:Thanx Tired. though it's hard to maintain, becoz u dun feel sucure all the time..

And all the best to u too Hanabishi... Finally, I see wat love can do to a person. I really admire u... ur love for ur lady...
Strange that you should say that. I've always thought my other would be the one person I could communicate openly with, - let down all my defenses.Originally posted by t|rEd:wow! i really din noe guys go for security in relationships tooz. c-rious. i mean, i can tell my gal pal that she needa make her guy feel more secure, esp when she's such a pretty and sweet young lady, but when i'm in a relationship myself, it's totally blind to me lo. can't c it. tt's y i prefer guys who are more expressive. =) but somehow, some guys just can't seem to be as expressive to their gfs, as they are to their friends, be they guy or gal friends. =( haizzz...so difficult to find expressive guys. hate it when i'm the one who has to guess how he feels....=( shudda be the other way around rite? hahaha no la, just joking. shud be a balance, and is everything discuss, and out in the open, and no guessing needed rite? i mean, at least tt's how i view a relationship lo......communication most basic quality.=) comm breakdown, dun bother oredi.
Actually guys do express themselves to their gfs. But U can it's not so openly like wat u said. Most of the time it's by actions, rather than thru' words. Maybe, he can juz offer u wif some of ur fav snacks. It's also his way of telling u that he loves u. Many will just take it as he gets something for me to eat. But toi him, he knows that it's ur fav food. and thus he gets it for u.Originally posted by t|rEd:wow! i really din noe guys go for security in relationships tooz. c-rious. i mean, i can tell my gal pal that she needa make her guy feel more secure, esp when she's such a pretty and sweet young lady, but when i'm in a relationship myself, it's totally blind to me lo. can't c it. tt's y i prefer guys who are more expressive. =) but somehow, some guys just can't seem to be as expressive to their gfs, as they are to their friends, be they guy or gal friends. =( haizzz...so difficult to find expressive guys. hate it when i'm the one who has to guess how he feels....=( shudda be the other way around rite? hahaha no la, just joking. shud be a balance, and is everything discuss, and out in the open, and no guessing needed rite? i mean, at least tt's how i view a relationship lo......communication most basic quality.=) comm breakdown, dun bother oredi.

Bear : Thanks for the support ! How's it going on for you ?
I hope so. But I don't think so. Actually I haven't got a single reply to any of the emails I sent after she left. Oh well, deja vu.Originally posted by Bear:thankz for ur concern hanabishi..
