Month: December 2006

A friend was telling me this the other day:

What do I need to sleep around?
A lot of friends tell me that I’ve been single for too long, therefore need some action (in bed) before I wrinkle up into a bitter prune.
It’s not to say that I have not had offers, but I dare not succumb to the temptation of the flesh, for fear of being expectant after the one night stand or fling. You know, I am an emotional person.

I could only say:

Well, if you can detach your emotions from your flings prior to the deed, then you’re definitely prepared to enjoy the ride. How do you do that? I don’t know.
Some say sex is just sex. Do it, get over it, don’t expect anything right after.
I’m sure the boys have better ideas than I do, because I’m the one who’s going to be a wrinkly bitter prune soon to expire!

—————————–
Let’s ask uncle xes or fanky on this but they’re going to say, “Just do it, don’t think so much!”

I was trying on some clothes in one of the stores with no proper fitting rooms with doors, it had those curtain types. I hate those, sometimes, because they aren’t secure. There are those with gaps between the curtains and the partitions, allowing passerbys a peek in, if you’re not careful. They should add velcro straps or those curtain ropes and hook things, whatever you call them.
As I was just to pull up a dress, the curtain flew open and a girl barged in. Surprised to see me inside, she immediately blurted out, “OH, SORRY!”
Then she stood there for about 5 seconds or more, staring at me, as if reluctant to get out.
I stood there, doing the classic embarrassed pose, clutching the dress to my bare chest, waiting for the girl to bugger off.
I bet she wanted to see my bare chest!

Hmmm yes, she was quite flat. ;P
The thing is, I don’t get it. If you apologise automatically so immediate after a booboo, why not leave immediately, too?

You know how everyone dislikes being second best most of the time? How is being the 1st runner-up in a beauty pageant or competition a good think when the prizes are far more inferior than the winner’s?
Someone asked a friend of mine whether it was fair for a girl to have issues being second choice. Guys (most of them!) are always wooing several girls at one go, although they would have some sort of preference in mind – like having favourites. So, technically, it’s like saying, “Hmm, A is first choice. If i can’t get her, I’ll try for B. If not, f*ck, I guess I’ll have to settle for C.”
Would B accept him, after knowing that she was second choice all the while? Or it doesn’t matter? I’ve seen situations where a 2nd choice gets together with a guy because 1st choice got a boyfriend and broke the guy’s heart. Later when 1st choice was single again, the guy dumped 2nd choice to try again with 1st choice. So, 2nd choice will always be 2nd best, no matter what?
On the other hand, it seems to be generally accepted that girls can have a variety of men to choose from, provided they are her suitors. Why is she allowed to choose, while letting the men attempt to win her heart? All is fair in love, you say?
Hmm.
I am, however, tempted to test the theory out – the one about being 2nd best. I know someone who got together with a girl who wasn’t his first choice altogether – hehehehe because I wasn’t interested in him. But do I really want to be a bitch and break them up, just to test my powers? That would be sad, because I am not interested in him at all – let the couple be, I’m sure he’s tuned himself to be very much in love with her.
Unless I’m feeling really lonely one dark and stormy night ……..
