A Guy's Dilemma - Infatuation, Relationship, Girls and Beyond


The following conversation took place during a rendezvous mission between two rogue agents.

47: "I think it'd be nice if we have some companionship, someone to share our thoughts and stories with"

H: "True...but then again, a girl who's around our age is most probably looking for a relationship with marriage in her mind"

47: "Yeah, most probably"

H: "But with a girl who's younger, it would probably be difficult to have a real connection"

47: "Haih, true also"

hey 47, from your writing, i'd reckon that you're probably in the same age bracket as me (25-30?). thing is, i think some guys in this age bracket are also looking with marriage in their head from the very beginning. this would then put unnecessary pressure on the relationship, then again, this would apply to both sexes lah, depending on who's looking for marriage since the very beginning.

i'm not exactly looking either, but at times i do wish that there's a person whom i can share my thoughts with and won't think i'm nuts. i have my ever-obliging girlfriends of course tapi tak samalah.

excerpts from a conversation i had with a friend;

me: i reckon what i would want is a guy who wants me...

her: how about you? you can't want a guy who wants you, you have to want him too.

me: ..and doesn't need me. i wasn't finished talking. i want a guy who wants me but doesn't need me. i think for a start, that's the only honest way.

her: oh ok, that makes sense then. but then nurul, over time, you'll have to rely on each other for some things.

me: over time, yes. of course, once things develop, you would fall into a role, and certain things then are expected from you. but not in the beginning. but anyways, i'm not exactly looking now, so maybe this is just for future reference.

sekian lah transkrip perbualan saya dengan rakan saya =D

well i guess not everyone (girls who are younger than u)but maybe majority have that as in marriage in their mind. i think most independent ladies want to have a guy that can share their thoughts, opinions, love and sorrow. It's nice to know that there is a person to be there to share certain moments of their life.

A desperate conversation with a hot girl beside of University Library last 2 years.

Single Cutie: Hey ah fa! Find me a guy man!

Mr Ah Fa: What!!? You are still single?

Single Cutie: Arrghh, in my age, who wants me?

Mr Ah Fa: Uhm, you are gorgeous, independent, and doesn't looks like single. I can't help you with this.

Single Cutie: Ok Ah Fa, if you find one, please oh please introduce him to me. If you can, please find me a guy with a face like Ako Mustafa.

Mr Ah Fa: WTF?

And the conversation on this desperation ends with bursts of laughter.

the older i get, the more i think the idea of getting married is more troublesom than fulfilling (my parents
ll probably have a heart attack if they hear this!). But then again, I believe in true love as well. I've seen the hardest headed people crumble like cookies when they finally meet the 'right' one. As much as i'd like to say that my 'searching for true love' period is over,I really can't say until I finally kick the bucket.
So mr.47 - the right one will come when the right time has come. In the mean time I'd advice you to sit back, relax and just enjoy the show....

47 said...

Gosh! Guys, thanks for coming over and sharing your thoughts with me on this issue :)

Nurulazreenazlan:

Excellent observation! Yes, I belong in the said age bracket, we're going through pretty much the same thing methinks.

"some guys in this age bracket are also looking with marriage in their head from the very beginning. this would then put unnecessary pressure on the relationship"

"I have my ever-obliging girlfriends of course tapi tak samalah"

These statements are very true!


Lisa:

Yes. It is nice to have someone to share your thoughts with :)


Mr Ah Fa:
---------
Email me her phone number!


Shaz of Shaz:

Thanks for your advice, I'll try my very best to just sit back and enjoy the show. I'll be patient for now but I gotta tell you this urge to find the right one is like an itch..it lingers.


Erm:

Unfortunately love doesn't come easily for me. But good for you mate!


Taichee:

I'm ok, not too young and not too old. Just nice ;)


Thinker Bell:

Hmmm..Interesting idea.

nurulazreenazlan said...

you mean, you have ever-obliging girlfriends too?

hehe.

i can't help but smile when i read erm's comment. to use the term 'sampai mati', erm must be young. only a young person is capable of using words like 'forever' and 'until i die'.

love doesn't always translate into a working relationship, instead, it doesn't always translate into a relationship at all. so if one person quits, looking at the larger picture, maybe it's for the best, because at the end of the day, if you really love and care for someone, you'd want them to be happy.

accepting that it's probably not you who's gonna make them happy is really bitter, but since love is really that deep feeling you feel which would propel you to want the very best for your loved one, that feeling of them being happy (although not by you) should be able to sustain you.

it's bittersweet, but hey, that's love as i see it.

;)

Love is for pussies.

XD

TBH, relationships are only worth something when you know that at the end of the day, he/she is the one person you want to go back to.

I told a friend of mine a couple of days ago that I wasted so much time when I was younger with guys who promised "to stick around forever". Forever translated from anywhere from 1 month to 3 years. So I prefer being on my own with my own time and do things that I want to do.

Less drama, more fun.

yup 24 years and still living ; P.my definition of sampai mati would translate to my determination for love.i don't mind if the other person quit.i would always find another one.i dont need weak ones anyway.

my love life never the same with those in the drama...things i hate is "quit for the best"(drama excuse)...2 many times i saw someone using this quote to find replacement/being innocent...hehehe i use this once....quit is quit...if u ever want to quit...tell your concrete reason so that the relationship end so that the person would never have hope for "replay" and move on.no problemo.true..less drama is the way for me and problems are meant to be solve.in order to solve something...problems must be crystal clear.

to date..i know someone who have been through 13 relationship....giler hebat...a class on her own.

I don't know if there was sarcasm in that last bit erm, but I believe it should be the quality and not the quantity of the relationship(s) that matters.

A relationship to me is kinda like a calculated risk and I think most people who don't do well in such endeavors are just bad at the proverbial math that comes with getting into a relationship.

If a relationship lasts for a respectably long time, it reflects favorably onto the person(s) involved. And I find that enviable.

I guess that's the ultimate love. Selfless love where the only thing that matters is that the person you love is happy even though you're not part of the equation.

But to me that's very bitter...not bittersweet, just plain ole bitter. Yep I guess I'm that selfish :P


The Boinq:

"love is for pussies" Hahaha! It is true though, the less drama there is, the better!


Erm:

I gotta agree with Mr.Halimunan. Quality over quantity.


Halimunan:

Dude, I too find that enviable!
