Is he?

When a guy doesn’t SMS or call you back, then surely the signs are clear — he’s not that interested anymore. Disappointing, I know. 🙁 However, what’s funny about life is that when God closes a door, he opens up a window.

Rugby Player vs. Tennis Player

For women, are the men you attract classified as rugby or tennis players? For men, for the sake of simplistic generalization, which one are you? My girlfriends and I discussed this topic over dinner last weekend. “Why is it that you’d attract all the rugby players, while I get the boring goody-two-shoes tennis players?” my […]

Who asks who out?

A friend of mine asked me why women are afraid to ask men out. “If you’re interested, why not do it?” After the hustle and bustle of overtime work, I managed to think further to his question. The truth is, I’ve actually forgotten when I liked a guy so much that I consciously asked him […]

I miss you.

It’s amazing how you can bring the worst in me, and the best in me. When we first started, I wasn’t really supposed to fall for you. It was nice, and fun and I was attracted to you. But I did. Maybe it was your words of bullshit that turned the tables. Which girl wouldn’t […]

“So what are you doing this Friday?” he asked. “Am still deciding whether or not I’ll be going to this party,” I replied. “We’ll see.” “Well, if you’re not going to the party,” he continued. “Maybe I can take you out for drinks… and maybe dinner.” “Oh cool,” I answered. “I’m going to be fed!” (in […]

Saying goodbye to 2008 — and hello to 2009!

2008 passed by so fast — where has it gone?  In a way, it seems that 2008 was the transitional year.  It was the year when I deepened my expertise in project and relationship management, in addition to actually making a mark in the institution I worked for. It was also the year of many […]

Work and Play

Boyfriend has contacted me today after over a week’s haiatus. Smart boy, he contacted me while at the office — when I knew I couldn’t really make a scene. He said that in the alps, he’s been staying at the low-class hotels where there’s no Internet and hence, couldn’t write. “I thought you were dead,” […]

The Slow Disappear

I think I’m too rational for my own good — too logical, even-minded and fair. I had previously mentioned that men like drama. Sure, they get all pissed off and claim that their girl is psycho, but soon enough, you see them running after her once again as if she’s a crack addiction they just […]
