Firstly...
Happy Mother's Day to all mothers!!
Somehow when I say the word 'mother' it just comes off wrong hahaha!
Something I felt like sharing. Recently I was given the cold shoulder out of the blue by someone, I don't really know why...
There's this guy I'm really starting to like. It's not Mike, or bachelor 1, but another guy I started chatting with some time ago. And speaking of Mike, for some reason we haven't talked in a long while... neither of us really showed the initiative to chat... so over time I guess the silent gap just got larger, and it would be awkward to start texting now.
Anyway... back to this guy. Let's call him Adrian. A bit of description for you..
Similar age, similar height and weight. as me, very cute face, he belongs to the handsome-cute category. He sent me a pic of him in a suit... so bergaya!! *heart melts*
He first sent me a message on Jack'd. I replied, we progressed to Whatsapp but never really chatted frequently because either of us was always busy at a certain time.
So.... then I think it was last weekend, we started hitting it off, talked a whole lot. We exchanged Facebook. Chat chat chat, then a few days after that I got the vibe that he wasn't keen on chatting anymore. I asked if he was free to chat one night, and he just said 'Meeting right now'. And that was at 11.33pm. He always has "meetings", sometimes I wonder if it's just an excuse to avoid me.
Oh well....
This is why I updated my J-boy facebook status the other day:
Why is it that the guys I don't like keep texting and trying, but the guys I like don't text back?
Haha it's alright.
I admit I've given the same treatment to other guys as well. I guess you can't force compatibility and chemistry. And there's that saying 'Tepuk sebelah tangan tidak akan berbunyi' or something like that.... so the search goes on ;)
P.S. I realized fluent English has become such an important criteria for me. The moment a guy starts replying in clearly broken-English or directly translated Chinese style English I just get so turned off. Let me give you some examples:
1. But is look cool, mind to intro
2. Thx you oh, where r u stay
3. Oo.. great to heard. how do u spend ur saturday?
OK I know I'm a bitch :P
Haiyah, you no come Sunway eat thing meh? Here got nice thing like steam-poat, ayam pen-ate, cha kue teow and many more... Then aaar, can go that lion shopping mall walk walk... alot of thing to see one... can go there play water also...
ReplyDeleteHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
LOL =.=
DeleteI don't know what to say to that, really..... :P
aiyah~ you come sunway then gimme a telephone lah, I go meet up you then I bring you alound... we go eat lice same same...
DeleteWTF... hahahahahahaha
hahaha I know Sunway better than you think :P
Deleteyou will have to know not everyone was exposed to an english speaking environment or background since young and therefore the lack of proficiency in that field..
ReplyDeletesome grew up in rural ares where educational system are lacking or scarce so you cant really help it.. they are not fortunate in that sense, but as a malaysian as long as you can communicate well dont care la bahasa rojak ke apa as long as you can understand cukup la.
yes you can have your own preference saying you like guys with fluent english and all but always remember that youre lucky to be where you are now ok..
so stop being such a bitch...
i hope that you learn something today..
im being a bitch for writing this! :)
hahaha bitch to bitch, I receive it with open arms :P
DeleteI totally understand that not everyone grew up in an English speaking background. Heck I went to a Chinese school and most of my primary and high school friends are the Chinese speaking type.
It's just that speaking solely on attraction terms, I wouldn't see myself dating someone who doesn't speak English as a first language.. because I intend to speak English with my prospective partner because my Chinese is kind of down the drain and it would be difficult for me to express myself... What can I say? I just can't connect on an emotional level with someone who speaks primarily in Chinese for the simple reason of not being able to understand each other well enough.
:)
im being a bitch cos i am one myself.. but just thought of expressing nia.. personal preference kan?! *hugs* muacks!
DeleteHaha. Same goes for me! I just can't stand broken English at all.
ReplyDeleteI guess that's how it works. We want the guys who don't want us most of the time. Maybe he's not the one. You never know. He could have a disturbing deep dark secret!
hahaha I would like to think that there are some horrible things about him. That would make it easier to move on :P
DeleteI used to be exactly like you, I can't stand people speaking in broken English. But then again I speak Mandarin and Malay fluently as well, so I don't really mind anymore.
ReplyDeletehaha the difference is, for me, I don't speak fluently in Mandarin or Malay. So i'm pretty much stuck with the English speaking hunks ;P
DeleteWe're on the same boat! BItches unite :P! Bad English = kicks of the boat xD
ReplyDeleteBooyah! Let's go have some tea and pie hahaha (not sure what that means, lol)
DeleteIt's hi-tea, my dear. Hahaha... LONG LIVE THE QUEEN'S ENGLISH!
DeleteI make the pies, you make the teas and we're all ready for a tea party :P
Deletelong time i didn't hi-tea at starhill:(
Deletegot lotsa teas at there,can rambang mata when choosing
maybe he deals with international co, so meeting follow different timezone..hahaha =P
ReplyDeleteawwwwwww, no luck with mike??too bad
haha maybe, all i know is he's always busy with work... >.<
DeleteAnd things have just been quiet with Mike.. I actually liked having him as a friend... maybe he's found someone else to hang out with :/
I used to know this guy who always chat and always tell me he's busy too and after so quite a few experiences, I now can officially tell you that if a guy is interested in you, he will come find you back after he's done with his works either by texting or calling. And if a guy doesn't seem to be interested in coming out to meet you after the first meet up, it means he's not into you after seeing you.
ReplyDeleteWe just have to close the chapter and move on. Turn the page and you'll find a more exciting chapter awaits you. Hehehe... don't rush.
yeah i've moved on already! :)
Deleteif you see my Jack'd profile you will know that i'm a greater bitch than you.hahahaha *flips hair*
ReplyDeletewhy i didn't managed to find you in Jack'd?
lol
DeleteI think those guys are really trying their very best.
ReplyDeleteI got to admit, that I am sort of particular about the "language" factor as well.
:)
yeah i know that they are trying.. but still.... :P
Deletei so wanna u to top me !
ReplyDeletehuh i don't get it.. i'm not top also =.=
DeleteSome boys just send lousy texts :) Not very great at writing I guess. Better to meet up face to face.
ReplyDeletehmm perhaps u have a point there.. i should at least give them a chance and see how the interaction goes in person right.. :)
