Random Musing

Why want a "more-than-just-friend" friend, otherwise known as boyfriend or girlfriend, when you always prefer to spend time with your "just-friend" friends instead of boyfriend/girlfriend?


Why want a "special one" when you do not care how he/she feels, do not care what he/she is concerned with?


Why tie up someone and waste his/her prime period when you don't commit him/her high in your priority list?


Is it some kind of status thing, or is it just for sex? (the former is just sad, the later plain sick)


I don't know. It baffles me.


Call me old fashion, boring, or whatever else you like, but isn't having the "special one" about someone to care for and being cared by? Having someone to bring the best out of you and vice versa? Someone to complete you and brighten the world? Someone to share all the ups and downs in life? The good old love and being loved, and that 'they live happily ever after'?


If being with the "special one" is just constant heartaches, with no way out of the vicious cycle even when you have tried your best to make it work but your efforts not reciprocated, isn't it time to stop and ponder if this is really the "special one"?


Do you really want to spend the rest of your life with this person and 'live happily ever after'?


If not, isn't it time to cut loose while you are still in your prime, move on, and actually be happy?


It's like having a bad tooth, you can choose to leave it and prolong the relatively lesser pain (until it gets out of control, that is), or you can choose to have it extracted bearing that short period of sharper pain, and move on to the healing process.


I believe in choices. Happiness is a choice.
