Love

Love

Sometimes, i wonder why people want to fall in love. Sure, coming from a great relationship, it's great support and the feeling is amazing. But there's always so much pain in the process. Even when things go well, it's inevitable that once in a while there will be slip-ups, or misunderstandings.

i find that people are willing to go through this personality transformation just to please their partner. even i am guilty of it. maybe become a little more dependent, a little more emotional. but what i find truly amazing is how some women (and men) are willing to turn themselves inside out just to be the person their partner wants them to be.

seriously, from talking to friends, reading blogs, the amount of abuse people are willing to take just to risk a relationship is amazing. i've seen emotional abuse, masses of jealousy suppressed, trying to be someone you are not, trying to be older than you really are... why? why are people always ready to change into someone they are not?

and it gets worse. what happens when you don't even get to the stage of having a relationship? you are just stuck in the transitional stage, willing the other person to like you, even when bold hints are given that the interest isn't there. is that annoying persistence or true commitment? it's quite hard to tell. i guess you have to be in the situation before you can make such a judgement.

oh well. enough over-analyzing. have to get back to work. yay! going to fadz's house for Hari Raya! can't wait to taste his mum's cooking! and i get to catch up with the girls. cool! can't wait for the weekend!
