you know, wounds are such a strange thing. you can get along fine - day in, day out - just as long as you don't scratch the wound. if you pick at the surface, you are opening yourself up to an enormous amount of pain. you want to cry, you just want to hide away and cry. but you are afraid that you will never stop, so you don't dare to start. you keep it all hidden, under the new-forming scab and go on like normal.
no, that's not my topic for today. just felt like getting that off my chest.
today i'm going around men-bashing again. :-) no, not all men in general so you guys don't have to run for cover. the cannon is not aimed at you....... this time. ha ha!
men are a strange lot, and i am sure all of you will beg to differ. still, i get pretty strange members of the male species. maybe it's just me. maybe it's the 'men are from mars, women are from venus' thing. let me share these mystifying creatures with you:
he goes to a holiday resort with business associates, knowing that exactly one week later he will be visiting the exact same place with his wife to celebrate her birthday. go figure!
he knows that he cannot tolerate milky and cheesy food and spaghetti carbonara ranks as his top repulsion. still, he ordered them for lunch and then refused to eat it on account of it containing too much cheese and milk. go figure!
he can spend hours talking to you and is very concerned about your mental wellbeing...but doesn't bother to enquire about how you are coping when he knows you are trying to keep your head above the water. go figure!
he will readily agree to meet up for catching up on the latest.....but never ever bothers to make the call first. go figure!
he says he love you.......and then disappeared without a trace. go figure!
he says you shouldn't be so reliant on mother's cooking now that she is getting older......but he complains when you don't come back for dinner. go figure!
he says we should be spending more time doing revision with the kids......and then he spends the night reading magazine. go figure!
he gets very chummy with you.....and then suddenly ignores you. who says guys don't have pms. go figure!
he only remembers about your weekly friday night dinner dates when his complacency and security are being threatened. go figure!
he declares that a place is boring and not worth going for holiday before he even knows squat about the place. go figure!
when a guy has made up his mind about something, you can just save your breath. no elephant or typhoon will make that pea-size thing budge.
on days like this, you really believe that you can live without them. who needs men!

dear sengkor: huh? you didn't read meh? he, he, he, he, he and he. they all did! btw, are you feeling better? :-) a little smile for you.
i know it's going to be trouble when i wrote this piece, esp with my predominantly male readers. but as i said, it's not aimed at you guys, so don't feel threatened. i noticed that the first three comments are pretty defensive. commentor no. 1 turned the direction of the cannon, no. 2 dismissed it as sexist & aimless and commentor no. 3 hinted on my handling of emotions. i realise nobody actually examined the actions of the characters in my story. hmmmmmmm.....things to think about. i better hide before more fire comes my way :-) *ducking out of sight*
amen to that!! LOL!!
at last! a supporter. it was beginning to feel a little lonely, fighting that battle all by myself *twiddling fingers*
oi! we're not so bad lah!
Your last sentence; "who needs men?"
Yes, I support you fully.
--from your friendly neighborhood grocery store owner that supply your vibrator's batteries.
yup, once they have made up their minds, that's it. Like how I only ended up with only 2 pcs of the decorative glass pieces. :(
Aiyoo... Joking ajelah...
dear wuching: *hug* no, guys are not too bad. just senseless at times, hahahahahahhaha.
dear cocka: sorry, cannot 'pong charn' your shop. i use rechargeable ones. lol.
dear king's wife: and also how i ended up with a book on one valentine's day and a vase (without the flower) on another. and these were on the initial courting period *hug in comfort together*
dear ian: i know. i'm not taking it to heart :-) *grins*
Someone has an MCP at home. LOL. ;)
dear titoki: haiyoh, not one. i've got sooooooo many MCPs in my life. sigh! a little tired and frustrated with handling them.
