WIDE AWAKE
A friend is planning to uninstall WhatsApp, as she feels that she spends too much time on it. Cold turkey or should she ease into it? No answer because the decision is hers to make.
I have had my share of overexposure as well on social media.. verbal diarrhoea.. too much information.. oversharing of my life events.. NO MORE. Will remain private for now onwards.
Yesterday night there was a piece of gossip. Somebody (let's call him HS) will be married this May. Apparently he once had a crush on somebody formerly from the same high school (she is AF). Well AF played hard-to-get.. to the point that HS got the message (perception, rather) that she is uninterested. Now that he is getting married in May she suddenly has a lot to say about his unsuitable choice of bride. Is there something that she can do now? Hijack the wedding plans perhaps?
My advice to her. Be a better woman and let go. You had your chance but did not pursue it. Like I once had multiple chances but chose Mr Ex to marry. (No rhyme or reason for it, just youth + dumb bravado + fiery burning hot love, so I will just resign myself to it & accept it as fate: it was meant to happen the way it was supposed to happen).
AF is reasonably good looking, has her own business, reasonably young & quite marriageable.. and I do believe she is not short of suitors. In fact I think S has a crush on her. They may have something going on & maybe he would like something more with her. Do I mind? The funny thing is I don't really mind. He can have her if he wants & I will wish both of them the best. I can hold my own thank you very much & I can probably play for someone better.
No wonder she goes off to Perth.. and is planning to climb Mt Kinabalu.. and is doing some behaviour indicative of a broken heart/ post-break up stages of grief. Whatever it is my girl, get through it. Be a great sport and unhand him. Find someone wonderful for yourself because this one was not meant to be. But then again, if she does the Julia Roberts My Best Friend's Wedding thingie with him. I won't judge her either. May the best woman win. In my case if S wants her & she wants him, I will let her win. I will emerge unscathed by all these minor petty incidences.
This is probably my conscious lucid mind doing the rational evaluation of the whole thing. I am a wonderful person & I will survive with my confidence + beauty + grace intact.
