            <link>http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1219436</link>
            <description>hey there, it is me again, the green face.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It has been a year.  One day, I sent him a msg and told him that I miss him and how much he meant to me.  He didnt reply.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A month later he replied that he mixed up with a few old messages from me, didnt reply that msg of mine directly.  I didnt reply.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another month later he wrote and checked if im alright and pardon for the silence...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another month later only i read his message, i replied and update him about my life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;An hour later he replied, A day later i replied, another hour later he replied, then a day later i did... now im checking the inbox every minute, just like I USED TO do so before long silence.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We never broke up, he never wanted to, he never said that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But today, while waiting anxiously i found that I still miss him a lot, a lot.  I finally decided to stay put on currently relationship and forget this guy from now on.  I suppose it is not possible then.  The more we suppressed, the more we would want it, isnt it?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How about giving me a slap on my face. That shall do it. &lt;!--emo&amp;:(--&gt;&lt;img src='http://static.lowyat.net/style_emoticons/default/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /&gt;&lt;!--endemo--&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I decided not to fill up much of the personal details on this story, in order to keep this light and short. Shoot all u want, call out names, criticize, blame, ignore...  &lt;!--emo&amp;:(--&gt;&lt;img src='http://static.lowyat.net/style_emoticons/default/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /&gt;&lt;!--endemo--&gt;</description>

            <title>Gossip among gf &amp;amp; my best friends.</title>
            <link>http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1213513</link>
            <description>&lt;i&gt;Hi everyone, Here&amp;#39;s a story shared by an anonymous, Andrew, and would like to get everyone&amp;#39;s opinion.  He wont be responding, mostly i would do so on behalf of him, but he will be reading all of your opinions and sharing as well as advices. Thank you, guys&amp;#33;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Andrew &amp;amp; Betty = bf &amp;amp; gf = my friend and his gf&lt;br /&gt;Carl &amp;amp; Donna = couple of A&amp;#39;s friends&lt;br /&gt;Elaine.... A&amp;#39;s friends and friends&amp;#39; girl friends...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Only Andrew &amp;amp; Carl are guys, the rest are all girls.  &lt;br /&gt;It is about a gossip going on in between the girls while Betty is planning for a surprise Birthday party for Andrew, so she is dealing with a bunch of Andrew&amp;#39;s friends and friend&amp;#39;s friends.... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It has been many years that Betty feels threatened by the couple of Carl &amp;amp; Donna cos they have been &amp;#39;following&amp;#39; their (A&amp;amp;B)&amp;#39;s life :&lt;br /&gt;Throughout the many years of friendship, maybe Betty has been overly sensitive, but each time she and Andrew made some decisions, mths later they heard the same thing/similiar ideas from the couple of Carl and Donna as well.  Too bad, A&amp;amp;B a much richer couple while C&amp;amp;D are slightly less better than them, so Betty feels sorry for the couple at the same time...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, one day Betty had a chat with Elaine on msn, Betty had been trying to tell Elaine how much she felt thankful for being able to end up with Andrew being a great couple together as an example as compare with other couples, like rich, better job, travel trip, wedding plans, etc. However, Betty also shared gossip and bad mouth about the couple Carl &amp;amp; Donna In That Particular Gmail Chat....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, somehow with or without intention this chat has been exposed to Carl &amp;amp; Donna one day (it was a shared pc, so any reason it could be, not entirely Elaine to be blamed) &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Carl confronted to Andrew with printed version of the chat, and told Andrew that friendship shall never end, but we will never forgive your gf, etc.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Andrew is in a very difficult situation right now bcos he has a gf that is hated by his friends&amp;#39; circle and the secret chat has been slowly spread among other friends verbally so everyone has guarded up to keep a distance with Betty bcos of her behavior.  However, Andrew &amp;amp; Betty are a loving couple and they are involved into many activities together with this bunch of Andrew&amp;#39;s friends, so the future situation is gonna be difficult.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, Andrew&amp;#39;s questions are:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1) Should I(adrew) tell Betty about her behavior has been exposed so she needs not to pretend to like his friends in front of them anymore? She is somehow arrogant and never accept any advices from others, not even mine, what should i do?  She used to hate me to insult others, but now she is doing the exact thing to MY FRIEND.  But i have changed for her now.  What should i do to her? &lt;!--emo&amp;:(--&gt;&lt;img src='http://static.lowyat.net/style_emoticons/default/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /&gt;&lt;!--endemo--&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2) What should I do to my friends? I have personally aplogize to ALL of them for many times, so what now? I still feel very sad. More apologize? Or just ignore it? Since everyone knows that Im innocent and I cant do anything about it to Betty? Not that I will break up with her or something.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3) Carl &amp;amp; Donna will not come to my secret birthday party organized by Betty.  Im very upset about it.  How do i tell them that they should come FOR ME and ignore her? And without them attending, B would be upset too, cos Betty is still reacting like a great person in front of all of my friends without knowing her fake smile/behavior has been all exposed.... &lt;!--emo&amp;:(--&gt;&lt;img src='http://static.lowyat.net/style_emoticons/default/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /&gt;&lt;!--endemo--&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All advices are welcome  &lt;!--emo&amp;:respect:--&gt;&lt;img src='http://static.lowyat.net/style_emoticons/default/notworthy.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='notworthy.gif' /&gt;&lt;!--endemo--&gt;  &lt;!--emo&amp;:respect:--&gt;&lt;img src='http://static.lowyat.net/style_emoticons/default/notworthy.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='notworthy.gif' /&gt;&lt;!--endemo--&gt; THANK YOU &lt;!--emo&amp;:(--&gt;&lt;img src='http://static.lowyat.net/style_emoticons/default/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /&gt;&lt;!--endemo--&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Guys, i thank you of your time and advices for Andrew here - As i will come to LYN less, i will try to come back read/answer some of your questions, but if it is irrelevant I/Andrew might ignore them. Sorry i just dun ve tat much of time on hand right now ~&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once again, THANKS ~ Please help to keep this thread alive and get more advices for our poor guy Andrew&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;</description>

            <title>How to deal with MEN?</title>
            <link>http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1201646</link>
            <description>Hi guys&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wonder if any of you out there would be able to help for women to .. erm... tackle men?  is that a right word? &lt;!--emo&amp;:(--&gt;&lt;img src='http://static.lowyat.net/style_emoticons/default/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /&gt;&lt;!--endemo--&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are plenty of advices out there for younger boys and girls, and there are golden 5 rules for boys to send msg across to girls.... while I dont want to sound cheap to the man but how exactly do I send a msg to him without showing off too much affection to him and yet sending him a gentle note that Im ready to accept &amp;#39;his offer&amp;#39;? He is head to toes into me and willing to start off a new relationship with me and quite same from my side too.  He has been telling me each and everyday that he misses me, loves me, wants me etc... But all i have in reply is that &amp;#39;I miss you too&amp;#39;, or at most of the time I simply pass right thr and be on other subjects.... I kinda sense that he tells me less nowadays about those virtual love/kisses/muacks... so Im wondering if i ve been too cold to him?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yes u got it right, i could be needy and nerdy at times, tho im trying hard to press myself but somehow it conflicts within me while it is my personality to show off affection however it has scared some men away somehow.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Right now Im into a relationship with him, we are fairly new, we are brief, but we are special and we are getting deep into each other.  I try to work out the best way with him so Im here to ask for help, hopefully some of you experienced ladies or men out there could share some insights on &lt;u&gt;how to keep a man around&lt;/u&gt;? Stop being nerdy and needy and annoying? Im already trying my best.  He has claimed that women who dont ask too much Qs are rare, which is me.  But God knows Im just another territory animal who has non stop exploring, just that I ... erm.. have not &lt;!--emo&amp;:)--&gt;&lt;img src='http://static.lowyat.net/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /&gt;&lt;!--endemo--&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I generally handle men or relationship well, but not this time when he has every way far beyond better than me so Im kinda worrying for how to keep him longer in my life.  Im not young anymore and I believe i have a way to deal with men and it has brought me till here, just that this time I wish not to ruin it....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Any suggestions, opinions, sharings are much appreciated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;oh well. hope it make sense here &lt;!--emo&amp;:(--&gt;&lt;img src='http://static.lowyat.net/style_emoticons/default/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /&gt;&lt;!--endemo--&gt;</description>

            <title>ALL-In-One Clubbing experience</title>
            <link>http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1199777</link>
            <description>Clubbing experience in KL sucks after experienced it overseas.  Here&amp;#39;s one of my experience:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was trying to locate a good hangout place with my lover, a place with light meals available with soft music so that we can talk if we want, or just lay back for the music/talk show.  The outcome was very disappointing cos most places are with noisy dance floor, when we finally found something nice, it was for full course dinner set, even we were ready to go for it, we were given a table in the hallway from dinning room to kitchen, it is a place renovated from a banglo.  Even we were ready for everything they could offer, they dont open on the day we had to date, which falls on one of the weekday.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hereby I am starting this poll to find out what are the expectations of majority and so we can go from there.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;THANK YOU&amp;#33;  &lt;!--emo&amp;:lol:--&gt;&lt;img src='http://static.lowyat.net/style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='laugh.gif' /&gt;&lt;!--endemo--&gt;</description>

            <title>Any idea what True Love is?</title>
            <link>http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1197028</link>
            <description>Has anyone thought of WHAT do you expect from a dating/paktoh/relationship? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I guess not many has put a thorough thought on it especially when the majority here is in teenage/early 20s.  &lt;br /&gt;We tend to (1)Try It Out; and or (2)Let Tomorrow Worries It because at the same time we have some other things on the hot pan: exams, jobs, money, family, culture, etc.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some might fight back that &lt;u&gt;life is full of mystery so we learn through out the process. &lt;/u&gt; I wont say it is wrong, however my point is that,&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt; if you DO NOT PLAN NOW, you would &lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;jump into the crowd to contribute for the high rising figures of divorce as well as parents for problematic children in next decades.  Admit it, even when you manage beat everything to walk down the red carpet with him/her, you have at least 5% uncertainty of how things are gonna to be and you would mostly leave it to fate/God.  Thats only when you are some of those who are clear-minded, I can assure there are at least 7 out of 10 couples who dont have more than 50% of certainty about their future.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;During paktoh, at least these are supposed to be in plans/discussion in between both of you:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The level of compatibility, which depends A LOT on individual preferences, however there are few major big ones&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;age, height, weight, hotness level, job, financial stability of both&lt;br /&gt;=&amp;gt; external factor&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;spiritual connection, readiness for the relationship, readiness for further step, eg, marriage and or baby issue, IQ/EQ&lt;br /&gt;ability to handle upcoming life issues, even, do you guys have a mutual understanding on how to raise a kid together? He wants to share his fav batman/violence stuff to the kid without noticing it is violence while she wishes the kid to read more books?&lt;br /&gt;=&amp;gt; internal factor&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is not too much to think about these NOW when you are only paktoh-ing for few months. Believe me. Time flies and if you dont want to end a relationship risking anyone devastated, start thinking these now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;DONT GET ME WRONG - It is definitely not a must to marry your true love. I d never say that.  Put it this way, it is a luxury gift, it is a bonus in life if someone can have it for once, or more.  It is absolutely fine and normal if no.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I cant help stealing a great post in here to share with the younger generation about what it means for true love.  Long, but worth reading, trust me.  No summary needed - just read it.  If you cant make urself sit down and read this, how do u expect to experience LOVE in your life time?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;!--SPOILER BEGIN--&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;spoilertop&quot; onClick=&quot;openClose('4cb94a04d75f2dcac6edc2ce25410aa2')&quot; style=&quot;font-weight: bold&quot;&gt;&lt;u&gt;&amp;raquo; Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... &amp;laquo;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;spoilermain&quot; id=&quot;4cb94a04d75f2dcac6edc2ce25410aa2&quot; style=&quot;display:none&quot;&gt;&lt;!--SPOILER END--&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The best and most efficient way to kill a relationship is to believe and act upon the belief that it is the other person who holds the key to your mutual happiness. The man or woman who always says &amp;#39;You make me happy&amp;#39;, &amp;#39;I can&amp;#39;t live without you&amp;#39;, &amp;#39;You are my world&amp;#39; or &amp;#39;You are my heaven and earth&amp;#39;, may think these words celebrate an enduring love. If you believe these line of words is true and fulfilling, think twice again, fellas. In fact, the words are really saying, &amp;#39;I have nothing to offer and give more in this relationship&amp;#39;, &amp;#39;There is nothing i can bring to the table&amp;#39;, &amp;#39;Its all about you&amp;#39;. See the indirect impact from those lovely words? To all of you who keeps &amp;#39;blurting&amp;#39; or flirting with these words, i just want to let you know that you are actually placing all the ownership and responsibility for the success of the relationship squarely on the person&amp;#39;s shoulders.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The person who chooses the passive role would appear to be in the best possible position because she or he is required to do none of the work TO make it WORK If the relationship does succeeds in a way, it&amp;#39;s because Mr/Ms. Right walked into your life. If it fails, its because that no-good wo/man &amp;#39;done you wrong&amp;#39;. This is the conditional scenario : A relationship that only goes one way. Frankly speaking, from what i&amp;#39;ve seen in most CC&amp;#39;s case, most couples are actually practicing it without even realizing it at the first place. As a result, victims out there keep hearing Craig David - Don&amp;#39;t love you No more by their partners.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you&amp;#39;ve created a passive environment for yourself or you have allowed your partner to do so, the relationship you have created cannot last UNLESS the partner who is currently doing all the work is willing to keep on carrying the burden and claiming the PRIZE alone. You may not think this is the scenario you find yourself in. You may truly believe you have done so much, if not more, to make the relationship work. You know yourself better than the others and i possibly can. Sacrificial effort? More like stupidity and morons in the name of the love.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That&amp;#39;s why you guys here keep saying how much sacrificial effort = love, i do hope you guys understand, what you guys or victims out there understand that it is because of this thought, that conditional love exist in a love relationship. This is why i believe.. Aly and Aj hit song &amp;#39;Potential Break Up&amp;#39; always rings in my head when i see such fallacy. As well as Rihanna&amp;#39;s Take a Bow.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*********&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So what is unconditional love? Its a two way scenario in a love relationship. It only begins when two people come together, sharing sincere affection and a common goal : First, to honor yourself and the person who shares the relationship with you. You must learn to LOVE and RESPECT yourself before you can even begin to love or respect someone else. Your heart, mind and soul must be full before you are able to share the BOUNTY and reap the rewards that a mutually satisfying relationship can be.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Moreover, unconditional love puts no restriction on the relationship. It&amp;#39;s all about, honoring and respecting each other, regardless in what situation. Whether it be your wedding vows or the words are merely implied, the meaning is the same. : for the better or for worse, unconditional, no matter what.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To be honest, no one is strong all the time, am i right? Inside the biggest man beats the heart of the smallest boy and behind the life-giving warmth of the most enduring woman there can be a scared little girl. Everyone needs to be held and reassured and made to feel secure when the going gets tougher. To be able to reach out and offer that strength when it is needed- not just when you are ready to give- IS THE TRUE TEST OF UNCONDITIONAL LOVE. I believe, everyone needs to be forgiven for failing and for measuring up. True? Yes, even you. You want to forgive someone, first try to look inside yourself and forgive yourself FIRST before you even think about moving on. Simple as that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Alot of people misunderstood or mistook forgiveness. Forgiveness does not mean that you absolve yourself or your partner from the responsibility s/he must share to make things work. It means that you acknowledge imperfections, recognize weaknesses and learn from mistakes. It means that you take responsibilities for protecting yourself and your partner from the fallout so that the relationship remains strong.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are only human. Mistakes are norms of life. Even those who share and practice unconditional love can experience personal crises of confidence and self doubt. When that happens, the person who is in trouble often finds him/herself overwhelmed by the added stress and puts the relationship on HOLD. The other partner must be ready, willing and able to carry the load.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But how often you guys realize this kind of situation? Even i. When this does not happen, the relationship is left to manage on its own. Inevitably it dies. How is that so? A relationship doesn&amp;#39;t have a life on its own you see. It ONLY exists when two people agree to work together to nourish it keep it alive. What MUST and SHOULD happen, if a break up is to be averted, is that each partner must be ready willingly and able to make it work. Each partner must want to share a common goal with the other : To rediscover the MAGIC, SPARKS and FIRE, and learn the techniques and skills and mastery to keep the relationship alive. One partner cannot do this alone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The &amp;#39;good&amp;#39; news, even BREAK ups can happen to people who still love each other hell a lot and who still want to be together; who still want to make it work. How is this possible? The trouble starts when you do not work at making it work everyday. Everyone make mistakes and has selfish moments. Where they lead to trouble is when the selfishness takes over and the relationship is no longer about us but about me. The very day that you choose to satisfy your own needs at the expense of the relationship without telling your partner, you have begun to live a lie.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dishonesty and lies lead to guilty and resentment. Guilt and resentment lead to more lies and arguments. Most of the time, you keep continue to justify your dishonest, selfish actions by blaming your partner. So what are the common words used? &amp;#39;She/he don&amp;#39;t understand, doesn&amp;#39;t care, doesn&amp;#39;t love me anymore.&amp;#39; The next thing you know, the relationship is in deep shiit and you are heading for a break up. Then, you pay a visit to cupid corner with your emo baggage. The next thing you know, trolls and 4chan loyal soldiers invade.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When you BETRAY your partner, you violate their trust. Once you lost someone&amp;#39;s trust, of course by rule of thumb, its hard to earn back such trust. But however, you HAVE to let your partner know that you are willing to take responsibility for your actions. When it is your partner who had BETRAYED your trust, it is not up to you to make things right. Don&amp;#39;t be silly. Even though you are ready to forgive, you cannot do their work for them. If it takes two to put things back together, and it does, then it takes two to agree to pick up the pieces ad make a new start.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You want your relationship to work, you have to be willing to meet your partner halfway and no more. When a relationship is in trouble, both shares the blame. Simple as that. You have to be willing to give and take in equal measure and honor your partner by allowing him or her to do the same. You have to be ready to swallow your pride and ego, take ownership of the role you played in generating climate that allowed the relationship to wither and die and focus on long term, mutual goals.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, have you and your partner acquired the habit of negative bonding? Do you automatically search for opportunities to be right and the other person wrong? We do this in friendship as well don&amp;#39;t we? Do you enlist friends and family as allies or audience in endless reruns of the never-ending saga of blame? Is bickering your currency of communication? If so, it&amp;#39;s time to cash in the &amp;#39;blames&amp;#39; you&amp;#39;ve been hoarding and switch over to the currency of YES.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have words become weapons in your house? Does everyone endure the torture of silence or bear up under explosive wrath? Whether taunting, threatening or exact revenge in silence, using words as weapons is a form of abuse? It kills a relationship as effectively as a blow from a blunt instrument, the stab of a knife or a bullet from a gun. A relationship is meant to be in a comfort zone. Not a battle zone. If it does reach battle zone, then cease fire.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Does unconditional means surrender? Has it come to a point where one of you rules and the other obeys? If so, a mutual rewarding relationship relationship does not stand a chance in the long term. Absolute power corrupts in the long run and feeds a dangerous kind of love. If your relationship is in a form of master and slave, it is time to turn your back on pain and let freedom reign. You only have one God given chance to make a good impression, but when you open your heart, second chances can find a place to start. But how many of you are willing to open your heart? Few.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At all times, every second and minutes, you must remember one thing, IT TAKES TWO. Simply because you have feelings doesn&amp;#39;t mean your partner must have them too. Simple because you want to try again, doesn&amp;#39;t mean your partner must be ready, willing or able to work with you. If you ask for honest answers, you have to be ready and willing to face the truth when it comes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Love itself comes in many forms. You readers however must be ready to accept it for itself when it comes to you.&lt;!--SPOILER DIV--&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;!--SPOILER DIV--&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Im new in CC here and not knowing many ppl here yet, but if there is anyone who would like to share more on WHAT IS TRUE LOVE after reading the following passage, i would really like to him/her for further discussion on the understanding.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If there is anyone would like to know about my love story, the one and only true love till today, here you go:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;!--SPOILER BEGIN--&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;spoilertop&quot; onClick=&quot;openClose('a37e5e3c897418cf1d2933160d261f0b')&quot; style=&quot;font-weight: bold&quot;&gt;&lt;u&gt;&amp;raquo; Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... &amp;laquo;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;spoilermain&quot; id=&quot;a37e5e3c897418cf1d2933160d261f0b&quot; style=&quot;display:none&quot;&gt;&lt;!--SPOILER END--&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have a relationship with someone namely M in my life.  We were brief, he is my life mentor.  He showed me a lot of life principles and cracked my weakness by helping me become who I am today.  Im nobody to him but it is my honor to be his soulmate however I know clearly that Im no one in his life cos I can only understand him for 1%.  Although to him, Im the rare 1% whom he has waited for 30+ years.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was too brief, only about 2-3 weeks on msn 3-6hrs a day.  It is enough for us to keep this memory till death.  We talked about everything in the world, even a trip north pole and the black hole and dimensional love.  We are still in touch in the sense that we get to know about each other news thr facebook/mutual friends/blogs... but we are not talking anymore privately, bcos we chose a different life path, he wants a family, but I dont.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Im considering to meet him again when we both reach 50/60s where life essentials are laying low, in a little garden with a dog, just the two of us till we apart.  Yes I have a dream, it is merely to keep my life going, it is not a must to me for having it come true in my life. So, i believe it is unconditional love.  Maybe it is one way, I cant be very sure. But I have faith it is not.  He loves me, just not in way that many can understand.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*phew* Still another 20yrs to go - anyone would like to accompany me while I wait? lolz&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;!--SPOILER DIV--&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;!--SPOILER DIV--&gt;</description>
