Relationship
caution: LOOOOOOOOOG Post.
My friends like to ask me about my relationship, on how me and my bf get along together, about how I treat him, about how he treat me, about how i look at this relationship ..etc etc..
Close friends of mine, they see me as a very obedient gf. They say i always stick with bf, always put him as no.1, seldom hang out with them. Yes, i am.
Being obedient, is just that, i dont normally reject him. I want him to be happy. I know whatever he choose to do, he sure do consider my feelings, then only he will make the decision.
No, I am not lazy to make decision. Hope YOU understand.
I like to stick with bf, I like to make him as my first priority (besides family), i seldom hang out with my friends unless some occasions like birthday. And I dont see anything wrong with that.
Off coz, they think it’s something wrong. Some say, “You are losing yourself, you lose your freedom.”
Did I?
What about I say, I love being with him, I dont like to reject him, I like to do things together with him.
I still have freedom, a lot of them. My bf is not a control freak. He never stop me from meeting new friends, going out with guys, or hang out till late with my jimuis. I knew it very well. Trust is crucial in any relationships.
I think you see the point now, I sayang him.
Just like how people like to say, “He very sayang her gf, he gave her everything, he company her all the time, he pick her up and down, he never reject her, he is just so good to his gf. I’m so envy”
How come some of them did not say the same thing to me? I mean, i m not angry la. They rather say, “You are losing yourself” instead of say “You are so nice to your bf.”
Why people only see “Yor, her bf so sayang her.” Why no one say “His gf so sayang him.”
I’ll be happier if you really see it. If you dont, never mind. I dont need people to judge whether I am happy or not.
My best friend say “I dont know if i can do the same to my future bf or not”
My friend, “Just be yourself, dont force yourself to do something which you are not happy to do, there is no exact formula to develop and maintain a relationship.”
What if …
my bf and I did not work out at the end … what do i do?
I never foresee things will turn out that way… Why do i need to think about something that is not happening?
I never know? Yea, you never know it too.
Or
How do you know if he is the best? You got no one to compare …
Hmm… What about - “How do you know the next one or future one will be the best? What if they are worst?”
One of my friend also labelled me as “Never accept other’s opinion.”
haha, it’s ok. I am a person like that. I listen, but i am not necessarily accept. I got my own opinion too. Takan i need to listen to other people to tell me what I shud do in my OWN relationships.
I often accept people’s opinion on other things, like food, movies, fashion, my designs, my writings, my hairstyle…
I must stand strong for my own. Afterall, this is my own thing.
Or
How do you handle argue/fight?
Oh, i seldom fight with bf. I dun like to argue with bf actually. Will try my best not to fight over unnecessary matters. If i can accept his opinion, i dont need to argue.
Ok, then HOW do you handle argue/fight?? You haven answer la wei…
Oh.. ok ok.. I mean, i will keep quiet at first. No point to heat up the matters and maximize the hurt. When things past, then only we can talk caml-y. If things are my fault, i got no point to argue, right? If it’s his fault, he also got no point to fight, right? So, why argue?
Argue over different opinion? Hmm… Sure got lo, but wont end up argue-ing la.
I really scare people angry with me, i wont be happy also, especially people who close to me.
Or
Do you feel bore being with him?
Why would I feel bore with someone I love? :)
Dont get me wrong in any part of my write up, I am happy with what i am having now. I am not unhappy with anyone also.
As you can see, the whole thing is about how I look things, How i feel. Not comparing with anyone or anything.
What’s my point of writing this?
Haha, do i need one?
Because i wanna write.
So, now you know me better. I m kinda stubborn, coz i am a taurus. Ho ho ho.
Phew, what a long post. Wondering how many people would be reading till the end.
p/s: Dont worry peeps, my bf and I are good.

Very agree with you. Sometimes ppl ard us just see things on the surface. The statement like, “You are like under controlled by yr bf” or so or so if we girls, give prirority to our another halves.
Anyway, all the best to you with yr another halves

At the end of the day, it’s between your heart and his. If your friends are really your friends, they will accept you no matter what. Else, don’t waste your time with them. :-)

Cely, this entry is just good! I love it.
I spend quite a lot of time with Adrian and I have friends complaining to me and some way or rather I lost a couple of them down the road.
It’s sad to see it happened but it’s also disappointing to know that they do not understand.
Sometimes they made me choose, you know, like either me or him which put me in a very difficult situation. On one hand, it’s someone I’ve spent years going to school and sharing part of my life with, and on the other, is someone I love deeply and was hoping to spend the rest of my life with.
In the end I made my choice, just like you did. I chose to spend time with my bf because I enjoy every moment with him.
P/S: It’s good to see you both at The Curve the other day! :)

Wah steady ah! Wah on ah! Something like that ah! Hong Kiat is the happiest man in the world.

what i think is that besides the relationship the both guy and girl is having they must also maintain the other friendship they had before the both were together … you wouldnt want your friends to feel bad rite, when u were not in the paktor relationship, you would always find your friends and call them, but then when u are in a relationship u just ditch them … then when the relatioship tapau edi u start calling them back, buu by then they also dnwan to choi u liao la …
its just not right la… thats my 2 cent opinion only la ..

Ohhh….so “Gam Dong”…that fellow HK better appreciate this…kekeke:P
Cely..if he bully u, just let me know & i’ll give HK a kick & pain @ his ass…hahahaha:)

mars: heheh. thanks
g.g.long: everyone can finish reading.. but u cant? gip u another chance, READ!
viper: no, not all guys want an obedient gf, i suppose. hehe
kevin: hahaha, talk about kahwin.. hmm… not so soon ok? :) will belanja u! hahaha…
christinesy: haha, friend that make u choose, i bet they were all girls. I understand. i’ve been thru.. and it’s over now. They just accept the fact that i still choose my bf over them.
caker: Do you proud of us? ahaha… not only he is the happiest man geh.. (btw, where got that kua jeong), i am happy woman also.
earl: u had the exact same opinion as my friend, who is a guy fren. My gal frens, yes they do complain, but they understand i always give priority to my bf, they wont give me harsh time. I m not saying i did not maintain my friendship with them, I am not totally ignore them, i still go out with them. Just that, not that often like what we used to have. Bet u still dun understand, just like my friend. Maybe u understand, but u still think it’s not right. :)
If ur gf always hang out with her frens, and u hang out with urs, just like the olden time, then it makes nothing diff. My bf in my heart had higher place, that’s make him diff from my friends.
If ur gf has the same treatment like how u treat ur frens, why do u need her as ur gf? that makes ur relationship with her no special.
that’s my 2cent opinion also. Hope u see how i see things.
Oh, u might think the same as my fren too, that i dun accept ur opinion… again? ahhaha…. coz i had diff opinion with u.
JtuneD: U think HK with bully me? hahahah
shadowfox: yes, same cely from kakilang.
If i dun care, they will say me stubborn, dun accept ppl’s opinion. Hahaha, anyway… i m stubborn also.. that’s why din care.

The world is full of double standards…
(It is so unfair! Like u said, if a guy is good to the gf then he is wonderful. If a girl is good to her bf, she is “losing herself”)
Can’t change how society thinks though.
So, as long as you (and your bf) are happy then it’s enough already, right?
:)
(Oh, btw I have tagged you !)

wow, so sweet! glad to see you find your true love. love cannot calculate from give and pay (quote from somewhere else, hehe). But i don’t think you took long time to finish the writting, since it is naturally frm your heart, and no imagination and creation needed (like what we writting essay during secondary school time, it so hard to write, man!!) by the way, you didn’t lost your friends, see…so many comments here!!
cely
on September 27th, 2006
bambino: Must communicate well, your partner sure understand you. Dont worry. Good luck. And thanks :p
J: Yup, exactly. Cant change how they think. BUt i am here to tell my friends how i think, and hope they understand. Haha..
Oopps, kena tagged.
Ahmoi: Heheh, thanks. Yes, it din take me quite long to write this. You so understand me.

So many thoughts running through my head after reading your post & the comments… I’m no expert in maintaining friendships & I’m definitely no cupid. But I believe with all my heart that friendships & courtships are beautiful things, and we all need to rediscover that JOY of having people in our lives.
cely
on September 27th, 2006
Joash: I dun mean to reply late. Paiseh…
U are so optimistic.. that’s good. U believe u treat people good, u will get things in return. what thoughts runnig thru ur head now? We can share :)
Reon

Wah, finally write this up to make announcement woh, how can I not support Cely here. :P
Yeah lah, I know your thinking lah. It’s glad to know you enjoy every second with your bf. I’m sure your friends will feel happy for you too. :D
Just that I hope you can get a balance in your relationships (family, love, friends) loh, ok? Maybe you’re studborn, but you’re still my friend. :)
tihtahpah

i agree with Reon, it’s all about balance. To make another man as your 1st priority is rather naive. The whole article although heartwarming, is rather naive unfortunately in the reality world. To be a smart woman nowadays, you can’t be this naive but to always protect yourself. You are your 1st priority.
cely
on September 29th, 2006
reon: hahaha… i got my balance. Just that u might think i dun.
tihtahpah: ur measurement of balance might not be the same as mine. Dont worry.. i m not too naive till i will put myself in danger… hahaha… things that i can give priority to him, i will… if cant.. off coz i will not… i may not be very smart.. but i dun think i m stupid. :)
tihtahpah
on September 29th, 2006
i think it’s rather silly to be stubborn about these kinda things. Its naivety and ignorance. relationships not about giving priority to him….frankly i think it’s quite backward thinking -not something i think women of today appreciate anymore.
cely
on September 29th, 2006
tihtahpah: u got your own definition on how woman shud be nowdays. I will not disagree. u dun have to agree with me for what i m thinking. i m just doing what i think i wanna do. it might sound so super silly to u, u really dun have to agree.
giving him priority does not mean “‘oh-mi-god-my-bf-is-my-life”", there are a lot of choice when it comes to certain situation. and at certain situtation, i will choose my bf. that’s all.
friends who know me, they say i m tough and independent. I m certainly not the woman u think “‘oh-mi-god-my-bf-is-my-life”"… :) try to be my fren, and u will find it out.
i m glad that u are proud of what u wanna be.

the question of giving your bf a priority should not have come up at all. whatever choices you make is entirely yours. people would diss your choices all the time, so long as you think you made the right ones, then so be it. so many girlfriends of mine ‘lose’ themselves and great friendships unknowingly.
cely

tihtahpah: I m sorry to hear that. But i guess we just gotto move on. Time change, things change, environment change. I might not close with my friends as how we used to be, but we are still friends, still hang out together.

hmmmmm….
I believe is better to have a balance time in whatever relationship.
The definition of bf and friend is different but has the same consequence.
