there’s only 1 way 2 say 3 words 4 u

and does it really have to be on facebook???

no doubt that facebook is the one of the greatest media invention connecting people from long lost friends to strangers that would like to meet new friends. but I also felt that more and more people are ‘exploiting’ this great invention.

ever since the new facelift, quizzes are growing like mushrooms and many people are participating too. it has quizzes from ‘what is your iq & eq’ to ‘what wedding dress suits you best’. this guy friend of mine has recently taken the ‘what is your best age to get married’ quiz but at least he’s smart enough not to post the answer of that quiz (only smart people can be my friend ok hehe...) and guess what? his less-than-a-year girlfriend commented on that post asking ‘so when are we getting married then?’... after reading that comment, I was practically ‘rolling my eyes’.

few weeks later, that girlfriend of his written on his facebook wall saying ‘dear, go and take a look at rachel’s wedding photo. it’s so sweet… I wish ours will be that sweet too’. and he replied ‘I’m busy now, let’s do it next time.’ after reading that, I again ‘rolled my eyes’ with a sarcastic smile on my face.

just today, she superpoked him with ‘will you marry me?’ and he commented on the superpoke saying ‘haha… of course’ and then she replied ‘you must say I do’. this time after reading that, I feel nauseous. hello... come on lady, what do you expect your boyfriend to say? no? (again *roll eye*)

don’t get me wrong, I am totally so not jealous. just that I know this guy very well for more than 4 years and in fact we almost became an item. but we didn’t because we both want different things in life and we are grown up that know we are just not meant to be together.

of course you can get lovey dovey but can’t you just do it over a private conversation or at least sms? why does it have to be on the facebook? trying to show your affection to the whole world? or as what another friend of mine says they just want to share? I grow up being taught to respect others’ privacy but I have a question now. how do I respect others’ privacy when they share everything they own with the rest of the world?

maybe I am just too realistic but I think I’m a very romantic lover too (asks my ex-es, I’m sure they agree more than I do). but still, I will definitely not announce my love on the facebook and what more, pressuring my boyfriend regarding marriage over the facebook.

obviously, this guy is not my blog reader or else I would not dare to post this entry. if you feel annoyed by my babbling here then…. I don’t know, not that I really care…

anyway, this is just purely what I felt and you are more than welcome to disagree with me. but hey, I would really love to know what you guys think? enlighten me with your opinion…

or
3. About you being the romantic girl?

I think I know who u r talking about. I saw it from his facebook too. I personally think it's the age gap. Although she's sweet but I think she's too naive

I totally agree with what u said.
I think I will roll my eye too when I saw those "sweet" comment. :p
Actually, sometime when I saw my friend posting their kissing photo with bf/gf i feel weird as well, mayb I think this is private photo that should not share in public? haha...
