who u are...


so I was chatting with my sis in hk and we started talking about couples. me, of course being the younger sis, kept badgering my sis's new bf whom I deeply dislike for reasons I cannot pinpoint. I just dun like him. anyhoos, I had to remind steffie to distinguish between love and lust. u can't mix up the two. a girl also has to realize when the guy is worth going for. for instance, u need to like the guy however he is - personality/traits, etc(and vice versa of course)and u urself need to like the person u become when u are with that person. besides that last point, it is very important that the guy goes the extra mile to assure your family that he is the guy ur family should trust. he should want to spend time with ur family and (well at least for our family of wong daughters) most importantly, re-assure daddy. I think I have to remember this stuff and remind myself constantly too. just cuz I dun wanna make the same mistake of neglecting my family when a new boy comes around. I guess this is a part of the learning process. all actions have consequences. if it turns out good, great! if not, u learn not to go down the same road again. I just hope my sis does not get herself in too deep and try to step out and see things from the outside in.

  • I have never met your sister's new boyfriend. Commenting on your blog... it is easy for third parties to make judgmemt on whether the couple is right for each other. The judgment could be right or it could be wrong. Nonetheless, whether the couple is right for each other, in the end it should not matter. I think the key is that at this point in time they wanted to be together and have no regrets in making the decision. Love and lust normally come hand in hand. Is it really that important to seperate the two. I learnt that there can be no perfect boyfriend. Of course what you said is very idealistic and wouldn't it be nice, but at this moment I think all your sister needs is to enjoy the time they can spend together and you should be happy for her.

  • But don't you think she needs support more at the moment? :P I agree with you that you have to be happy who you become (ie to be able to be yourself) when you are with your partner.

  • Love is never a very logical thing. I've learned as much. We can try to be logical and think through the whole process. But what we desire, in the end, comes from the heart.

    At this time, I'm still not sure what I'm feeling is love or not. Clearly, I'm still in the infatuation stage of the relationship; where I'm blind to his faults and he seems larger than life in all aspects. Maybe, I'll eventually take off my blinds, and start to see him for who he really is. But like Penny said, there is no perfect boyfriend. If I can't accept him the way he is, there would be no reason to continue.

    As for what I've become... at one pt in time, I realized i've been neglecting my friends and family. I'm sure this is something I'll remedy soon. I just need time right now to figure out how significant this relationship will be.

    Until I figure these things out, I'm just going to try and enjoy my relationship best I could. :)
