"Anyway, I am with him, u r not allowed to msg or call him"
A few days ago, I got a first hand experience of the ugly side of humans. Or more specifically, humans of the female species. What turned out to be a very harmless prank (or so I thought) , became a huge sms slug fest! I shall not dwell into details, but the most compelling part was the above sentence - "Anyway, I am with him, u r not allowed to msg or call him".
Hmm... mind you, the opposition was an older female. I was kinda shocked to receive such a msg.. cos it brings back extremely unpleasant memories. But oh well, which begs the topic: would you restrict your other half from contacting a friend? Especially if that friend is of the opposite sex to your other half?
I have seen both extremes: I have friends who don't mind their current squeeze getting in touch with their exes (although sometimes it still makes them uncomfortable). On the other end of the spectrum, I have friends whose sweet "darlings" morph into the ugly green monster (where's ultraman when u need him).
So.. what kind am I? I don't deny that in the past, I used to be the ugly green monster. I was younger, more naive about relationships and insecure. I remember an occasion where my other half received a phone call at 1am. He hurriedly went to a corner, out of earshot. Not exactly the most reassuring action, yes? Needless to say, the following days were full of cold wars, sarcasm and arguments.
I guess I have since mellowed down. It also helps that I am more reassured now and have a better understanding of my other half. I'm not saying that I have absolute control over the reins to that monster, it still reeks it's ugly head once in a while. But at least now, I know how to handle it.
So.. be it u r male or female, trust is important in a relationship. :)
I shall sign off with the lyrics from SPACE - Female of the species. Dedicated to my friend, good luck!
A thousand thundering thrills await me
Facing insurmountable odds greatly
The female of the species is more deadlier than the male.
Shock shock horror horror, shock shock horror!
I'll shout myself hoarse for your supernatural force!
The female of the species is more deadlier than the male.
Oh, she deals in witchcraft and
One kiss and I'm zapped. Oh,
How can heaven hold a place for me
When a girl like you has cast her spell on me?
Oh, How can heaven hold a place for me
When a girl like you has cast her spell on me?
Frankenstein and Dracula have nothing on you
Jekyll and Hyde join the back of the queue
The female of the species is more deadlier than the male.
For she wants to conquer the world completely
But first she'll conquer me discreetly
The female of the species is more deadlier than the male.
Oh, she deals in witchcraft and
One kiss and I'm zapped. Oh,
How can heaven hold a place for me
When a girl like you has cast her spell on me?
Oh, How can heaven hold a place for me
When a girl like you has cast her spell on me?
Oh, How can heaven hold a place for me
When a girl like you has cast her spell on me?
Oh, How can heaven hold a place for me
When a girl like you has cast her spell on me?
