To King: Things I never thought I would have said..

There have been many arguements lately. Too many to count.. These had probably made both of us very upset and that further aggravate our current situation. This is particularly applicable to me, as I became more sensitive to even the little little things that happened. I had been thinking alot about our relationship too! I know part of the arguements had been my fault but I wouldnt say they were all my fault. I understand that you had been very tolerant with me and I agree that we have diverse point of views as well as different ways of doing things. Yet, with all these differences, we had come thus far. I'm really glad.. One very thing that I regret is not leaving a very positive impression of myself at the beginning of our relationship. Subsequently, you tend to relate what I say, what I do, to what we argued in the past. But I came to realised that even if I could turn back time, things wouldnt change much too. If we were to stand in a straight line, we could end up at the extreme ends, in terms of our thoughts and behaviour. Throughout these few years, I believe it was our compromise (probably most of yours) that bridged our gaps. I appreciate it alot. But once in a while, I would appreciate more if you can also look back and appreciate what I had done for you.
-
Our differences may had brought us many unhappy arguements. Nevertheless, it had also made me like you more. Maybe because you have the traits that I think I would never have.. I always look upon you as a well-mannered person, very self-motivated, very organised. You seem to know alot of things, directions, general knowledge that I am too ignorant to find out.. I like your family background, very organised family structure unlike mine.. These are also the reason why I slowly learn to depend on you.. Because of you, I start to see myself changing to the person I thought it was impossible for me to be. Being with you makes me feel comfortable. I never have to hide any of my feelings. I can tell you everything and never feel weird about it. I can be myself!! But I see it developing into one of our problems too.. Perhaps, it has never come across your mind the reason why I always try to ask you questions you deem to be stupid. They were the things you would never mention to me, things I would love to hear directly from you, not through many wild guesses from your actions. Until now, I never really know why I appeal to you.. What makes me different from the other girls on the street. Your answers had been vague. Or maybe there's nothing in me that brings you good memory..
-
Perhaps due to our differences, this relationship requires alot of effort.. And you recently bring to my attention that you had been struggling to understand me. I guess I tell you too much - everything that comes to my mind, and all the things I said eventually confused you. I tried to hide a little, and it makes the situation worse.. Since I was back from Germany (maybe way before I went abroad), I start to see a loss in passion and it worries me that we might fall apart somehow. We had each other's company for more than two and a half years, it seems natural that things become a routine. But what keeps a relationship going is the passion we share. I do not know how to continue if I don't see it coming from you. That is why I had been so upset lately. You said things will improve, especially after our Bintan trip, and I certainly hope so..
-
As we move on, I start to see what lies ahead as challenges and not obstacles. I cherish our relationship alot and I hope to see it grow strong. But all these would not happen without your support. I typed all these to let you know where I stand and what I hope to achieve together with you. I guess I would never have the courage to say all these to you in person. But I thought it could help you understand me better.. and I really hope it helps. I look forward to the Bintan trip as I do not see it as another routine with you..

Pasta on the menu

Cooked pasta today: Seafood paradise (Some lame name I thought of, for the purpose of this blog. :p)
Tried to make the pork knuckle dish Jason and gang had in Germany for Dad since the pock knuckle had been placed in the fridge for a very long time. King and I were really excited in the beginning because the skin was deep fried to a crisp! But King said we need to roast the knuckle, according to some recipe on the website. In the end, the knuckle was overcooked, too hard to be consumed. King said the pasta was nice. But Dad declined to eat my pasta. ;( He said the whole house smelled funny the moment he stepped home because of the cream sauce I used. But he did try abit and said it didnt taste as bad as it smells.

Some reflections of the day:
Insufficient zzZZZ: Realised I had been sleeping late these days. Tired yet cant sleep. I probably have to kick this habit soon since I'm starting work soon.
-
It's fading: I told King how I feel about our relationship these days. But I wasnt much reassured by his replies. Maybe, to him, I might be thinking too much again. But this feeling had been lingering in me ever since I'm back from Germany. I hesitate to tell him as I thought it might be another sensitive thought of mine. Even if it's true, telling him wont make much good. It will only raise his awareness. These little things would come from the heart. Not forced! If there were changes, they were probably short term. Afterall, I reminded him about it.. Although it isnt something vital, I hope to solve the problem soon.
-
Time to clear my room: Had been procrastinating. Used up all my time doing other stuff, I didnt even have enough time for my own. Shall make use of the time tomorrow. Hope I dont procrastinate again. BAD habit!
-
Yawns. I'm definitely sleeping soon. Bye.

One fine day

Spent the whole day with King today. ;)
-
I sent King to Bishan in his car and then drove back home. So what? Yup! I'm SOoo proud of myself! I made my way home safely without getting lost. I even drove back to Bishan to fetch King later on. Whahha.. And I won myself a drink from King for being so good with directions. I already thought of what drink I want.. The sinful Chocolate drink at City Link. ;p
-
We went to a famous Thai restaurant after that. As it was still early, only take-aways were available. King ordered the famous beef noodles while I satisfy my craving for green curry again. Thanks to penpo, I had been addicted to Thai food these days. We ordered the mango gutinious rice too. Yummy! It wasnt very expensive. The 3 items we ordered only add up to $11. The beef noodles were cheap and good. The first few sips of the green curry was super 'shiok'. But It got abit 'gelat' at the last few mouthful. Think I still prefer the green curry at Lek Thai. ;p
-
King came over to my house later on. Wanted to try out my new burger invention but King thought the idea was funny. In the end, as I couldnt get all the ingredients from NTUC, I made some changes to it.. Just a simple burger with egg, chicken steak, cheese and lettuce. King will have to try the invention next time.

One fine day has passed. It's time to Zzzz now. Good night!

What's wrong with me?

Something is bothering me. What is it?
-
I dont know what is happening. I woke up not feeling well today. The arguement we had yesterday seemed to be resolved. Yet, I dont feel good about it. It seems to be hanging there unsolved. He is avoiding it and I'm lost.
-
Ting's bf broke up with her 2 weeks ago. She lost him because she has given him too much love, expecting him to give her back some but he did not know how to appreciate/ reciprocate. Or rather, he stopped reciprocating. For me, I often question myself if I demand too much love from him.
-
He has always been the nice person, while I always play the unreasonable role. He cheers me up when I feel down, he comes over to my house when I am bored, he brings me surprises once in a while.. I picked a fight when he is upset, I'm often late when I go over his house, my surprises were never surprising enough for him.. This already reflects alot about our relationship..
So what's wrong with me?

...

Lost. Hurt. These can only describe my feelings now...
