Found out this other issue (aside from me and my instant popularity across the floor) just earlier after shift, while the creepy one and I ate Siomai (w/c by the way made me a mistisa the entire day … details later in this post) with two other people I’ve bumped in the lobby or so at one point. The account’s growing and theres lots of new faces both beautiful and ugly, friendly and nasty (what the!) anyways, so I found eating Siomai and the creepy one talking to the other two person (dont want to mention names) … did I say that right? two person? without s or with s? … freak! Whatever, they were talking basically nonesense (at least to me) dont digg on basketball and tennis or any other activity foreign to me. Now person number 1 (w/c happens to be a guy) is another loud person whom at one point said upon seeing my name that am new … yeah the newest “rookie” on the floor … what wave again? 21 yeah .. thats me.
Okay, enough of the bullshit, he was just on lunch so he went ahead of us … leaving me, person number 2 (w/c happens to be a girl) with creepy … now creepy being the creep as his name connotes was teasing this person number 2 with someone whose s’pose to be a fwend of mine, a close fwend he said. Had to think of someone … a guy close to me … linked with person number 2. Couldnt believe it, the tail of the trio is linked with this person … wait till I tell Wafa … cant imagine what her reaction would be, is it gonna be the same when we saw the first gal and what “they’re” doing? uhmmmm … most likely…. nyways …
Person number 2 and I happened to be going to basically the same area, so we rode the same jeepney … and what’d you expect? … the chicka galore chuvaness started .. we’ll let me say nonstop (like the ice cream lol!) . So person number 2 did talk, about when it started … what exactly happened, and per creepy … they’re definitely not the same kind of guy.
He said if he likes someone he’d let the whole world know (well not literally) but he’d make it a point to let the person know that he likes her, would go to her station and talk nonesense, would not be ashame if they’d be teased (ahem!) … whereas the other guy is not like that at all … it was purely “due to no voice response?” (where’d you get that Weng?) uhmmm … its more like the “u’ve got mail” kinda thingy … (meg ryan and tom hanks), correspondence was done through outlook (my gosh be careful of screenshots …. Ive had a few already) and text messages (this is so … crappy)
Person number 2 told me that he was actually sweet (define sweet? honey …) would hold her hand at a time or two …. (haller … ok ra ka?); would go downstairs to where she’s at so he can accompany her during her lunch (typical!); did ask her out during their rest days (nothing special in that); sent a bunch of sweet nothings (forwarded messages most likely, no originality … hmmph!); At one point she said, while they were on board the jeepney (he accompanied her home), he had his arms around her …. sweet? (nah ah …).
What I didnt like from what she said was they way the guy reacted when she failed to arrive on their “date” per say coz she was sick … was asleep the whole day as she had fever. The messages she was getting were well not nice. Understandable to be pissed at having been stood up but she definitely has a reason, and halllllllerrrrr …. you’re the guy, you’re suppose to be the one to win the girl … and not tell her, okay I’ll give you a second chance … but most likely you’ll just end up doing what you did … (what the?! … will kill him!)
Was like … are you okay? didnt you think that line was intended for girls and not for you? She said some other things , and though I just met her (literally!) I know the guy and what he’s like, though we’re fwends but am a girl and I certainly dont want those words used on me … (masagpaan kag di oras).
Just couldnt believe he has someone on the floor … on the floor pa jud w/o me and Wafa knowing … for me he’s always him, would drop by my station the moment he arrives, would hug me and ask me how I am … would stay a bit to chitchat … but never did it occur to me … that he’s well falling (not the word I wanna use, but cant think of anything else at the moment) for someone.
Wafa is your modern gurlfwend while I on the other hand would be her almost classic/traditional counterpart. But we both agreed way back then when we were still sitting together … that he definitely needs a crash course called girlfriend 101 .
Now to outline the syllabus … (Wafa … if you’re reading this … edit or add anything … you’ve always been the seductress!)
Am a girl (though creepy seem to think otherwise!) born and raised that way. Might be a bit different from anyone else, but what I want as a girl would most likely what other girls want.
* Talk to her - know when to talk and definitely know when to listen.
* Mean what you say and say what you mean - (ano bah sister!); simple. be true, be real. don’t say things you’re most likely to forget the next day. sweet words are nothing when its not accompanied by action.
* Invite her somewhere - special, does not necessarily mean expensive. if you like her, don’t just ask to her to go with you to the nearest mall …. (hallllerrrr .. gipul-an na nah ug mall). don’t wait for her to ask u to accompany her somewhere … (unsa ka? tig? …. )
* Find out what you guys might have in common (aside from work … duh!) - it’d be impossible if there’s none.
* Remember lil details - things that the gal could have mentioned at one point, a tiny detail of some sort … it’d be sweet if you’d actually remember it. meaning you’ve reserve an area of your thought space for her.
* Be a gentleman (in this day and age … tagsa na lang ni) - di mag una una ug kanaog sa jeep, nya modritso lakaw … w/o waiting for her na makanaog … or lets say naa xay bitbit … no matter how small .. offer pud tawn na ikaw dala … E for effort … doesn’t hurt to do trivial things like that. Walking alongside a street, yaw tawn padaplin … nya ang girl kay naa sa side sa road … switch position tawn mo. Or if naglaroy-laroy mo sa mall … yaw tawn reklamo na dugayan kau ang girl (ky thats nature, whether you like it or not) … keep mum and patience is a virtue.
* Know how to read between the lines - lisod … pero takes time and practice. Women think differently from men, as in … being the more complicated species gkinahanglan ang pagsabot ug pasensya.
- Hala Wafa, palihog kog tiwas … am so sleeeeeeeeeeeeeepy nah … might as well go absent later -
