Sensible heat.

My friend called me up earlier this evening asking me how she should answer essay questions for tomorrow's exam on Singapore Government and Politics. And I felt really happy that she gave me an actual call (rather than Facebook or something like that) because I'm always scared that people find me too unapproachable. Especially my friends in

I hear you about the sense of right and wrong thing. I've mostly learnt to shut it down, and that scares me too, because sometimes I catch myself doing or wanting to do things that 2-year-ago me would find reprehensible.

-hugs- We should hang out soon. And watch sappy rom-coms.

*hugs* Yes, we should hang out! I can't remember the last time I watched a sappy rom-com.

*hugs* I think it will take some time to forget, or at least become indifferent towards him? It took me more than a year to break off contact fully with that friend of mine because he couldn't get it in his head that "No" means "No", regardless of whether I say it in a resigned, angry or cold way. I think the worst was when he was trying to reconcile between prelims and A-levels, that was both incredibly insensitive and yet well-meaning at the same time. So as long as you don't blame yourself too much, it is okay to take all the time you need.

Well. New turn of events. Girlfriend has taken him back and they're back together again. Sort of. Which was why I went through a new low last night, but since it's now well and truly over I guess it's easier to move on. I don't know. I guess I was slightly arrogant to think it was going to be different with me. But, as my friend happily pointed out, it still doesn't excuse the fact that he's an arsehole.

Sometimes I wonder whether it is the fault of us girls for being arrogant to think that relationships - both platonic and romnatic - will be different with us, or whether it's really because these few bad eggs are such assholes/immature children that even it we really have a "special" place in their hearts they wouldn't know how to treat us properly anyway. I guess that's m tl;dr way of getting to the point that moving on will hurt, but it has to be done <3

Case in point. I'm pretty sure he loves his girlfriend. He's still pretty shitty to her. So. Yea.
