Back off or else...

I am on the train to meet mommy(jo) for driniks at mortons. looking at the people around me, it suddenly struck me that even thou no man is an island, but how often do we actually strike a conversation with the person sitting next to us on a long train ride to our final destination? Obviously for me the answer is a big No as i am typing this on the iBook I got onloan from my Head Of Department.

Many of my guy friends told me the reason why they op to take a bus/train was because they can oge at OLs (office ladies). Hey but wait what if they happen to meet someone who caught their eyes? Would they approach the lady and ask her for her phone number or email? I mean if someone on the train was to approach me to get my contact I would surely feel flattered but first thing that crosses my mind would be “hey is this guy a total nut case as to approach someone for her number on a train?” (Actually I’d use the word desperate). In this built up city with so many people passing / crossed paths in our lives how woulod we find “the one”? In my opinion all it takes is a little courage to stand up and get to the person who caught our eye. In short, it may just be that simple as to open up our eyes and pluck the courage to approach that person.

One of my friends met his wife when she picked him up in a club, next thing we know this shy bachelor got attached and soon got married to the woman who took the chancce to “pick” him up in the club.

While being a opportunitist might not seem to be a bad thing, but it does annoy me when I am not even interested. This happened to me recently when I invited a few friends to my house during the Chinese New Year get together. This guy was initially meant to be introduced to one of my gal pal. But turns out that the guy was more interested in me while yours truly has absolutely no interested in him or what so ever. This guy is an typical example of an opportunist Friends described him as a chiongster, he doesnt reallly take into conderation if the other party is interested or not, if he fancies her he will go out and hit on her irregardless of her feelings towards him. Overly aggressive I would say. This is a major turn off for my part. I would not say that this is a bad thing, but please do read the other party’s body language, if she were to ignore/ reject your advances, then it would be time to BACK OFF. Stop making a pest out of yourself! Or else it will only makes things worst.

Irony as it seems that I am single... I should be glad that someone as eligable as this person has opted to hit on me. I don’t want to be mean but I would like to tell him that I’m sorry I’m simply not interested. Stop wasting your time. That is if I had the chance. Coming out as a group certainly gave me some headaches as, I did not even want to sit next to him, as I am pretty turned off by his actions. So annoyed as I am with him, I am acctually playing a game of musical chairs with him. Everytime he tries to sit beside me, I’d switch places. FO crying out loud! Isn’t this clear enough that I am NOT interested?

If I have given him the wrong impression that I am even slightly interested by being friendly, I am truly sorry....If he is that insensitive.... Then theres nothing I can do.. Except to rest my case and prolly avoid him until he gets the idea. If he still insist on being perservant... I rest my case.
