a few months ago, i met a guy. he was a classmate of my best friend during her elementary years. she was introduced to me by a text message because the guy is looking for someone to date. he wanted a korean-looking girl, so my friend thought that maybe i am a perfect fit for him to date.

 

we started at texting then after that phone calls. i was introduced by him to underground bands and rock music, which i dont like. he said the lyrics are good but i gave no appreciation about it. i just played the song on youtube while having phone conversations with him just to grant his requests. i saw his friendster profile, on a first impression you think of him as nice and friendly person. and right there he is considred as " bespren ng bayan" (best friend of all). then after a few weeks chatting on phone and cellular phones, i noticed that he has an "attitude". i guess he wants people to get along with him and to always put themselves in his shoes, but he is not open to make the same for others. i just realized that after one time he humiliate me. he said to me that i he is really like that so whether i like it or not i have to accept it and bear with him. at first i just ignored it. i thought maybe he is really like that. but little by little he is making me humiliated. when i told him that i didnt feel good about it, he just laughed telling me that he made a record again..

 

from then on i started observing his acts. one time we met in a mall...i guess it's a blind date. he gave me his early bday present and i liked it. actually he looked crazy. he was wearing funny shades just to make himself unnoticed by people with a matching naruto band. deep inside of me i was shy to myself and to the other people there. i was dating this kind of guy? it was totally wierd for me. yet i only did was just to laugh if off.

 

then after that a month later we have not talked to each other on phone. i moved to uplb to have a summer orientation program sponsored by the dost, which pays my tuition fee in the university. for short, i am a scholar of dost who attended the summer orientation program sponsored by them. for a month i have no contacts with him i dont talk to him. after the program , i went back to manila to have my remaining summer vacation. this time he gave me comments on friendster, actually i dont like them. i dont like the way he tells me about things. he asks me about certain things and then after i answer it he will just give stupid comments. i dont like it. i dont like the way it is. it was so disrespectful for me to receive coments like that. i dont know i guess, there will be a great possibility that he will just laugh it off and dont give comments anymore...like nothing. i dont think he will look at this something serious but i dont care i dont want to predict because my predictions dont happen. sometimes it's the opposite.
