Dating is a process.
Begins when you get to know a person whom u're attracted to...
Dark eye ring phase: from through the night phone calls....
Compulsive sms-ing: Reporting strange things like where you are and what you are doing and complaining that u're hungry even though you know the person is too far away to offer you any food. But still, u just wanna tell.
All the movies rock: Every movie on the last few pages of Life seems to be really enticing. And going out after work isnt all that tiring.
重色轻友 accusation: Everyone seems to be complaining that they havent seen u ard much and how u're never free for lunch and dinners except on tuesday nights because he's playing basketball with his friends.
Siamese Twins: As the name implies, its always just the 2 of u. At this time, you're always wondering how come u never realized that the stars were so bright and the moon was so round. It seems like nothing is more important in this world, and how you wish time could just stop for the 2 of u.
Weaving dreams: U guys talk about going overseas to study together, how many kids u wanna have, wat kinda house u wanna live in, wat kind of sofa set is suitable for the house. U start having a picture about what life is gonna be like in future. U start talking about "us" even though marriage is at least 5 yrs down the road.
Well, some people go on to accomplishing their dream, but others, go on to the next step.
Shattering of the heart: For watever reasons, you guys decide that it should be "you" and "me" instead of "us".
Flashbacks: All the good times u've spent together keeps coming back to you. The mere thought that u'd never hold that same hand again, you'll never hug that same person again, you'll never lean on that same shoulder again.. paralysing.
Waiting: Ur cell phone never leaves your side. You check it at an interval of approximately 2 mins. EVERY SINGLE time your phone beeps, you secretly say a prayer and hope that its him/her. But its almost always disappointing.
Vicious cycling: Then you cycle between "i dont like him anymore", "i need to get over him" and "i think he'll come back to me". Its a vicious cycle. Until you break this cycle, u're gonna be... ups and downs.
Numb: There comes a time when the pain gets too much, and drags on for too long, that... u just become numb and stop feeling.
Meeting someone new: Need i explain? The fact tt someone else takes up ur conscious thinking and acts as a form of distraction, you will slowly forget that pain, and move on into something new. =) It ALWAYS happens. Dont question whether there will be someone else. There definitely will be. Its just a matter of how long the next person takes to appear.
I thought i'd do this up in an academic model form. including graphic representations and all. But.. heck la. =) Seriously, everyone goes through this. And more often than not... more than once in their life. It takes courage and bravery to be strong and fight through the pain. But thats why u've got friends to remind u that.. hey, ure not alone. =)
