You are beautiful.
I say this often but you don’t always believe me. You tell me you have put on weight; you tell me it’s the hormones, that time of the month, the new diet, the stress at work. You tell me your ex-boyfriend is a louse, that he’s been calling you up five months after getting married (to the woman he’s left you for, no less). You tell me you are considering his suggestion of some post-breakup sex seriously. You try not to think about his wife.
Kenny Mah believes in the good in people. He has been blogging for over ten years. No, his hands aren't tired. Yet.
I’m a bit confused with ppl who already broke up but still remain to maintain in keeping in touch.
@Selba: Well, relationships do come in different forms. And they don’t always involve the same parameters as before. Sometimes we separate and distance ourselves from our ex’s; sometimes we remain/become friends (and maybe better ones than before).
It all works out in the end, hopefully.
i wonder why it’s so hard to believe when someone tells us we are beautiful. i mean i have no trouble telling other people they are gorgeous..
@luuworld: Same here. When it hits me or when I meet a friend/stranger and it occurs to me, I just say it. One could argue it’s simply paying compliments but I think it’s being honest and sincere.
And really, who doesn’t like hearing nice things about themselves? *winks*
It takes two to tango!
@jemima: Two to tango, and three is trouble? Oops.
sigh…
@Michelle Chin: Oh dear.
eeks, what happened/happens next?
p.s. ok, ok, you are beautiful, kenny :P
@Sean: Good question.
P.S. I know, thanks. *guffaws*
He’s an ex for a good reason and it should stay that way.
@Baby Sumo: Some may well agree with you; others may not. Perhaps it’s the character of this particular ex that is the issue – personally I’ve had good ex’s and bad ones, and in the end it’s no one’s fault, really. Sometimes it’s just not meant to be.
(Post-breakup sex though, now that’s another tricky subject…)
My Quay Lo still remain a very good friend to his ex wife and she is also a good friend of mine now :D
I tell her she is beautiful often and she said the same about me :D
Sometimes couples part not because they don’t love each other, it may be some other reasons, only known to them. I know my Quay Lo’s love for his ex is not romantic anymore but platonic and the is absolutely fine with me :D
When people tell me I am beautiful, I believe them and when I see or feel someone is beautiful, I want them to know so I tell them :D
@Quay Po Cooks: Firstly, I must say you are a very, very beautiful person, my friend. Your generosity of heart is obvious from the stories you share on your blog.
And I completely agree with your assessment of the Ex Situation – sometimes it is entirely possible to be friends (i.e. no nasty post-breakup sex surprise/shocker for the new partners) and for the new partners to be friends with the ex too.
My better half is friends with two of my ex’s and that is a fine thing. And they, all of them, ex or current or whatever label we would like to place upon them, are very beautiful people. We are blessed with good people around us who love us and whom we love in return.
Oh one more thing. I want to wish you and Devil A Very Happy Dragon Year! Hugs.
@Quay Po Cooks: Devil and I would like to wish you and Quay Lo and your loved ones a most excellent Dragon New Year too! *big hugs*
there’s nothing wrong at all keeping in touch with your ex..but why post breakup sex? sometimes things are just so strange…
@lena: To each his/her own, I guess. To each their own.
life is simple….love can be complicated
@rokh: And so it is, sometimes. Doesn’t make it any less worthy or worthwhile though.
