Oh yeah?
Here's my reply to my sister's blog entry. I wanted to leave a comment but realised that it's way too long a reply to count as a comment. So here is my lengthy reply. =)
when such situations occur...u just need to gather a few gal pals...who will unhesitantly conclude "its THEM! its not YOU!!!" Of course i cant ask my brother...who will definitely say "its you...its not them..."
EXCUSE ME! I never said that!
If you bloody want me to analyse why your relationships didn't work out, I can do it.
For free even!
Here goes :
The one that got away :
You didn't really like him. You didn't know what to do. It's called being young and clueless.
The first boyfriend :
You didn't really love him. You thought you knew what to do and despite my warning, decided that you wanted to try a relationship with a guy you didn't love but who treats you like a princess.... and he irritated the hell out of you.
The second boyfriend :
He swooned the hell out of you. You loved him even though you know he's a playboy. You got together with him to find that you loved him more than he loved you. You treated him like a prince but he didn't give you the princess treatment you deserved.
Everyone in a relationship is "happily attached". I seldom hear people say they're unhappily attached.
While there is nothing wrong with being single, it is an entirely different thing to pretend to be happy when you're not. And while it is sad to have no one to complete your life, it is not shameful. It is even sadder to have to continuously assert to yourself that you are happy to be single even though you are lonely and envious of happily-attached people.
I've said this before and I'll say it again : Treasure the experiences that all your failed relationships have brought you. You can only learn the hard way (as opposed to pretending to understand relationship woes from a bystander point of view) and that's better than to never have learned or experienced at all.
I know I do.
(I'm a goddamn preacher, ain't I? =P )

I wanna join in the fray too! :D
YES. YOU ARE A PREACHER.
There are gazillions of ppl who are unhapily attached!!
Sometimes, constinuously asserting that we're happy even thou we're single, is juz to help us pass the day.
You can't expect us to sit around and whine about not having anyone to complete our lives, that we feel miserable and lonely!!!!
I'm fairly okay about being single, not tremendously happy, but I'm ok, because thats juz how it is.. what am I supposed to do?? Besides, I'm holding out for my Prince Charming, and my fairytale.. *chuckle*
But I'll be damned if I sit around at home and mope about it..
Life is short. Find things to do that'll keep you happy.. like going out for coffee with me and treating me to dinners!! hahahahah!!! :D
*Big Hugs*
