To go or not to go

First and foremost, Happy Children’s Day!! It had been a good ten years since my last children’s day… Oh man… it’s hard to admit that I’m no longer young, but I still can’t help to wake up feeling like a kid every morning.

Phew…Let me take a short break from my assignments.

Yesterday, I was surprise when one of my long-time-no-chat friend msn-ed me. If you’re wondering, I switched to offline mode so that our conversation will not be distracted.

Let’s see how I shall put this…

In short, her ex-boyfriend had sent her the invitation for his wedding, and she was wondering if it would be appropriate for her to attend.

I am sure there is something amiss about the wedding when she told me they broke up for merely a year, after 4 years together. Don’t ask me if he is a playboy, I don’t know. Let’s assume he is not too rotten and believe in the best of people by giving him the benefit of the doubt, shall we??

For my friend, I think she wasn’t totally over him just yet, explaining her dilemma.

As I was typing away on the keyboard, I knew my two cents worth of advice will be falling on deaf ears but nevertheless, I still dish out various options on what she can do!!! That’s so nice of me….

In my opinion, there can only be two options.

Go – If someone invites you, it is out of courtesy to attend the event, isn’t it??
Don’t go – Inform beforehand that you have more important things to attend to. There is no need for an explanation.

That is the simplest case scenario. But when the question of “should I go, or not” comes in, it is largely determine by the reasons behind it. So I posted her the question as to why and why not to go, and her reply was one of a kind!!

She wanted to attend the wedding so that she can scold the bride, bitch about her and splash some alcohol on her.
She did not want to attend because she might lose control and do the above stated.

What the heck??? Is she really going to do that?? I can understand her grievance for the lost of youth, love and honor she had sacrificed for the 4 years, but I guess one year of mourning period is sufficient to brush off all the broken pieces of a shattered relationship.

After dispensing advices cum consoling cum analyzing the situation for a whole 2 hours, she was still telling me how she would plot against the bride. WTH… no wonder he ditched her.

You can’t fault me for saying this, can you?? I mean, she is really stubborn, childish and a pain-in-the-ass. It is usual to get hitched and then ditched in a relationship. If she is really going to create havoc at the wedding, it will only showcase the worst of her. Creating a scene will not get the better out of a person in anyway.

Perhaps she is only vetting her evil thoughts to me?? I hope she is not as bad as I have thought. But when I was about to go to bed, she was still plotting against the bride. I hope she was joking. What else can I say??

I rest my case.


What will you do if u were in her shoes??

Just for laugh

A guy goes to the supermarket and notices an attractive woman waving at him. She says hello. He's rather taken a back because he can't place where he knows her from. So he says, 'Do you know me?'

To which she replies, 'I think you're the father of one of my kids.

Now his mind travels back to the only time he has ever been unfaithful to his wife and says, 'My God, are you the stripper from my bachelor party whom I made love to on the pool table with all my buddies watching while your partner whipped my butt with wet celery???'

She looks into his eyes and says calmly, 'No, I'm your son's teacher.'
