He Loves Me... Not? (2014) Print

Love? or no love? The sian*-ness and silliness of singlehood *A wonderfully concise Hokkien adjective which conveys boredom, weariness, frustration and emptiness. The English equivalent would be "ennui". So I'm quite happily single at the moment, as I'm focused (trying really hard to be focused heh..) on developing my relationship with myself and on my career as an artist and a life coach. I don't have time for romance, or even to look for romance, and I want to work on myself first before attempting to create something with a significant other. Despite choosing to be single for now, I can't help thinking about romance and dating, but usually it's just in passing and I can put it aside and continue what I need to do. But of course, there are days when it's hard to move away from my romantic daydreams... and one of those days is today. Argh... so there's this guy I'm really really attracted to, and I started to develop feelings for him a few months ago. Nope it's not the cute stranger that I approached and asked out - that one was simply me challenging my comfort zone. This guy is my friend for almost 2 years now, and basically attraction is mutual, but it's complicated and so we can't develop our friendship in that direction. (It's mostly just bad timing for romance for both of us, but no worries he's not married or in a relationship or bi-curious.) So we're not "waiting" for each other, and I don't plan to wait for anyone anyway, but it's annoying for me when I can't act upon my feelings towards someone, and because we can't see how the potential romance may develop, the feelings are pretty much unresolved. For the most part I'm okay when I don't see or hear from him (we're not close friends) and I haven't heard from him in almost a month... but when I do see him.. like I did yesterday... ARGH.. it's like the attraction resets and now he's running amok in my mind. So here's my quirky, curious and confused PenguinGirl doing the whole petal-picking-"he loves me he loves me not"-thing, because this is exactly my mental and emotional state right now. Oh the sian-ness and silliness of singlehood sometimes...
