Typical "girls like bad boys" case.

I am reading newspaper 1 find morning when I stumbled upon this article. You can read it later using the link or below. Well, if you were to ask me, my "advice" will be as follow;

Dear Ms X,

I believe you should go for B as A is too good for you. Please leave A alone until you are done with your slutty lifestyle. You just want excitement and I am pretty sure you will feel extremely excited when B dumps you after he is done with you. You might see your number on his wall, like other girls.

After that you might go back to A but I wish A is smart enough to know what to do and you will be swearing "ALL MEN ARE BAD". But bear in mind, you created such behavior in the first place. No demand, no supply. Period.

Between wild passion and dull comfort


I AM 25 years old, and have been with my boyfriend, A, for three years. We are in the midst of planning to get married next year.

However, I have always felt that we don’t have a lot in common. Recently, I got to know this guy at work, B, who is of a different religion.

Despite our different cultures and backgrounds, we clicked instantly and were able to chat for hours.

In short, we enjoy each other’s company, both during and after office hours.

B knows about my relationship with A but when we hang out, A is never a topic in our conversation.

B’s is normally very cheerful but his mood changes if I bring up the subject of A or just mention him in any way.

While I like B’s company and enjoy spending time with him, I guess that I need to remind myself of A’s existence.

Many of our mutual friends say they are sure B and I could be an ideal couple but we just shrug it off.

One day, out of the blue, B told me in a serious tone he that has “expectations” for our relationship and that he really likes me.

I responded with a loud “Huh?”, and he immediately said that he was just kidding.

Since then, that topic has not come up again but he has begun to avoid me.

Whenever my colleagues and I gather in a large group, he treats me as if I am invisible.

I feel hurt by the way he is shunning me but perhaps it is because I have upset him.

I do like B more than as just another ordinary friend.

But I have become so used to being with A. Coming from a religious family complicates things further.

Who should I choose, A or B?

Old v New

WHOSE face do you see when you think about the future?

Do you want to feel safe, familiar and acceptable? Or do you prefer a relationship with someone who could make you feel loved, warm and tender?

Some women prefer practical predictability to wild heartbeats and passion. It’s a choice each individual has to make, and neither is right nor wrong.

Many of us walk through life passively and safely. Some of us prefer adventures, risks and excitement. Ultimately, it’s what we are that makes the difference.

Some say love, passion and romance will fizzle out after marriage. Some swear to great love and joy for a lifetime.

Most of us pretend that all is well. When pushed into a corner, we blame, cry and walk away yelling “foul!”.

Don’t play games because it hurts people. A three-way relationship is never fair to anyone involved. You’re cheating yourself as much as your guys.

While you believe that you are being fair and righteous because you have always told the truth, why bother to spend time with a fellow you don’t dare love? Do you blame the poor guy for treating you as if you were invisible?

Be honest, sincere and rational if you can. It’s never easy making choices when your heart is being pulled from different directions and your mind confused.

You want to please your family and yet your emotions are so contrary to good sense.

Spend time with A and simply enjoy the moments with him. Be fair, do not judge.

Relax with B and talk to him. Be friends for now so that you not feel the pressure to choose.

In time, you will have to make a choice. Just do not leave room for regrets.
