WHAT EXACTLY DO YOU WANT?
He doesn’t notice you, you begin to cry. He finally notices you , you withdraw and avoid him like a bug. Often times, we dedicate ourselves to things, so intensely, and then BOOM! We get what we set out to get and suddenly, we lose interest.
I’ll tell you my story;
I had a crush on a guy in my first year in school. He had the grace of a lord and the face of a god (wow! I just rhymed). I remember when we first met, I was heading to class. He obviously wasn't paying attention to where he was going. He hit me, I gasped and was about to say something terrible when I caught his eyes. I was lost. Those blue eyes made me late to class that day, those blue eyes weren't just staring at me but mocking me, those blue eyes visited my dreams that night as I slept. I didn't get to see those blue eyes again until weeks later.
Naïve as I was, I tried everything humanly possible to get his attention. I went as far as stalking him until I got his attention. I tripped and fell for all his charms; his blue eyes and cute little nose inclusive. Before long, he began to develop feelings for me, I noticed. God! I was elated.
As soon as he voiced those feelings I had earlier suspected he had for me, the butterflies I gladly housed in my stomach, fluttered out and I began to avoid him. Soon afterwards, he developed interest in my friend (I still wonder what he saw in her, he must have done that to get my attention again) and those stupid little butterflies, fluttered back in.
It’s like menstrual flow, you look forward to seeing it for the very first time. You get it and then, you wonder why you have to go through days of severe cramping (in some cases) and you wish it would just stop for a while. If it does stop, you wonder, you fret, you get disturbed and wish it would come back.
Now that I think about it, it feels like I’m more interested in making the efforts (feels like a super adventure) to get such attention than actually getting the attention.
It’s crazy, I know! But it’s my story.

ReplyDeleteWomen, interesting creatures they are. Complicated, true, but still interesting. They could be very confused, as to not knowing what they want (even when it's right in front of them). On the other hand, when a woman fixates on something (good or bad for her), it takes quite an effort to change her mind. They like craving for attention they can't get, while totally ignoring the ones literally begging to be noticed. Cool and calm in their ways, but you'd only be a troglodyte if you let their appearances fool you. If a woman wants you, only the entities in heaven can save you from her. They are such sweet, complicated beings that either light up your world, or turn it into a living hell. They are as beautiful as nature itself, but equally could be as deadly. They give meaning and purpose to the world.
ReplyDeleteGood piece you've got there. Keep it up.
Wow! You've sumed it all up..
