3 weeks of hols jus gone LIKE THIS...
and only 3 days more to TAIWAN trip!!!
Shouts: "ARE YOU GALS READY?"
~ Cant wait!!!
To her:
I know it's hard to accept things that u didn't expect it would turn out like this way.
People around u putting pressure, saying things that made u hard to breathe, many nasty things that almost made u give up.
Dont feel useless, dont feel down. Most importantly, dont be demoralised.
It seems tough and takes a longer time than others. You see... U can walk, run or even crawl eventually will still reach the same destination. The only thing is time factor.
It's okay, gal. Certain things we do need a longer time to understand and complete, but remember to be confident in whatever u're doing. Learning journey has no end.
Getting up once again and be determined! Be strong, though you may think ppl has already stepped further than u; u might even learn more than the rest (:
Dont give up! Remember u have already gone so far.
HUGS and KISSES to u, gal. U still have family and friends supporting u... ^^
Some encouragement:
"When things go wrong as they sometimes will,
When the road u're trudging seems all up hill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high
And u wan to smile, but u have to sigh,
When care is pressing u down a bit,
Rest if u must, but dont u quit.
Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As every one of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about
When he might have won had he stuck it out;
Dont give up though the pace seems slow--
U may succeed with another blow,
Success is failure turned inside out--
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And u never can tell how close u are,
It may be near when it seems so far;
So stick to the fight when u're hardest hit--
It's when things seem worst that u must not quit."
So, KEEP GOING!!! (:
Personal feelings going thru...
There are times things just dont run smoothly in relationships.
Sometimes we just dont know what to do to make a good r/s.
Say for an example, 1) Emotional support vs emotional demands.
I felt this is the most common concern. Important!!!
Emotional support is always be there for him; behind him no matter wat. But this doesnt mean that agreeing in each other all the time. Everything also say ya, true, i agree... right. CRAP!
Truthfully, there's no 2 people will agree on all situations. Emotional support means treating each other in a way of love, trust and always with him thru anything. Everyone needs support and encouragement too! The motivation to go further!(:
Emotional demands worsen and damage the r/s. Emotional demands are like insisting yr partner to spend all of his time with u, insisting him to give up his time for his friends or family just for u. Or insisting only to spend time around yr friends, making sure u make the decisions on how u both going to spend time tgt, where to go, what to do and even make him guilty when he spend his time with his family or friends. Making sure u win all arguements, only insist that yr feelings are the most important. These are all emotional demands in a r/s. It's a NO NO!
I think having both emotional support and emotional demands balanced in a r/s is tough but both can play a part in making a good r/s tgt (:
Most importantly is accepting one and another's differences and not insisting to meet yr needs only in the way u wan. Finding out how he shows love and concerns for u by the way he do things, etc.
Dont set criteria before u've satisfied (: i think saying i love u, blahblah... should not b the demands and the "need to be said often" in r/s.
Next example. 2) Spending time tgt and also apart.
I think this is another common r/s concern.
Not spending enough time tgt? Not been able to have more personal time on yr own?
You may enjoy time tgt with him and he may also wan some time tgt with u, but u also may wan to spend time alone by yrself, or with yr friends. Dont get the thinking that he dont spend time with u means that he dont love u, dont care for u as u really need. In my opinion, should go and share the feelings abt what u need from the r/s in terms of the time spending tgt / apart.
Not forgetting he does need some personal space too (: Compromise on how u both can spend more time tgt and leave him having the freedom to be alone or with his friends/family when needed w/o having feelings neglected, rejected and also w/o thinking tt he's selfish, not caring at all (: Putting yrself in his shoes. If demanding on what u wan regardless of his needs will only end up driving him away n strain the r/s badly.
3) Money matters too!
HEADACHE ahhH!~ No money, no talk?
Money is important. Movies, shopping, dining out, travelling tgt all needs money.
Wherever u go, whatever u do also need money... especially in S'pore.
So in r/s do need to talk abt money matters, making decisions on how to handle money properly and spending money wisely.
Talking abt it tgt! Not individually but mutually :) Ya, it seems so much easier to think abt how to handle/control money on yr own, but having another person involved, best solutions may not be those u think of jus on yr own. By discussing and cooperating tgt may not provide the best solutions but at least knowing u and him agree on how to deal/approach the situation and the problem will relieve alot of stress ^^ Dont always talk abt money, if not ppl think u're money-minded. haha! So calculative for what? :D
4) Coping with changing expectations in a r/s. "Stress... "
R/s changes over time. Wat u wan, wat u need from a r/s is totally diff from the beginning of a r/s as compared to a r/s been tgt for a number of years. Changes in areas of life, changes outside r/s, changes of environment do play a part too.
As i always believe tt an environment and time can change a person, but... i was only half right. It is not a total change in the person. Same goes to the r/s. So sure enough to make time for each other to talk abt expectations, negiotate responsiblities and also the changes been going thru in the r/s as well.
Important: be careful and respectful in listening in what each other has to say, to pay attention to what each wants. Communication; right tone and clear message to be carried across. I'm sure u dont wish to have many misunderstandings in yr r/s :)
Certain changes in a r/s tend to be alittle stressful but it's inevitable. Cannot avoid one! Sooner or later still have to face the changes and go along with it. Why not face the changes tgt instead?
Same goes to the problems in r/s, dont hide and think they will be solved as time passes.
No, no... as time goes, small problem become big ones. Isnt that worse?
Well, i would accept the change and take it for a reason- an opportunity to strengthen the r/s! Dont try to keep the changes from happening. Maybe should plan for changes tgt, then will lead the r/s to b more exciting!!!
`Reflecting... (:
:: Not mentioning partner's friends and family factors as this is going to be kind of lengthy. haha!
and only 3 days more to TAIWAN trip!!!

SUNDAY, WE GO to the ZOO!!!~May i know where u're from? From Amk! From Yishun! hahaha :D
SINGAPORE of course! Dont we look like s'poreans?(:

1. The person over the cashier took wrong orders. (how can 2 person having one toast set & 3 Milo?)
2. Didn't repeat our orders when we requested him to repeat before payment.
