I have been able to catch up with some really dear friends in the last 2 weeks or so, all thanks to my really busy partner.

Imagine this.... we spend our off days without each other... and on work days of course we don't meet much as well... Seriously, it makes no difference then... whether we are together or not, it makes no difference... I went through the weekend like a happy swinging single... and he, goes drinking every other night.. as long as his friends call, he will be there...

I cannot comprehend... I don't think he is in love... I happened to hit his soft spot in the lowest point of my life, and being the sensitive virgo, he wanted to help... and in the process started something he may not want.

He may tell me he wants to continue with this relationship, he is serious about it... But his actions and all don't coincide with what he says... Maybe he is just another one of those males species who enjoys the perks of being attached, but still wants to live life of a swinging single..

I am totally cool with that as long as he tells me that...

Don't lead me on, don't say something you don't mean, and don't hurt me...

Hi there, thank you for your interest in my post. :)

In response to http://esmondng.blogspot.com/2005/10/i-believe-by-esmond-ng-copyright.html#comments

I fully understand what you are saying. That's exactly the reason why i am so enchanted in my own fairytale. And part of it entails both the guy and girl putting each other as their entire worlds. This rarely occurs in real life, but it would be in my little magical fantasy you see?

By reciprocate, i mean to express the unconditional interchange of love, emotions and attachment to each other; not the one-way come the other way turn-around response as perceived.

If by forgotten childhood aspirations did you "fall" into my poem, you should be able to see my angle of expression. I guess then that "obligation" can be eaily obliterated in this child-like alternate world.

However in reality, what u quoted is indeed in play. After numerous heartaches and disappointments, it's not difficult to admit that i grow weary of Love too. Perhaps precisely, my many nostalgic re-runs of Love that likens to old movies. Precisely so, reasons to call it "I believe" (still).

Love's fool,

Esmond Ng.
