I reserve few minutes everyday to read scrapbooks of some of my female friends. Before ppl judge me, I just do it to read some really funny friendship messages this gals get. Sometimes it downright hilarious. I know its must be really annoying for gals.I have read some gals cribbing about it in their blog and justifiably so [Link].
I digress. The reason for this post is not to laugh at messages written by some weirdos. I had a huge crush on one gal in college. I would try to act funny around her. Every guy has his strength some are macho, some are sport person, some are intelligent and some are rich.I was none of that so I thought being funny was my thing. ( I know thats lame :( ). I would crack jokes as soon I get around her. Couple of semester later, she perceived me as a funny guy who is never serious in life and wouldn't want to hang around me. What a shame. *sobs*.
However I was smitten by her till I came to USA ( thats one and half year after my bachelor's degree). Its during this time, I use send silly messages to her. I used to send her silly forwards and offline messages. I now equate these messages to "I want to make Friendship with you" messages.I would ask her what is she doing? Wish her best of luck repeatedly for exams. Being the nice gal that she is , she would painfully respond to all my messages. But eventually she stopped replying.Well my obsession to desperately stay in touch continued for a while and then things snapped back to normal one fine day. Last stupid message I sent her was on December 2005.Its amazing that although I am terrible with remembering dates and bday's , I always remember her bday couple of days in advance. Although now I just message her a simple "Happy birthday !!".
So even now when I sometimes see a guy trying to befriend a gal via some social networking website, it puts a smile on my face. I am not justifying them but somewhere I can connect with them. Although I would never write some stupid message to some unknown girl. ( I feel I am too old for that *sobs* ).
However, today through this blog I want to thank that gal for being so patient around idiot like me. Hope you have a great life ahead.
To you all you weirdos who want to make friendship ( I was a weirdo, not anymore :D ) , go out and seek your women instead of cowardly sending here messages via internet. It works better.
