On Saturday I went to 1 Utama for lunch and some banking stuff. After that, I went to Wong Kok Restaurant for lunch and Starbucks for coffee. *yummy*
Basically there’s nothing to do besides doing the banking stuff. So I was spending the Saturday afternoon procrastinating and just surfed the net. Then I realized something… I have been out of touch for far too long. After all these months, I have lost touch to my friends, and sitting at Starbucks alone, I noticed how much I missed some close friends of mine. We certainly fell apart ever since they found a girlfriend or when I was busy with my stuff.
Some people might say that it is inevitable that people fall apart, but the problem is that a lot of us do not take the effort to ensure that the friendship will not fall apart easily. When a friend finds a girlfriend (or boyfriend), they tend to stick to the girlfriend (or boyfriend) and forgot about the friends because in his world, the girlfriend is the most important person in the whole world.
And then, when the relationship went wrong, only then the so-called friend will call us up for conversation, outing, dinner, and such. That’s always the case. Sad, but it’s the truth.
I still remember how often Ting and I go out, but after he found his girlfriend, it has been months since he called me. I made a lot of effort in calling him and stuff, but it’s just different. Last time he’ll call me out for clubbing or dinner, but now? Whenever I call him for outing, he’ll tell me that he needs to company the girlfriend. Well, obviously Ting is not the only person, just one of the thousands whom give this kind of treatment to their friends.
Unfortunately, sometimes after falling apart, it’s difficult to patch up the relationship again. If one day when they are coming back to you after feeling bored with the girlfriends (or boyfriends), or broke up with them, and you have a girlfriend (or boyfriend), will you be free to entertain them all the time? So they deserve to be lonely *evil smile*
How about me, I heard you ask? I am not that kind of person, but I tend to company my girlfriend more because of some good reasons. First of all, she just came from Singapore so she’s not familiar with KL/Malaysia, and she doesn’t have a car yet. Furthermore, she also doesn’t have many friends at the moment so I spend more time with her. But I do ask my friends out and inviting my girlfriend to join us, so she knows my friends. But most importantly, I have been really busy doing my own things so whenever I am done at the end of the day, I was really exhausted and all I wanted to do was to rest. Am I saying that I didn’t make effort to contact my friends? Certainly not. I made the effort but sometimes when they are busy with their love lives, I just forgo any plan and just go home to rest.
Oh! Just in case if you wonder if I contracted LSD (Lazy Syndrome Disease), please rests assure that I am not and I am perfectly healthy! *grinz*
Luckily, the “being alone at Starbucks†didn’t last long because I found out a friend of mine, J, was in 1 Utama as well and she was attending the Grand Lucky Draw thing. So we went for tea while waiting for the lucky draw to start. We had a great time talking, catching up, and then when the time came, her sister, S, and a friend, E, and I went to give her moral support.
She didn’t win, but we had great time and we went for dinner at Sri Damansara. We just spent the whole evening talking about nonsense, joking about nothing in particular, and most importantly, we were just enjoying the company.
PS: Dear friends, if I haven’t been in touch with ya’ll, please rest assures that I didn’t mean to do it but I had been busy with a lot of things, and I hope you would understand and heard about the things that I had been doing. I will be contacting you guys real soon
