There are many good profiles and good photos in CS.
What if there is one profile that you really like, should you make the first move by sending a mail or flower? Or just wait until that person notices you?
I have been told by a very special friend that I need to write blogs so that more guys will get to know me and vice versa.
Why is it that my profile and my photo is not enough for guys to send me mail or flowers? Is a blog a criterion for telling everyone that you are good enough?
When we signed on to CS, we know that we will be exchanging mails and chatting with ladies and men near and far.
Does distance matter in choosing who you send flower or mails to? Does one have to say, "Geez, been thinking, I think its near impossible that we get to meet as you are far? So, its better if we just stop chatting?
For numerous reasons, many expats like me venture out into foreign countries to work and live for a number of years. Some of us, go to a country where we have family, friends and relatives who are already working there. While for most of us, we bravely say goodbye to what we have been accustomed to, with BIG dreams of a better future for our families, go forth and work in a country that we haven't even heard of.
Working and living abroad takes courage. Not everyone is cut out to be expats. Some people stay only for few months and go back, while others stay for many many years.
Being an expat means being flexible and open to new experiences and culture. Living abroad is stressful at first but we eventually adapt. It takes time, effort and being open to everything that makes the whole experience enjoyable!
With social media and the high speed internet, chatting is the easiest mode to get to know another person we meet in this website. We exchange mails, we chat on a daily basis. As days turn into weeks, then months and you are still chatting and you have come to know the person yet you have not met yet.
Is he just a friend? Or is he the ONE?
What is it that one has to put in CS so that one will receive messages and flower? Is it a beautiful photo? Or is it a wordy, descriptive profile?
We meet people and they come and go in our lives. With some we build fond memories, and with some we are happy to let them go. Nowadays, with internet and all the social media, connecting with other people seems so easy and to fool one is even easier. But despite all these, we come across genuine people.
I had the chance to meet one and for a time, I thought he was the one at that time. We chatted for months and had planned of meeting up. Then all of a sudden, he stopped. He was unreachable. So, I thought...oh well..I thought that was it.
Then one day, he came back. He was online again. He explained why he was suddenly unreachable. He got sick and was in intensive care for almost a month. I felt so guilty. All the time, I was feeling angry at him and the world....he was on sickbed.
Now, we are chatting again and trying to start anew. I hope this is it...fingers crossed....
Sometimes I cant help but wonder, why I am here, why was I born. When things go really rough and seems there is no end to trials, I do not ever see the reason why I am here. Am I here to suffer and be sorrowful? Or I am here because I am destined for something great.
I have often enjoyed reading blogs written by other people. I am amazed at how adept people are in putting their emotions, thoughts into words. I have often wondered if I can do it, if I can put my thoughts, emotions, dreams, hopes into words. I have always kept my emotions to myself. But, there is always a first time. So, this is it for me.
