In my mind
At NYC, I made a promise to myself, that after the chocolate cheesecake and the tiramisu, I was going to let go of what happened in NJ, to forget and forgive about the phonecalls. After 2 weeks of time, the status is "in good progress". However, the thing is, I just don't get it. It's like meeting another person, a complete stranger, despite the fact that we were on the phone almost every week before that. I freaking don't get it. Anyway, I am not going to look into it since there is not a point of doing. It doesn't worth the hassle. One needs to look forward and move on. And that would be me.
The other night, I had a chance to talk to Cici, my ex-vball teammate. It was probably because of the environment and one dose of alcohol, I expressed something that I don't usually say it out loud. But by expressing it, I realized the picky side of me. In the aspect of looking for the other half, there were check boxes, the so-called criteria. It includes age, height, religion, communication, personality, and most importantly my impression of the person.
Six check boxes.... that's a lot.
Then there is a person I knew who has shown interest but I completely ignored because the latter 3 boxes were left blank. Am I not picky?
After a few days, that person from far far away, told me that he hasn't changed a bit after all these years. He reminded me that it has been 8 years since the last time we met. Not that I am very interested, it sounds pretty delightful. However, isn't it a bit diffcult for people to believe that this can actually happen? That's why I am under an impression that he's coming back for a revenge.
Because of what happened at the States, all of a sudden I don't have direction. Before that I was so determined to move to Canada upon graduation. I planned for my future, my career, my destination. Right now, feels like I am at a crossroad again.

so what is your mind now? haven't met that person for 8 yrs.
... I remember I once read an article in the newpaper many years ago. it s actually a letter to editor asking what she should do because she came across her first bf and kept thinking of him again even she had another bf at that time already. The writer replied , people tended to remember the bad things of the present bf/gf and remember the good things of the ex-.
Maybe this story is not directly related to your sitaution.
but I am wondering that guy, saying "I love you", just because he 只知道現在/剛剛散了的女友的不好, 而不斷幻想一D 未開始過的感情有多美好..加上他沒有見你已經8 年, 我覺得如果我沒有見一個人8 年, 我只會用 miss you, 不會用love you, 因為你唔知這個人變了多少, 如果還用8 年前的他/她來作標準. 好似不是太恰當.
dunno what i am talking...
it seems that i expressed it in a negative way... hum.. i am not neutral anymore haha.
but will support all ur decision anyway~
I share the same feeling as you. Eight year is a long time and a person must have grown accordingly due to the different experience in life. And the person he "loves" doesn't necessarily be the same person he loved 8 years ago. It just doesn't make sense to me. But he will realize, once he sees and deals with me in person. Things are going to be different.
This is not being pessimistic, this is just the reality.
