The Amateur Writer

If you have been hanging out with me, especially a bit too much, you would probably come across a couple of terms that I usually use. Especially if we're talking about our respective love lives. Over the years, my friends and I have come up with a couple of theories and today, I would like to share some of them with you. I have to admit though, some of them are pure GENIUS!

Mistress Syndrome

-AKA the other woman disease. People who suffer from this tendency will find themselves having problems to commit. In fact, even if they do enter a relationship; they will find themselves cheating on their partner. Usually the person with the Mistress Syndrome is aware of her behavior but finds it thrilling to be in an affair. This disease can be dangerous especially if you are thinking of finding THE ONE and settle down. People who have this syndrome have a fatal attraction to bad boys and find nice ol' guys plain. In fact, these people are known for being innocence-destroyers.


The Face Thing

This is by far my most over-used theory. I believe that suitable couples have similar facial features. It could be the cheekbone or their smiles. In fact, this theory is scientifically proven. To actually know whether you and your partner are perfect for each other, get a certified face expert (ME!) or just a very observant friend to analyze you and your partner. I am not saying you have to be from the same race or ethnicity because this theory applies to all! For example, I could easily be with a Black guy and the face thing will still apply. Over the years I have analyzed many couples' faces and I can actually tell whether they will last or not. I just love to do this at weddings but kids, you can even do it at home! Just observe your parents' faces and see whether they matched. My parents are the first couple I ever analyzed and the similarity is quite apparent. Let's say you analyze your parents' faces and they do not match; don't worry...these similarities can be subtle. You're lucky if you can come across very obvious ones. I can totally explain this from a scientific point of view but that will take too much space for this section. Let's just move on.

The Pool Concept

- AKA clarity concept. If you actually go back to my older posts, I actually talked about this one. Basically this one talks about your decision making skills, in terms of relationships la. There are three pools and each pool have different clarity and depth.

1) Swimming Pool : crystal clear. Not much depth. The clarity factor here applies to what type or characteristics you want in a partner. The details can be overwhelming and this is the hard bit, the depth factor here, applies to the availability of candidates. Seeing that a swimming pool isn't very deep, it means that the candidates of your choice is scarce. Basically what I'm trying to say, you're picky la.

2) Lake: murky. medium depth. I would say "lakes" are rational people. You sort of know what you want but you still have some space to let it be spontaneous. The availability of candidates is more than the pool one, obviously.

3) Deep Blue Sea: Dark. Barely clear. DEEP. I usually think people who are "seas" are fun-loving people. They're up for anything and would try everything. If you're a "seas" girl, you're going to have problems finding the one because you are considering THE WHOLE MANKIND! You don't know what you want and what's best for you. This can be VERY difficult. Good Luck.

FYI: I'm a swimming pool. ;p


JUMP Theory

-The jump theory illustrates your readiness to enter a relationship. This one too, has a water imagery. Imagine you're about to go scuba diving and the sea is the relationship; how prepared are you to jump into it?

There are three types of divers:

a) The OVER-prepared diver. Basically you put on every diving gear known to mankind (hell, bring an extra oxygen tank while you're at it) before you diving in and we're only talking about scuba diving in Pangkor here! The next thing you know, it's about the jump. Let's just say...you didn't actually do it. Indecisiveness is your problem here.

b) The Prepared diver. Hey, it's just scuba diving at Pangkor reef; you just put on those goggles thingies with that tube sticking out; put on your swimming suit and you're good to go. So, do you make the jump? Yep, with a tiny thought first la. But you're good.

c) The Excited diver. Forget goggles, you probably don't even have your swimming suit on. Excited divers made the jump before the instructor says so. Very dangerous and can be risky. But you gotta love excited divers, they're all about fun!

Louis Vuitton Concept

-This is a very new concept introduced by my good friend, Tim. (And you thought, it's by a girl.)

Tim quotes, "Every girl is a Louis Vuitton handbag. The only difference is whether you're an original or a knockoff."

If you don't get this metaphor, (aiyoo, try to keep up la) Tim is just basically talking about the woman's pride in a pursuit of a relationship! It's either you can get a guy by the classy way (the original la) or by tramping around like some slut (knockoffs!). Mind you, if you want to be an original; kena la jugak ada sale one in awhile. If you keep on costing a couple grands through out your life; you can only find yourself being the last season's fashion. Sad but true. So girls, THINK LV! Don't care la if you're the monogrammed one or the studded one ke apa; whatever it is...do it with class yo!


SO these are my theories of the day. I probably make another list after some experimenting. Have a great night and sleep tight! Ciao~!
