Getting to know better
Friday, July 28, 2006
In a relationship, we communicate to know our partner better. As for me, I managed to have a good heart-to-heart chat with him today for 3hours. Just chilling on my couch and I listened to him telling me stories of his best mates and his own life.
He told me he can't imagine life without C. His partner wanted out 4yrs ago and took a break and decided to hang on to it after the partner took an overseas trip to sort thoughts out. Told me about his first and last love who's name is Kathy (when he was 19). From that day onwards, he sworn never to feel jealous or love someone that much.
I wish things could have turned out better for him but at the moment for him, it's more of a routine lifestyle. I asked him why he didn't want to take the job opportunity which will be base overseas, he said that would be the end of it, if he went. He wants to be with C all the time.
So today for me, I received a job offer in Singaproe but the trick is, it's a 2yr contract. I called one of our friend and told him that most likely if things turned out not so well for me in Perth, I will head back to Singapore by late August for as long as I know. The friend immediately called him up, not knowing that he was actually next to me. He answered the call in my room and I overheard him saying:" yeah, it's a sad news that if she has a job offer and she wants to go back. But that's her choice right?"
Again, I have been to about 6 interviews now since Wednesday. I do hope that I am able to get a job here soon. Things are definitely looking brighter in Singapore currently, but I feel that I still need to give Perth one last shot before heading back.
Call it whatever you want, I know I still can't bear to leave Perth. Him being part of the reason. It's easy to take up something, but hard to let it go. I know myself better. I want to feel that I can finally give it up, be it job search or relationship, in order to not regret when I look back at today's situation in years to come. One thing that I always advise my friends: Go with your guts. No matter what you do, friends and family tell you the dos and donts, end of the day, everybody still will go with their guts. So I will do the same thing this time.
