I woke up this morning feeling a bit lost.
I don't know what to do for Christmas and New year. Sigh.
It's a weird feeling. Like I'm wasting my life but I refuse to do any work.
Maybe I should go back to bed.
Sigh.

Love, Actually (I'm also not sure)
HAHAH!
Broken english.
Anyways, so many things have happened recently that made me wonder about what makes up a relationship?
Love?
Responsibilities?
Respect?
Trust?
Mutual understanding? or the so-called 'chemistry' that makes 2 ppl click naturally
What are the causes of 'affairs'? What are the causes of such 'fatal' attraction?
My guess is that the first thing that occurs in any relationship is the attraction part. Scientifically speaking, attraction is all about hormones and different chemicals in our bodies.. From what I know, it's the scent or whatever thing that comes out of one person that makes another attracted to him/her. Siblings usually have the same scent (because they have the same genes) and therefore, they hardly attract one another. (Because, "opposites attract, like repel")
Blah blah blah...
So what happens when one person is attracted to another? Is there love? Does love come before or after the attraction?
Then how do they stay together? Then responsibility, respect and trust, etc all come into play.
I've watched enough TV dramas to know that feelings can change. But then, do the feelings really change? Or was it a bad mistake from the start?? (Hmm, I just came up with this. And I'm feeling quite proud of myself.)
Question 1: Should 2 people who know longer like each other remain together?
Question 1a: What if only one of them has a change of feelings?
Question 2: How would you know the 'other person' is the correct one? And not another mistake?
HAIZ, such tough questions.. I'm having a writer's block.
My humble opinion is to simply let nature take its course.
I read an article in the Sunday Times and it was about women and how the fact that they tend to live longer than men makes them more prone to dying alone. It's really a very sad fact and while it's not their choice, I feel that it is kinda unfair that women have to suffer alone. Of course, there are men who out-live their wives.. but the naked truth is that whoever is left behind suffers..
This theory will only hold for couples. For those swinging bachelors and spinsters, I'm not too sure.. Would they have gotten used to the loneliness by then?
The bottom line is really to just make this lifetime as enriching and fulfilling as it can get..
Since no one really knows the correct way to live and love.
