I tried, honestly I did try hard enough...

..maybe i was too harsh on him.
..maybe I'm too critical, demanding, picky, choosy or whatever.
..maybe he's testing me now.


So I thought why not give it another chance..

..but then he called me (over the phone), "Babe!" BABE????!!!!!!



Not once, twice.




All hope is gone I guess. *knockforeheadonthewall* Duh2x!

How to guarantee that you won’t be out for a second date with a MATURE lady…

Say, the two of you are ‘sorta matchmake’ by a concern friend of yours, with your respective blessings.

Given the distance in the locations, you, all the way from KL, agreed immediately (1 Bonus point here– don’t waste anymore time with IM, SMS or phone calls) for a meet up after office hour on a work day, in Kajang. Extra bonus point for you!

However,

1. when you arrived late, blaming the traffic jam (nothing new there!) and in such a bad mood…*who could you blame?* It spoilt the (date) mood too – DEDUCT 1 point

2. when you asked direction from parking place to the restaurant without giving your coordinate, must you blamed her for giving the wrong directions and thus making you ran around in circle? After all, she’s not familiar with the shopping complex too – DEDUCT another point

3. when you barged ahead, I repeat - on the first date, about getting married straight away… DEDUCT another point

4. when you asked details about her car and housing loans and then mentioned about your limo-for-rental business and how you take a bank loan using the matchmaker name since you name has been blacklisted which mean blablablah…DEDUCT 10 points & ..

*Quick2x! Run for cover!!*

How not to be a gentleman..

..in asking for a woman's hand in marriage.

Say, you're a divorce male, and also an upstanding man in the community, in your 50s and the woman in question is a spinster in her mid 40s. You're shy thus when people starts 'matchmaking' the two of you together, you encouraged them by saying, "Yes, do proceed..."

So these middle persons, mind you - there's not only one but 3 altogether, did ask the lady subsequently, whether she's interested and yes, she's (Why not? Here is a 'good catch'!)! At the same time, you started to pass by the house in the evenings, making eyes at each other during community gatherings - it's obvious and people do noticed. Alas, being the man in your position, you've admirers, one or two, who also like to be your wife and thus the start of bad-mouthing others...

Which is still okey until you suddenly announced that you're getting engaged to another lady from the same community!

It boggled my mind on thinking how dare you started something, making the lady to start hoping and everything and to hear about the engagement news from a third, totally unrelated party...

How not to succeed in attracting the fickle-minded opposite sex..

..who is old and mature enough to know what she wants..

Dude, after a couple of meets up for drinks, you:

1. asked her out again by saying: jom gi dating nak?
Ans: Euwwwww…you think I’m still in my 20 or something?

2. sakit leher & tengkok so asked her to picit your leher?
Ans: Who do you think you are???!!!

3. asked her to pick you up (not once).
Ans: Hellloooo, if you can not be a gentleman, then can you please act like normal person? Each drive his/her own car la…

4. asked her out at 1030pm on a working night?
Ans: Dude, seriously, your timing is totally messed up!

5. started to use ‘my dear’ (still acceptable since maybe you’re the product of Brits education but I noticed from last time that only the old folks that I met up at the newsagent, co-op and such who used such endearment!) but ‘hye darling’??
Ans: Seriously dude, I wonder whether there’s hope for you yet?

6. signed up at the end of your msg with your ‘title’.
Ans: You think I’ll be easily sway by that? You’re dead wrong! *play music Shania Twain's 'That does not impress me much'*

P/s: Am i choosy or what? Huh!
