    Current mood: blah

    some girl at work
    Virtus Novem (12:08:38 PM): o
    Ylaenna (12:08:43 PM): p
    Virtus Novem (12:08:49 PM): HI
    Virtus Novem (12:08:51 PM): :-D
    Virtus Novem (12:08:54 PM): lunchtime, chattime!
    Ylaenna (12:08:59 PM): lol
    Virtus Novem (12:09:02 PM): blahblahblah
    Ylaenna (12:09:08 PM): bite
    Virtus Novem (12:09:19 PM): yakyakyakyakkityyak
    Virtus Novem (12:09:33 PM): i have a problem :-(
    Virtus Novem (12:09:37 PM): do you have time to talk?
    Ylaenna (12:09:44 PM): I can read
    Ylaenna (12:09:56 PM): if you type/babble, I'll be working while you do
    Virtus Novem (12:12:13 PM): :-[
    Ylaenna (12:12:24 PM): o
    Virtus Novem (12:12:45 PM): well, this is still related to the rowie issue from last week
    Ylaenna (12:12:52 PM): k
    Virtus Novem (12:13:04 PM): but i think i may be overthinking this aspect of the issue
    Ylaenna (12:13:19 PM): I do that too :-P
    Virtus Novem (12:13:50 PM): i haven't told anyone about this aspect because i'm not sure if it's important or not, and ih aven't told you specifically because it might put you in an uncomfortable position kasi you know both me and rowie
    Virtus Novem (12:13:58 PM): ok lang sabihin ko pa rin?
    Ylaenna (12:14:08 PM): sure
    Ylaenna (12:14:14 PM): di ko naman sasabihin kay rowie eh
    Virtus Novem (12:14:38 PM): right, and i'm probably just overthinking it anyway!
    Virtus Novem (12:14:49 PM): anyway, there's this girl at work
    Virtus Novem (12:15:37 PM): that i'm attracted to, more so than the general way (you know how i tell rowie na meron akong crush sa work, etc)
    Ylaenna (12:15:45 PM): yeah
    Ylaenna (12:15:46 PM): k
    Virtus Novem (12:16:11 PM): i KNOW that the whole rowie issue was NOT brought about by this girl
    Ylaenna (12:16:41 PM): OK
    Ylaenna (12:16:42 PM): :-P
    Virtus Novem (12:16:46 PM): pero as i struggle to think things through, i'm not sure if i can trust myself, my emotions and motives
    Virtus Novem (12:16:57 PM): hindi ko naman hinahabol yung babae
    Ylaenna (12:17:13 PM): uh huh
    Virtus Novem (12:17:55 PM): pero gusto ko. pero natatakot ako na i'm being very unfair to rowie, like i'm not giving her a chance. i'm afraid that, since the two events happened so close together, i'm not putting enough effort to working with rowie
    Virtus Novem (12:18:16 PM): ...working with rowie through the big issue of our religions and incompatibility
    Ylaenna (12:18:40 PM): would it be fair to say na part of you wants to break up and try something new with someone new, pero part of you is afraid that if you leave rowie you'll regret it?
    Virtus Novem (12:19:46 PM): yes and yes. but the more i think about what you just said (because i've thought of the exact same thing na), the more i feel like i HAVE to try something new before i can be sure na si rowie nga
    Virtus Novem (12:19:55 PM): partly because i feel i owe it to myself
    Virtus Novem (12:20:18 PM): and partly because i think rowie and i have differing "readinesses" about marriage
    Ylaenna (12:20:19 PM): well, you do
    Ylaenna (12:20:23 PM): and you owe it to her also
    Ylaenna (12:20:26 PM): but
    Ylaenna (12:20:35 PM): if you do that, be prepared for her not being there if you should want to come back to her
    Ylaenna (12:21:20 PM): you should remember though (at least this is what I believe) that if you regret it, and rowie doesn't want to take you back, it means it wasn't meant to be
    Ylaenna (12:21:28 PM): because if it's meant to be, it will be
    Virtus Novem (12:21:32 PM): right, and that's what i'm scared of. but i'm also scared of some things she has said before about kung hindi kami nagkatuluyan
    Ylaenna (12:21:42 PM): like what?
    Virtus Novem (12:21:52 PM): she's told me na sigurado na siya that i'm the one. if i'm not, no one else will be
    Ylaenna (12:22:12 PM): uh
    Virtus Novem (12:22:22 PM): i should rephrase
    Virtus Novem (12:22:47 PM): she said that she's sure that i'm the one for her. and if she's not the one for me and i go away, she won't find anyone else
    Virtus Novem (12:23:02 PM): that's more accurate
    Ylaenna (12:23:07 PM): ok
    Ylaenna (12:23:17 PM): but I don't believe anyone really knows that
    Ylaenna (12:23:27 PM): kahit na almost 30 na siya, a lot can happen in 10 years
    Ylaenna (12:23:34 PM): and people still hook up at over 40
    Ylaenna (12:24:00 PM): I guess that's beside the point
    Virtus Novem (12:24:16 PM): right, but i believe what she said can be true for people with beliefs and characteristics like she does
    Virtus Novem (12:24:34 PM): i think it's similar to what mom told you about marriage not being about happiness. she told me this last night too
    Ylaenna (12:24:42 PM): mom told you that?
    Virtus Novem (12:24:48 PM): sabi niya, they got married before they were both ready
    Virtus Novem (12:25:04 PM): and they kind of fell into it and just worked through the problems. it's all about commitment and compromise for them
    Virtus Novem (12:25:20 PM): and she said, maybe, God's plan for her marriage wasn't for her to be happy, but for their marriage to be holy
    Virtus Novem (12:25:34 PM): i told her, hindi bumebenta sa kin yun
    Ylaenna (12:25:58 PM): hehe, sa kin din hindi
    Virtus Novem (12:26:09 PM): she's compromising with dad about so many things because they're married already. since i'm not married yet, don't i owe it to myself to find someone with whom i won't have to compromise so much
    Virtus Novem (12:26:15 PM): ?
    Virtus Novem (12:26:36 PM): (sabi ni dad, mom's ok with no sex for life =-O)
    Ylaenna (12:26:45 PM): yiiiikes
    Virtus Novem (12:26:55 PM): no shit man
    Virtus Novem (12:27:01 PM): bihira ako magmura but i have to mura there
    Ylaenna (12:27:06 PM): lol
    Virtus Novem (12:27:47 PM): and, with rowie regarding sex, i THINK it will be good. but i have no way to be sure kasi bawal nga ang premarital sex. so i'm very scared of what might happen in that area
    Ylaenna (12:28:31 PM): right
    Ylaenna (12:28:36 PM): how do you feel about premarital sex?
    Virtus Novem (12:29:37 PM): i think it's not to be taken lightly. but serious couples should consider it, and should be entitled to it
    Ylaenna (12:30:02 PM): so... since you and rowie are serious, you wouldn't mind having sex before marriage with her?
    Virtus Novem (12:30:37 PM): i think we owe it to ourselves, as two young people considering a lifetime commitment
    Ylaenna (12:31:04 PM): eh pano, di bebenta kay rowie yan
    Virtus Novem (12:31:08 PM): yup
    Virtus Novem (12:31:16 PM): so you see why i'm scared
    Ylaenna (12:31:25 PM): you know, I think you do owe it to yourself to try other relationships
    Ylaenna (12:31:29 PM): kasi you're still young
    Ylaenna (12:31:40 PM): and you had melissa (wek wek) tapos rowie
    Ylaenna (12:31:44 PM): I don't think it's enough
    Ylaenna (12:32:01 PM): fun! fun! muna
    Virtus Novem (12:32:02 PM): i wouldn't even call melissa a relationship :-[
    Ylaenna (12:32:08 PM): kaya nga wek wek eh
    Virtus Novem (12:32:10 PM): but frodo was lots of fun
    Ylaenna (12:32:14 PM): :-D
    Virtus Novem (12:32:49 PM): :-[
    Virtus Novem (12:32:57 PM): i feel sad because...
    Virtus Novem (12:33:07 PM): i can easily remember a time when rowie was everything i wanted
    Ylaenna (12:33:18 PM): yeah
    Ylaenna (12:33:20 PM): aww, hugs
    Virtus Novem (12:33:21 PM): i remember wanting everything she was
    Ylaenna (12:33:22 PM): it happens though
    Virtus Novem (12:33:54 PM): and sometimes i wonder if i'll ever be able to make a life commitment
    Virtus Novem (12:34:31 PM): because people change, just like i did. why would i willingly put myself in a situation where i would be hindered from changing?
    Ylaenna (12:34:49 PM): well... I don't think it's about you being hindered from changing
    Virtus Novem (12:34:50 PM): read: in a relationship where i can't be who i am, or who i really want to be?
    Ylaenna (12:35:00 PM): I like to think of it as finding someone with whom you can change
    Ylaenna (12:35:15 PM): someone you look forward to tackling all those future challenges with
    Ylaenna (12:35:30 PM): commitment nga kasi eh
    Virtus Novem (12:35:31 PM): yea... si rowie yun dati :-(
    Ylaenna (12:35:43 PM): dati, before you got to know each other better
    Virtus Novem (12:35:45 PM): but she won't budge on religion, and neither will i
    Ylaenna (12:35:45 PM): much better
    Virtus Novem (12:36:37 PM): i talked to chris (my roommate) about all this last ngiht
    Virtus Novem (12:36:43 PM): he's saying the same thing
    Ylaenna (12:36:55 PM): what same thing
    Virtus Novem (12:37:15 PM): actually he's saying he's envious of me and of what rowie and i have
    Ylaenna (12:37:35 PM): ket
    Virtus Novem (12:37:36 PM): because i think he's ready to get married, and ready to compromise
    Virtus Novem (12:37:43 PM): ako hindi!
    Virtus Novem (12:37:46 PM): ayaw!
    Ylaenna (12:37:49 PM): well, there you go
    Virtus Novem (12:38:04 PM): :-(
    Ylaenna (12:38:06 PM): you are not ready, so you owe it to yourself and to rowie to not do it
    Virtus Novem (12:38:20 PM): i owe it to myself and rowie to what?
    Virtus Novem (12:38:42 PM): to not get married? to try other relationships?
    Ylaenna (12:38:52 PM): both
    Ylaenna (12:39:02 PM): especially if you wonder, what if
    Virtus Novem (12:39:11 PM): yea
    Virtus Novem (12:39:24 PM): you saw serendipity, right?
    Ylaenna (12:39:41 PM): nope
    Ylaenna (12:39:51 PM): why not!
    Virtus Novem (12:40:15 PM): well, this guy met a girl while they were both shopping for christmas presents for their respective significant others
    Virtus Novem (12:40:31 PM): they had a wonderful night and they clicked so perfectly
    Virtus Novem (12:41:21 PM): the girl says, she will write her contact info down inside a copy of some book, and if they are meant to be, he will find this book wherever it is
    Virtus Novem (12:41:45 PM): he doesn't find it, and years later, they're both engaged to be married
    Ylaenna (12:41:59 PM): uh huh
    Virtus Novem (12:42:02 PM): but little signs come up that confuse them both
    Virtus Novem (12:42:18 PM): like she finds a $5 on which he wrote his number down that first night
    Ylaenna (12:42:31 PM): aww
    Virtus Novem (12:43:02 PM): the guy's fiancee gives him a wedding present. she knows he's been looking for this book for so many years, she gives him a copy of it. and it's the copy with the other girl's info
    Virtus Novem (12:43:19 PM): (sorry, spoilers pala :-[)
    Virtus Novem (12:43:42 PM): anyway, my point is, i sometimes feel like this guy in the movie
    Ylaenna (12:43:51 PM): like there's someone else out there?
    Virtus Novem (12:44:04 PM): life laid out, ready for the future, pero teka...
    Ylaenna (12:44:15 PM): nothing wrong with that
    Virtus Novem (12:44:15 PM): yea, what if there's someone else who's meant for me
    Ylaenna (12:44:22 PM): if anything, maybe it's destiny speaking to you
    Virtus Novem (12:45:04 PM): you don't think this other girl has anything to do with what's going on, do you?
    Ylaenna (12:45:23 PM): I don't think she is the cause, no
    Virtus Novem (12:45:24 PM): i don't think she is, pero it's hard for me to say, being in the middle of it all
    Ylaenna (12:45:48 PM): because whether or not that other girl exists, the religious conflict still does
    Virtus Novem (12:46:04 PM): yea...
    Virtus Novem (12:46:24 PM): and whether or not she exists, i will still be wondering kung merong iba
    Ylaenna (12:46:41 PM): yup
    Ylaenna (12:47:12 PM): trust me, moks, after another 5 years, if you met a younger guy in your situation, I bet you would tell him the same thing
    Ylaenna (12:47:19 PM): that he shouldn't get married yet
    Ylaenna (12:47:23 PM): that he should have other girlfriends
    Ylaenna (12:47:31 PM): maybe not even girlfriends, that he should just date
    Virtus Novem (12:47:49 PM): i guess i just feel so bad, i feel like i'm betraying rowie, because i try not to think of this girl but i can't help it. and i think that's why i'm worried that she might be part of the cause somehow
    Ylaenna (12:48:17 PM): maybe give it another week?
    Virtus Novem (12:48:54 PM): :-[
    Virtus Novem (12:49:07 PM): how do i "be" during that week?
    Virtus Novem (12:49:27 PM): how should i be during that week?
    Ylaenna (12:49:49 PM): HMM
    Ylaenna (12:49:52 PM): oops
    Ylaenna (12:49:54 PM): hmm
    Virtus Novem (12:50:03 PM): tama yung HMM
    Virtus Novem (12:50:07 PM): mahirap e
    Ylaenna (12:50:12 PM): lol
    Ylaenna (12:50:30 PM): I think the best thing to do is tell her you need a week to yourself
    Ylaenna (12:50:37 PM): of course, I'm sure it will raise questions and concern
    Virtus Novem (12:50:43 PM): yup
    Ylaenna (12:50:58 PM): unless kaya mong i-fake yung week
    Virtus Novem (12:51:05 PM): i think i need to go out wit da boyz
    Ylaenna (12:51:07 PM): and not take a week off and be normal to her
    Virtus Novem (12:51:21 PM): i don't think kaya kong maging normal
    Virtus Novem (12:51:30 PM): in fact, i'm sure i can't
    Virtus Novem (12:52:09 PM): another tough question
    Ylaenna (12:52:21 PM): ha, di ka kasi normal eh :-P
    Ylaenna (12:52:23 PM): (I had to)
    Virtus Novem (12:52:24 PM): i'm convinced that taking a week to myself is the way to go
    Virtus Novem (12:52:29 PM): har
    Virtus Novem (12:53:21 PM): during this week to myself, full of me time, do you think i should entertain thoughts and/or actions for this other girl? would it be fair or right?
    Virtus Novem (12:53:31 PM): kasi nahihirapan din ako dun e
    Ylaenna (12:53:46 PM): it would be fair only if you tell her
    Ylaenna (12:53:52 PM): kung sneaky and behind her back, very unfair yon
    Virtus Novem (12:53:55 PM): ayaw ko naman siyang pagisipan, hindi naman kami magkaano, pero nandun pa rin!
    Ylaenna (12:54:09 PM): sometimes, it's nice to have someone to daydream about
    Ylaenna (12:54:16 PM): kasi di na exciting yung relationship mo
    Ylaenna (12:54:22 PM): that's normal
    Virtus Novem (12:54:29 PM): ganun ka ba kay karl urban?
    Ylaenna (12:54:32 PM): lol!!
    Ylaenna (12:54:40 PM): at the time na crush ko siya, yes
    Virtus Novem (12:54:50 PM): pero iba yun kasi he doesn't work with you
    Ylaenna (12:54:52 PM): I mean, crush ko pa rin siya, pero nung bago, talagang haaaay!
    Ylaenna (12:54:57 PM): yeah
    Ylaenna (12:55:13 PM): at work, if I find someone attractive, I squash it right away
    Ylaenna (12:55:15 PM): and don't think about it
    Ylaenna (12:55:22 PM): kasi feeling ko na unfair to frank
    Virtus Novem (12:55:35 PM): e bakit hindi ko ma-squash ito
    Ylaenna (12:55:40 PM): maybe it's a sign
    Virtus Novem (12:55:41 PM): di naman siya ang una
    Ylaenna (12:55:43 PM): serendipity :-P
    Virtus Novem (12:55:46 PM): :-\
    Virtus Novem (12:56:08 PM): i get sadder the more this makes sense :-[
    Virtus Novem (12:56:17 PM): like my heart drops a few centimeters lower
    Ylaenna (12:56:19 PM): yeah, it comes with the territory
    Ylaenna (12:56:23 PM): hug hug
    Ylaenna (12:56:32 PM): from my experience, I think it's normal to be sad
    Ylaenna (12:56:39 PM): kahit ngayon nga, I still get sad when I think about peter
    Virtus Novem (12:56:50 PM): what about peter?
    Virtus Novem (12:56:56 PM): what you once had?
    Ylaenna (12:57:00 PM): just that it didn't work out, yeah
    Ylaenna (12:57:05 PM): what could've been
    Ylaenna (12:57:16 PM): I think we could use a talk about this on the phone! >:o
    Virtus Novem (12:57:35 PM): ow
    Virtus Novem (12:57:41 PM): but i'mback to work in 15
    Virtus Novem (12:57:52 PM): :-[
    Virtus Novem (12:57:58 PM): tawag ka dito, $35/hr ka naman e
    Ylaenna (12:58:06 PM): di pwede
    Virtus Novem (12:58:09 PM): samantalang ako, nababantayan ang phone bill ng bosing
    Ylaenna (12:58:19 PM): yung cell phone bill ko at the time na puro tawag ako sa yo, sobra
    Ylaenna (12:58:20 PM): lol
    Ylaenna (12:58:43 PM): IM ulit tonight?
    Ylaenna (12:58:48 PM): I need to work din kasi eh
    Ylaenna (12:58:59 PM): been trying to work while talking pero di maka focus
    Ylaenna (12:59:14 PM): in the meantime, go ahead and daydream :-)
    Virtus Novem (12:59:27 PM): :-[
    Virtus Novem (12:59:36 PM): rowie's finally back from wherever she was...
    Virtus Novem (12:59:45 PM): i can't im tonight
    Ylaenna (1:00:11 PM): aww
    Virtus Novem (1:00:12 PM): no net connection during the hour or so that i'm home. and i'm going to san jose with rowie to sleep over at tito ron's, to take dad to the airport tomorrow
    Ylaenna (1:00:18 PM): ah
    Ylaenna (1:00:23 PM): maybe when I finish this project
    Ylaenna (1:00:26 PM): kukulitin kita
    Virtus Novem (1:00:48 PM): sana pwede akong ma-kulit
    Virtus Novem (1:01:09 PM): would you mind if i mention zak?
    Ylaenna (1:01:21 PM): kanino, kay rowie?
    Virtus Novem (1:01:23 PM): (not sure if he's an uncomfortable topic for you)
    Virtus Novem (1:01:25 PM): no, to you
    Ylaenna (1:01:29 PM): no, ok lang
    Ylaenna (1:01:38 PM): thanks for asking :-)
    Virtus Novem (1:01:44 PM): remember how you two started?
    Ylaenna (1:01:58 PM): sa telemagic ata
    Virtus Novem (1:02:15 PM): i think this girl and i have a similar thing that started this week
    Ylaenna (1:02:32 PM): uy
    Virtus Novem (1:02:40 PM): i doubt i will let it go as far as you did, and i doubt it will go that far on its own anyway,
    Virtus Novem (1:02:53 PM): yun lang
    Virtus Novem (1:03:21 PM): parang kinikilig ako, it's so stupid, and annoying, i feel liek i'm in high school, and i feel guilty feeling this way while i'm in a relationship with rowie
    Ylaenna (1:03:21 PM): kasi I figure ganito...
    Ylaenna (1:03:38 PM): when in a relationship, these things will come up
    Ylaenna (1:03:44 PM): cute girl at work
    Ylaenna (1:03:46 PM): or whatever
    Ylaenna (1:03:55 PM): when it comes up, you have a choice to let it grow in your head or not
    Ylaenna (1:04:12 PM): I figure if you let it develop, it means you shouldn't be in that relationship
    Ylaenna (1:04:21 PM): if you squash it, it means committed ka talaga
    Ylaenna (1:04:34 PM): sobrang simplified ba?
    Virtus Novem (1:05:03 PM): it makes sense
    Virtus Novem (1:05:26 PM): i guess i feel bad too, because now it's like i led rowie on
    Virtus Novem (1:05:39 PM): i don't know
    Ylaenna (1:05:43 PM): di naman a
    Virtus Novem (1:05:46 PM): i'm probably in a state of guilt in general
    Virtus Novem (1:06:02 PM): parang mga survivor guilt syndrome nung mga hindi namatay nung 9/11
    Ylaenna (1:06:14 PM): parang sa superman, guilty, guilty, GUILTY
    Virtus Novem (1:07:06 PM): :-[
    Ylaenna (1:09:32 PM): you should listen to the tom leykis show
    Ylaenna (1:09:40 PM): not sure what station he is aired on over there
    Virtus Novem (1:09:59 PM): sino yun
    Ylaenna (1:10:02 PM): or you could talk to frank :-D
    Virtus Novem (1:10:11 PM): sounds like tom manyakis
    Ylaenna (1:10:23 PM): lol

hahaha! i preferred to comment on the checkmark rather than the gurl issue at hand, i know.

the one you were chatting with was asking the question of the common windows font that has a checkmark, and it just so happened i was using that in a separate excel window that was open in my pc. soooo, i decided to give the answer. i wasn't checking my blurty or quinnzap's for the past few days and just decided to take a peek.

vavavoom! what did i find? ray in a quandary over a pretty girl? hehehe! twas just too juicy to miss.:P

but, seriously, rrray...you thinking of, um, strayin'?
