(Issue 71) Future Bf/Husband Wish List

When you are single, do you have a list of criteria for your next boyfriend? And during this period of time, you start rejecting groups and groups of guys that walk pass you, thinking that you shouldn't settle for less to achieve happiness. But a sudden unexpected attraction changes your routine of men rejection.

You couldn't help to wonder what is it in him that attracts you, especially when he possess some of No-No's in your next-boyfriend-to-be list. For my case, he is a friend of my closest friends, other than that he was perfect, and still is. But for him, and almost 50% of the AJs in Singapore, I guess I am not one the top choices of best candidate for future husband-to-be.

This made me wonder how lucky can one person be. Could it be fate that he choose to try things out with me? We had actually come across each other life so many times and I am glad we had come one full circle to be together, rather than never together. We were from the same school, went on a group holiday together in Bangkok (around two to three years ago) and coincident enough we were both in HK weeks before we were dating.

Whether it is luck, fate or hard work, I will treasure him more than anything else and I hope slowly I achieve more and more ticks on his "Wish List"/Criteria List, but at the same time still being who I really am, only because I know for sure a person can't act who he is not for his entire life and be happy at the same time.

Oh yah, I remember a quote mentioned by Morgan Freeman who acted as 'God' in 'Evan Almighty'; "When people pray for patience? Does God give them patience? No, He gives them the opportunity to be patient."

I am glad that I took the opportunity to love when I asked for it. Coming into terms with (Thankfully) Me, (glad for) Myself and I (wish he feel the same too).

Dancing to the song from: Shayne Ward - That's My Goal

You know where I come from. You know my story
You know why I'm standing here. Tonight
Please don't go. Don't be in a hurry
I'm here to make it clear. Make it right
Well I know I've acted foolish. But I promise you no more
I've finally found that something. Worth reaching for

I'm not here to say I'm sorry
I'm not here to lie to you
I'm here to say I'm ready
That I've finally thought it through
I'm not here to let your love go
I'm not giving up oh no
I'm here to win your heart and soul
That's my goal
Please don't go

You know that I need you. I can't breathe without you
Live without you. Be without you
Well I know I've acted foolish. But I promise you no more. No more

Well I won't stop believing. That we will be leaving together
So when I say I love you. I'll mean it forever and ever. Ever and ever
