Bruh... A7 is too much. Imagine writing 15 full pages of words on A7 when it took me 5 hours for A4....

Oh no I'm not gonna dig my memories on that 15 pages of cringe essays 😂 I'll give a summary or an idea of it.
So it begins with sharing what I feel about our experience together.
Then what I think about her. (Fyi I did not touch a single hair of that lady, proud of myself being able to stay gentleman til the end. But u know as a guy we all wanted to have something if you know what I mean)
After that I asked her questions on what she thought of me.(Not expecting a reply) Just to let it out.
Then proceeds to answer questions I couldn't answer when she was drunk.
Then throughout the letter it's filled with thanks and grateful for the experience.
Last few pages would be ABIT nagging like don't do stuff that affects health. Do this do that. Then told her it's not her fault for any of these since she always apologized to me when we were hanging out. Or should I say when I was babysitting a stranger. Well I admit I'm a simp hah.
Anyways it ended with thanks again and with some farewell gifts. (Some of my home cooked meal and snacks for her pets)
Still simping till the end. God I'm such an idiot.

I won't share the song directly here because I'd like to stay anonymous here 😂 we'll just let fate decide and see if you can stumble upon my song on YouTube/tiktok/Instagram by chance. Hahaha it won't be that good cause my singing sucks and my playing skills are all just average  Joe.

Thanks for the salute. It's was like a mountain got lifted up from my shoulders after I sent it. Occasionally my mind goes argh I should've or shouldn't wrote that yadiyada. But still I was relieved. Still both glad and regret at the same time 😂 glad that I'm not that much stressed anymore and regret that I'm such a cringe HAH WHO THE HECK SENDS LETTERS NOWADAYS

Thanks for sharing the summary of yr love letter with us. Let me tell u something... U may think that writing letters is cringey but it actually sets u apart from most guys in modern dating. Why? Coz some guys would rather appear nonchalant n put in as little effort as they can when pursuing girls. I hope that this experience won't demotivate u from putting the same amount of effort in pursuing other girls in future. The right girl will definitely know how to appreciate yr efforts. Always remember that rejection is God's redirection.

This is a comparison of paper sizes. A7 is much smaller compared to A4... you are not a detail-focused person.

The hard questions asked.

It is a leak — a "past year life examination paper." She came into your life and handed you that document. Whether you saw it or not, that’s up to you. But it was there.

The same hard question — in fact, a real-life question — how would you face it when asked again? Avoid it? Stay silent again? Or will you get yourself ready with a solid answer the next time you're asked the same?

There’s a quote that says, “It is good to ask questions about things we do not understand. But be reminded — asking the same question again shows we may be taking things for granted.”

A similar analogy — “It’s okay to make mistakes the first time. Everyone has their first time. But to make the same mistake over and over — the shame is on ourselves.”

Life decision-making sometimes feels like answering past year exam papers. No doubt, the questions are different each year. But the major structure of the paper remains the same — the tested concepts and knowledge areas are more or less repeated.

Even though the past paper comes from someone else’s life, it still gives you valuable insight into how to prepare for your own “life examination.” So, there was no loss in the time spent. It was not wasted — you exchanged that time to gain insight from someone else's past exam, while also gaining awareness of the exam you're about to face in your own life.

Oh my goodness I apologize for that. You've seen through me with just a few comments 😂 I totally flipped the size of paper lol. In my mind as the number is smaller it's smaller and the number is bigger then it's bigger lol. Thank you for the clarification hahahaha.

And wow I did not expect to view it in that perspective. Thank you so much. I'm still learning wow. Thank you so much for your wisdom. Totally agree with what you've said. The more I read the better I feel. This is amazing 🫠 this really gave me a new perspective.

Well, probably it's because the culture on dating has changed so much that things are just "easier" for people now. And many took granted of it. Imagine 30-40 years ago how people could connect with each other. Only letters, therefore people in the past appreciate time spend together. I'm not saying now people don't, it's just that many had taken things for granted with such each access with the help of technology 🫠
Originally I wanted to send a long message. But I decided on a letter instead. I forgot the ain reason but yeah, this is the result haha.
And Indeed, a friend and the internet told me the same.
"Sometimes failure is God’s protection, and success is His preparation. Trust the process."
My mind is getting clearer day by day. It could be just what it is.
Thank you so much 🙌🏻

Ramiade! You definitely should write to your girl 😂 I mean why not.


Silver hawk...I totally mistaken the sizes of paper omg. Hahahahaha but oh wow... Only 2 A4 pages 🫠 I guess 15 is really long 😂 I'm not really sure how much she read cause her ex kinda kept it away and who knows how much he read or disposed of. Oh Well It ain't my problem anymore HAHA

Ooooouuuppphhhh
That really hits the nail on the head. Straight up truth and facts. Really applies.
Probably a 50/50 for me. But definitely 100% for the lady as she's just broken up with her ex due to cheating. And I just happened to be there.
I should save this for later 😂
Thank you my man 🙏🏻

Edit: but the trails of wreckage is 100% on both sides lol. Truly such a sad thing to see everyday in nowadays age...

I totally agree with u on this part. Now guys can just easily send a good morning/ good night text to 50 different girls 🤣And when I see couples dining together, they'd rather play with their phones than talk to each other 😅

Yeah that's totally stupid. Like why would you even go on dates if you'd end up using your phones. I've experienced a few that were like that, I quickly finished whatever we were doing and left 😅

That's why some ppl suggest coffee dates for first dates. But there are also ppl who would argue that coffee dates are too low effort from the man's side. It's like he's not trying to make the date special at all 🤷🏻‍♀️🙈

First dates shouldnt be high effort. I also prefer first dates to be coffee dates.

Also no pick up. And at shopping centres, easy to go and leave.

2nd and 3rd dates, if it happen, I will up the ante.

If she cannot accept my lifestyle of being frugal, sorry she is not the one for me.

There are more than one way to show effort. Going on expensive dates is just being materialistic..

You can show effort by traveling to see her, hear her out, cuddle and do nothing, cook for her, indulge her with her favourite food every now and then, always make time for her.

Are they really people who argue that?! Well thanks, no wonder I found my bf relatively easily.... The others lowering the bar for me lol

Half joke aside, I agree that the first dates don't and should not mean much. It's literally meeting a stranger who's more than likely not to work out, why make it even harder than it already is? There's so many more other ways to make memories...

For example on my 3rd meetup with my now-bf, we had a dinner and were strolling nearby after. I tripped on an uneven surface and he was frantically waving his arms around but keeping social distance with me, I could almost hear his thoughts, "OMG DO I CATCH HER WHEN SHE FALLS BUT WHAT IF I 'HARASS' HER"

He sure scored a lot of brownie points that night, it's one story I like to tell others laugh.gif what we had for dinner and how much was it? Don't remember and I don't care.

@men: not all ladies appreciate social distancing. I'm generally conservative with platonic friends (including potentials) so I find physical intimacy before officiating the relationship too much for me. I know this is untrue for some ladies and they might even find you playing safe as a turn-off.

Lol thanks for sharing this interesting story with us. For a min there, I thought u went out with him during the pandemic when u mentioned "social distancing" 🤣 Regarding physical contact, it's indeed a tricky issue. Some guys just wanna play safe whereas some girls might assume he's not interested in her. This is the reason why rship coaches advise girls to break the touch barrier first if they're interested in the guy like touching his arm.

That was in 2021 so it was still during the pandemic where there were months we couldn't meet up and had to use discord to watch/play stuff together and awkward video calls where we'd accidentally show off my nose hairs..

Yeah I agree it's indeed more socially appropriate that the ladies play a bigger part in breaking the physical barrier, otherwise it can be risky for men as they may not be aware their attempt for intimacy may be seen as harassment by the potential partner.

Ah, modern courtship — a delicate dance of timing, tone… and unspoken telepathy. 🔮
Initiate too soon, and you’ve overstepped.
Wait too long, and you were never interested.

Somewhere between “too much” and “too passive” lies a window you were supposed to see — without being told.
No signs, no signals, no certainty.
Just vibes. And intuition.

Don't know we are supposed to pity the man or the woman?
