Courseclerk, are you 21 this year?
Haha.. I am just teasing elektra. It will be an eye-opener if both
are you are describing each other.
I am the type of guy who loves my food. It isn't hard to make my
day.
Elektra, you like your male buddy, and thus you are looking for
signs to indicate mutual attraction. We all become like that when
we like someone.
Imagine yourself in my senario. I broke up with my ex-girlfriend
not long after I arrived in England. Being alone in a foreign
country, I had nobody to turn to in England. Then, a perfect
stranger crashed into my life, nursed my broken heart, helped me
pick up the pieces of my life, and became my best friend. Why would
I not want to take care of her?
She makes food for me. I do like the "gourmet" attention alot. She
knows it too. The only thing that I find wierd nowadays is the
increase in frequency. I am sick of hearing my friends describing
her as my "wife" because they all regard girls do not prepare food
for guys unless the girl is interested in the guy. It is a
stereotype!
The current state of affairs between she and I is nice. She makes
me food, make packet lunches for me. When she needs my company, I
will just be there. When i need her company, she will just smile
and seats beside me. We study together. We take care of each other.
The arrangement is nice. Each of us is free to date anyone else,
yet still assured of each other's company at times of need. She's a
bonus in my life now - the best gem even money can't buy.
Who in the right mind would want to disrupt this
arrangement?
Moreover, we made it clear to each other a year ago that we will
not date, ever. I told her that I look out for her well-being out
of grattitude. She told me preparing food for me is not a hint that
she fancies me. That's how things will always stay between us. I
can't see any mutual attraction.
