I must be really old

Wanda SG

Reading the Agony Aunt forum, is it just me or does anyone feel that most of the post are quite self-indulgent? I mean, these guys (seems to be usually the guys) are only in their 20s, and they get rejected by a gal whom they hardly know and it makes them wanna die and never want to be in love anymore. I can understand if they feel very hurt after a break-up, provided they were indeed in a real deep relationship. But looking at some of the common cases, I just feel they are so childish. Rolling Eyes I mean, there are much bigger problems in the world. Maybe I am really old, and so out of touch with the 20s. Razz

I know u meant me but do u think love should be measured by days together?
there is bigger problems in this world but most of it I can't do a thing about it, so why should I care about something I have no chance of changing.
I may seem childish to u, but I am just expressing my feeling, I felt dejected in love n want to be left alone, that's my opinion.

I can kinda understand what they are going thru...because I used to be in that stage too...well, I am still in my early 20s now...so maybe I will be in it again in the future(tho I hope not)

But I guess everyone does need a venting place every now and then, they said they dun believe in love now cos they are still hurting but I believe after some time has passed, they will fall in love again Wink

There can be no bigger problems than a broken fingernail and nothing to wear on your prom night.

Or is there? Laughing

I'm still in my twenties.

But sometimes i'm thinking the exact thing like wanda.

The wonders of our thoughts.

rainee SG

You must have led a very simple, bubble gum kinda life to think that way Laughing

charlize SG

I'm a simple person.

Yesiree. Laughing

i'm still alive Wink

and by their standards, i should be placing a rush order for a coffin and a spot in the graveyard Laughing

heck.. live life.. and if your heart gets broken, pick up the pieces and glue them back together.. and keep a lookout again, remembering the mistakes made...

now.. excuse me while i look up the number for a retirement home

It’s the initial hurt and grief talking lah… most people usually feel better after awhile. Regardless of age, we don’t lose the ability to feel, or be less vulnerable. Love gone bad hurts, no matter how old you are or what situation you’re in.

the Bear SG

but maybe, it's their first time their hearts were broken... it feels like they wanna die...

but we do learn don't we? Wink

Wanda SG

Yet you can tahan being a mod there? Very 'pei fu' you.

Wanda SG

I've no doubt they will fall in love again, coz that's what many crave for in their 20s. When they are married, then they wish to be free again...maybe I'm speaking for myself. Hahaha... (dun let my hubby see).

the Bear SG

hmmm... hey wanda, has it been 7 years? Laughing

precipice SG

i can confidently say you are speaking for a lot of people.

Wanda SG

No, far from it, not even half. Embarassed

the Bear SG

ahh... to have someone to love and be with... isn't it wonderful? Very Happy

i think i really am old.. or at least, old-school Wink

a_splash SG

harlo choco, long time no chat Wink

ya, agree.....its normal lah for the hurt and pain from rejection mah.....even if its not love...other things that we hope very much to hv and could hv we would also hv heartache...more heartache when its L O V E !

Of course, you are entitled to voice your opinion and I shall respect that entitlement.
