Hah!

An old friend contacted me recently and I'm amused by the things he had been interrogating me on (through SMS).

One of the most irritating question which he had asked, was what are the qualities I look for in a man? And the conversation goes on like this: -

L: Is that really important?

C: Yes...I recall you being an outdoor active girl, nice, sweet & pretty.

L: So? Anyway people change. Even if one is nice & sweet, that doesn't mean it helps in a relationship.

C: Why do you say that?

L: Why do you keep asking questions?

C: Cos I like girls whom are nice & sweet.

L: Bullshit.

C: ??? What's wrong...

L: Why talk about the qualities of the other person? I realized that is not important these days, on what kinda qualities I am looking for. But it is what the other person is looking for. U mentioned I am nice & sweet, so??? The other person might not even take these as good qualities.

C: Why not?

L: It's all about the differences and whether both of you can deal with each other on it.

C: Meaning?

L: You can be nice and sweet. But the other person thinks you are not intellectual, or one that does not read books and cannot play word games with him and disregards you as being a ideal mate?

C: Then that's his problem.

L: Well...we broke off. But I do agree with you, that's his problem. So stop asking me what kinda qualities I like in a man!!!
