Thoughtless
On my way to meet a friend yesterday, I was walking at the sidewalk of the mall. It was a busy afternoon full of cars. Then there was this red Honda City that I saw. Its rear windbreaker fell (accidentally) while making a right turn. Although the driver stopped a bit, the driver didn't seem to realize what had happened, so he continued on. A taxi was right behind him, seeing that the City continued, he followed. A second later, he heard and felt a huge snapping sound from underneath his tires. The spoiler had broke from being run over by the taxi. Believe it or not, the driver of the City just continued on. Everyone from the people in the sidewalk to the security was trying to get the City's driver's attention. I was sure the driver was a foreigner, because he was driving like one -- driving manners, and all. Also it was because he dismissed the incident naively.[ Ok, feel loosened? That wasn't the story of this post. That was just a "time killer". ]
Over the years I suddenly remembered a phrase that hurts a girl a lot. You should use (or not use) this whenever you want to make a strong impression that you do not care, or you want to cause chaos in your relationship. It goes something like..
"You know, I question your sincerity for making the same mistake twice"
Goodness, this is the most tactless comment I've heard from a guy. And do you know what the reason this was said to a girl? Because she was chatting with her best gal pal on the phone. Previously, she apologized to her guy for the same reason (forgetting to call). Now I know we all make mistakes.. but to say exactly THAT to a girl -- what the f__k.. IS IT SO NECESSARY?! My friend was really hurt upon hearing those words from her guy. And you know what the really admirable thing my friend did? She dismissed it. Out of basic human concern, she simply dismissed it. Others could have used that to start world war III with her guy, but she didn't.
In reality however, since when was it a sin to forget to call? You have your freedom as an individual, relationship or no.
I guess I can't blame some guys for being so perfect..
