Status: Happy With What I have and Who I am With
Who said you cannot be single when you're in a relationship? Who said you cannot enjoy being in a relationship?
I've always been curious of what life got ahead of me If I wasn't in my status right now. I have heard many heart problems, different stories and used to giving advices. Some often thought I have gone through different relationships, encountered those problems and SINGLE. Well, admittedly, sometimes, I wish I was, thinking I could be better or I can do more things freely. I thought sometimes of getting envious of those who could freely go out with friends without worrying too much of a boyfriends who's waiting for a call from you, or checking up on you most of the time. But at the end of the day, I still get this point that it's no big deal at all. Whether I am single or in a relationship, it all lies in my hands, I mean, happiness. After all, I am obviously enjoying each day with the man-of-my-life-to-be.
We are a group of four gerls in the office - four different kind of people, or should I say, women: Marian- the newly-arrived and the youngest among the group, said she never had a boyfriend yet; Vine- the boyish type, can't moved on from her relationship way back in college; Ate Pen - oh, she just got her heart broken a few months ago, but I have this hypothesis that she and the guy we never knew got back together again recently. Oh, not sure, though; And I, happily in a relationship for nearly four lovable years now. Is our status enough to see the difference we have? Oops, I guess not. But that is what lead me into writing down this little article. Curiosity knocked!
Many times I wonder what could I be doing if I didn't have this lovely man in my life. He's not the first man I've been with, but I call him the last. I wonder how my life would turn into if I wasn't with him.
Being single, like most people say, is being free. You've got the chance to do and have almost everything the way you'd like to. Single and ready to mingle, as they say. You have the freedom to befriend anyone you think is interesting enough but very respectful. You can go out and date them. You need not to worry on what time are you going home (except about your parents who's waiting for you, of course) or who's gonna send you home. No boyfriend to think of calling on the phone to tell where you are or who you are with. No worrying about someone who might get jealous of you and some guy friends. It seemed to me that all you need as a single is a power of being friendly enough and a good-to-go personality to be going out with some group of girlfriends or some guy friends, plus a pocket money to bring you places. Just be sure they're safe enough for a friendly dates and night outs, and that they're really just a 'friendly' hang outs.
Vine's a kind of boyish. In fact, people often mistakenly find her a 'tomboy'. She had a boyfriend, I think once or twice, but oh, let's not talk about her love story. She wouldn't want to even hear or think about it anymore. Apparently, she just had a 'date', as what I call it, today with her friend Rapz. I don't think something's going on with the two of them though I tease her more often than not. Referring to her post, he's her 'gala buddy'. The first time I met this guy was when we got to Divi, I think about two weeks ago. They were together, with me and prince. They spent the day together again mall ratting at MOA today. I think I've seen the guy in most of Vine's gala pictures (haha). I think Rapz is available most of the time, probably that's why Vine could easily invite him to go places with her. Hmmmm. I don't think they match, though. Bad thought! haha
Marian is a simple lady living with all the freedom she could enjoy. Being so young, said she never had a boyfriend yet. I barely know her yet and her story, but this choosy young woman enjoys her life by some night outs during her college years, as she say. She's used to being allowed to stay out late at night. Good for her, though. She said she had some suitors, but maybe the young mind's just not into being a relationship. Not yet for now. No pressure on her, though. She's enjoying her young adult years.
Ate Pen, however, is a shy type and secretive. A Maria Clara she is, being so modest and simple. Funny that we never knew he had a boyfriend until she talked about the break up which really made her upset. We never saw her so stressed about her own life until the break up came. All the while we thought that she's enjoying her single life, not knowing that somebody's watching over him also. Though we had the idea since someone's always ringing her phone to check on her and we used to tease her with their terms of endearment 'mahal', she never admitted having a boyfriend. Until one day, she unsuccessfully kept her tears, it just all fell down like somebody had just died and we were surprised to know that the person she used to call 'mahal' cheated on her. For months, she tried her best (and I knew it, somehow) to avoid the phone calls. NOt sure if she's still doing that until now. But we used to tease her to another guy, one of our 'braders' from EnergyFM, who admitted liking her so much. Don't know if this guy's doing things for her, but I know he's much into my friend.
And your honor, in a relationship for nearly four years now. And how is it being in a relationship? For me, it depends on your partner and the way you both handle your relationship. Having a boyfriend isn't stressful enough to get tired of your everyday ways and means. Not unless you stress yourself on the things that's not supposed to be a big deal. For four years, I've got a man who makes sure he goes out with me wherever I go whenever I wanted and needed to. A person who checks out on me all the time, sometimes more than my parents do. Someone who keeps on reminding me on the things I should not forget like having my medicine when I'm sick, waking up early to avoid getting late at work, calls up, ask for a reason for staying in the office late at night and keeps asking at what time I'm going to finish; someone who picks me up and sends me home; who protectively keeps on ringing and checking out on me when I go out with friends after work; who jealously ask who I am with; who constantly reports on where he's at and most of the time, what he is doing or just about to do; who usually visits my pages and read every post I make, sometimes making a big deal out of it; A man who calls me every hour of the day without any reason but just wanted to talk to me. We've been like that for nearly four years now. But neither of all of that stress me at all! In fact, I find it sweet, even sweeter each day, never irritates me. Oh yes, I do, sometimes, sorry! But not to the point that I'd hang up the phone. I love more having him around. He's protective but I love the way he guards me. He's jealous but he just don't want to lose me. He cares for me a lot. He worries a lot when I say I don't feel well. I may find the things he does so repeatedly done sometimes, but I don't want him to stop doing his routines. I want him to check on me all the time, it makes me feel secured. I love the way he constantly reminds me of things, it shows how he cares. And it doesn't matter how many million times a day he tells me he loves me, it's my favorite line.
Having a boyfriend doesn't really mean being stuck only with him all the time. I still have time going out with friends, though I am not really used to night out at bars, for example. I can still enjoy movies with them, go places with them, share some girly stuffs with them. Therefore, I am still free. I can have guy friends, as well. Just no dating with them alone. I don't need to date them, any way.
Being in a relationship is not really as hard as many thought. It's all about giving and taking. It's just all about honesty and trust. Who said you will never enjoy your years when you're in a relationship? I hang out with my girlfriends, with my boyfriend still keeping me company. There were even times he pretends to know about all the female stuffs me and my girlfriends are talking about. Or oftentimes, he pretends not to hear anything at all, but still laughs with us. haha. It's just about openness.
How your life is going to be still depends on how you live your life and do things and how you view them. Happiness and contentment shouldn't rely on who you are with. It's on how you deal with the person you are with. For me, being single is just close to being in a relationship: you enjoy the same things, maybe just on different weights. After all, everything has its advantages and disadvantages. It always depends on yourself.
Therefore, whether you are single or in a relationship isn't really a big deal. The enjoyment comes from you, not from the people around you. All you've got to do is to find fulfilment in every thing that you do with every person you are with. Life is better when we've got so many people around us. Life is the best when you've got one person who stays beside you when the sun goes up and until the moon rises. After all, all women will find that one man who's going to bring them to the altar. Just that, mine already arrived.
Life's no different whether you're single or in a relationship. As long as you know how to stay happy. ♥☺
