hearing aid: 8mm // liar

was it just two days ago i sat at a table with some really old and wise ladies who told me how to keep a relationship going is to play the guy like a kite? "release with the wind and when it's flying high, catch and pull back just that little to keep the tension tight," they said.

i've known him for 7 over years now. 'maybe it's time for us to get together and try?'
i haven't replied because i'm trying to find the nicest way to say 'NO'. (oh yes, i'm positive about not giving this one another go).

would you prefer:

A. last time we tried it was a disaster, so i think i'll have to pass.
B. i've come to a conclusion that with friends, it's best we stay friends.
C. i'm not interested in you that way anymore; that was a long time ago.
D. how's about we check up on this in 5 years' time?
E. (maybe you can come up with something? or pray that he reads my blog. haha.)

let's be honest here, the only relationship i'll look into trying again is no longer on the market.

a convo with my girlfriends would go like this,
'give it 5 years, maybe he'll be a bigger better catch?'
'he's probably better with age too, most guys are anyway.'
'5 years huh?'
'5 years. good enough for you to study, graduate with a degree, meet plenty of eligible, hot -
'hot. HOT.'
'- men -'
'angmoh men'
'- and come back to see if he's gotten fat, uglier or stupid.'
'he was already stupid for letting go.' (everyone will say this to their friend, because it's a line that actually works.)
'and will grow a big wart on his knee.'
'GROW A BIG WART ON HIS KNEE?'
'that the first thing that came to mind la. and val's like not bothered by a big wart on his knee right?'
'last i checked, he doesn't have big wart on his knee. but please... don't forget the big, HUGE, ginormous fact - he's OFF THE MARKET.'
'off the market doesn't mean you can't try anyway.'
'you're asking me to steal him?'
'not steal, commandere.'
'oh yes, savvy captain jack.'
'savvy?'
'didn't you watch pirates?'
'oh yeah... not steal, commandere val.'
'i am not going to steal him, or commandere him.'
'oh maybe, maybe, the happy couple will break up!'
'eh.'
'yeah! maybe in 5 years, they'll split.'
'no no no, i said i want him to be happy - THAT'S not happy.'

ladies, you can't say things like that to make your girlfriend happier, though it's the thought that counts, it's still. not. a. nice. thing. to. say. (: loves and hugs.
