Analogy

I am 20. And I’ve never been in love. Read: NEVER.

Pathetic? Well, I myself don’t know about it. Sometimes it is pathetic but most of the times, I kind of proud of it. I’m not ready yet. That’s the reason why I remain single till today. Well, plus I need to give full concentration on my studies. Hehe. Such a lousy excuse.

Being the only person without love experience, other people tend to assume that I’ll be doomed the day I’m in my 1st relationship. Naah… I don’t think so. I learn a lot about love from my surroundings. And I’m getting good grades in the subject. Haha.

Example? Well, I can tell one.

Before this, I’m kind of annoyed with a rule on love which reads: Never date your friend’s ex. Your friend will be deeply hurt.

I was like ‘Duhh?? You can’t fall for your friend’s ex even though she is perfectly happy with a new man right now? in what sense she will be getting hurt?’ and ‘What if I never knew that he is her ex and love suddenly, innocently knocks on my heart’s door?’ Chewahh… haha!

When I share my point of view with my friends about the rule, they’ll just say ‘you don’t understand the feeling!’ and I’ll immediately fumed up cause I thought I understand enough. Yea, right!

A week ago, I registered myself at a new hostel in my Uni. The old hostel of mine is handed over to the boys. So, my old hostel became my ex-hostel.

I love my new hostel. Well, everything’s new. The facilities are even better. My room is like an apartment. I love it!

After a few days, I followed a friend to her room. Her hostel is next to my ex-hostel. I could see the boys walking freely around my ex-hostel, on the path I usually step my feet on. They’re eating at the cafĂ©- the one I used to dine in. and so on.

Suddenly, I could feel some kind of hatred within myself. I felt like kicking the boys ***es. I hate seeing them there! That was mine!!!

Weird, uh? At that particular moment, I truly understand the feeling of a person when her/his friend dating her/his ex.

This type of lesson is called analogy. A similarity in some aspects found between two examples. It’s a process of reasoning between similar examples.

Hahaha.
