2016

We are told to cover our true emotion from the public for the sake of good names and reputation but we keep doing it to the people who matter to us as well

But who told you to cover your emotion? Is it your parents, when they first took you out to that restaurant and told you to shut up when you were angry at your little sister -  or when you rambled excitedly about that Happy Meal toy you just got?

Or is it your teacher, who told you to stop crying when that bully hit you in your stomach? Is it your friends, who told you to not to seem very excited when your crush walked past you? Is it your eight-grade crush, who taught you about not giving clear signs and intentions when he sat next to you and laughed with you and texted you every day and moved away and still dated that girl anyway?


Now you’re in the edge of your teenage years, and you’re confused about it?

I am an introvert, or at least I see myself as an introvert. And I think that it’s true that I am an introvert, because I see introvert characteristics on myself.
You are an extrovert, or at least I see you as an extrovert. And I think that it’s true that you are extrovert, because I see extrovert characteristics on you.
I’d rather sit at home and read or watch movies rather than going out to a social event.
You, I can see you hanging out in every parties and meetings that are happening.
Some people say that I’m not very ‘friendly-looking’ and ‘approachable-looking’, but I’m glad to say that people who have approached me and managed to know me find myself as a good person, except maybe some people I’m not comfortable with.
I can tell from the first time I saw you that you might seem ‘cold’, but you can be warm to people.  Maybe because of your good look you socialize better and faster than me. People know you earlier than they know me. People want to be friends with you. Especially girls, I can see that.
I’m not very good at talking to strangers. I dislike those ‘basa-basi’ talks where no profits are made and no emotion and passion is involved. I can be a better talker to friends that I felt have been closer to my heart. I can even crack jokes and laugh at them myself, in case you haven’t known it.
You are a very good talker. You talk to everyone – despite their being strangers or old friends – just as well as I talk to my good friends alone. You can be open to people even if they haven’t gotten close enough to be called as your friends.

Today you talked to me, but I couldn’t talk to you without being self-conscious.
Today you told me about your weakness, but I couldn’t tell you mine.
I think what I did today made me seem like a terribly serious person.
(Correction: a boring, uninteresting, conceited person.)

I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to do those things.
I actually want to get close to you because you are such a nice person.

I have never met a person like you.

So, would you like to be friends with me?


would you be my friend?
