Too young??

Articles on MSN Life & Style dated 27/10/2011 by Zoe Zahra caught my attention.

Are you a puma, a cheetah or a cougar?
We take a look at the latest trend in women dating younger men.

Basically the articles touched on famous celebrity with their younger partner/fiance/husband, and the widest age gap is between Sam Taylor-Wood and Aaron Johnson, 23 years. As per excerpt form the articles, ""I've got a wonderful woman. I'm an old soul, and she's a young soul."

Woww !!!



Now, where do I begin.

This has been bugging me for almost a month now... I was even asking a fellow blogger to check if the entry is an OK! entry..

Hahahah.... Oh well, read the rest of the entry ok...

Feelings …

Feelings, nothing more than feelings….

I have been in this single status of mine, like, forever, so comfortable until it doesn’t cross my mind at all to look for boyfriend. Fall deeply in love, twice and to be honest, that’s it.

Just recently found out one guy who is way younger….. like VERY YOUNG… has a crush on me.. at first I thought it was a one off feelings, but found out month later, my mere presence still made him all nervous inside.

Perasan ! You might want say, but so was I, not until he go and told his former boss who happened to be my BFF about my presence at his new workplace, a local eatery place serving one of the best ayam penyet in town.

It was afternoon and I was having lunch with my close friend who also happened to be my colleague. After ordering our food, we proceed to take our seat.

Normally, I prefer to sit with my back facing the entrance, as I have the tendencies to check out people who walk in and out of the shop. But on that day, I took a seat facing the entrance, and then I saw him, and I thought, ohh... he looked familiar, AND soon after that I received Whatsapp message from my BFF, and the conversation goes like this :

01/11/2011

BFF – babe
ME – Yup
BFF – U at S***** **** is it?
ME – Ya, Y?
BFF – Remember my staff S********?
ME – I thot is was him, haha
BFF – Hehehe, He called me up just now
BFF – Telling me that you are there
ME – Really
BFF – He said nya sik sure you masih ingat dgn nya lagik or not
ME – Bukan nya kerja Pullman ka?
BFF – Kelak you balit you negur nya kelak, nya madah nya nervous!
BFF – Dah resign, while waiting for the shop to buka, nya kerja sia kejap

Then I told my BFF to send my regards to him. Then later in the afternoon, I send my BFF a Whatsapp message asking if she had conveyed my salam, of course she did, then she told me that he mentioned on how embarassed he was when I was there, guess what was the other question,"Do you think she will come here again to eat?" So cute don't you think so... My BFF just reply, how would I know,then he laughed.

So I told my BFF the eatery place he currently working with are favourites among my colleague and myself. They served the best AYAM PENYET.. at least for us.

HAHAHAH... Jackpot!! for who !! Him?? maybe ??

The thoughts of me, making him all nervous was flattering, and I couldn't deny the fact that it made me smile all day. So later in the evening, I called my BFF and asked her more about him, and she mentioned that whenever he message her on things, he would ask (about me) indirectly through her.. I was like, hmmmm.... Okay....

Wow.. hihihihi.....

Oh well let me tell you a secret !
In fact ! he made a bold move months before (or was it nearly a year) by asking my BFF to convey his ‘salam’ to me, when he was still working at her old bakery shop.

Please don't asked me if I remember the exact date? All I can remember was, we were celebrating a friend birthday, when suddenly, my BFF came from behind and tell me "Babe, my staff said " kak, kirim salam ngan orang baju ungu"

I turn my head to see who he was, well being tall, I spot him right away.. Not bad looking okay...

Did I pay attention !!.. Definitely not !!

Being me,and with my URAT INGGA tebal macam Benua Asia.. I was like.. Nahhh... So wrong..

BUT !

BUT !.....

But after the incident at the shop, I consulted few friends about this, most of them was telling me that there is no harm to going out with younger man, especially the ones who was with me on 01/11/2011.

So, on 02/11/2011, as usual, I send my BFF a Whatsapp message, it goes like this :-

ME : Babe
BFF : Yup
ME : Berapa umo S..... tek?
BFF : 23 0r 24 ?
ME : Bkn younger ka??
BFF : No lah, around dat umor nya
ME : HMMM.... My fren yesterday nanyak, nya itok oii, asked me to proceed
ME : Ada ka patut?
BFF : (Thumbs up sign times 3), Y not..?
ME : Too young la babe, but it got me thinking juak sebenarnya
BFF : Well, looked at Bill... Bahagia juak nya... So...
ME : Bill is Bill
ME : I'm very particular, tho I'm giving it some thots,
ME : AIYAKKK !!!, Bdk2 tu....
BFF : Just follow the flow la
ME : If I'm not mistaken nya thn 90 la babe, ingat sik you ask me to check his a/c
BFF : True, he's budak2 but den again still man thou...
ME : Let me think lok ehhh... Will let you know
BFF : No need to let me know la babe, I'm cool
ME : As a friend ajak to start with
BFF : (Thumbs up sign)
ME : kan I always put barrier, he is your staff
BFF : In the shop yes. But outside he has his own life n I never interfere
ME : I put that barrier !
BFF : Cool

Our conversation ended at 5.31pm

So the next day 03/11/2011, What did I do, I told my BFF to give my phone no to him (ONLY IF HE ASKED ABOUT ME, IF HE ASKED) but found out later she gave it to him anyway, not sporting lah my BFF !! hahaha

Fast forward to 23/11/2011, I posted news on Skuad Harimau Muda on my status in FB, so my BFF saw it and commmented.. But STOP ! why suddenly Skuad harimau muda is the picture..

Keep on reading okay...

Neilly : Ok no prob.. Nothin to be sori abt
ME : Now baruk I feel ok babe...

That is not the end yet people....

Oh man.... more !!!

Yup.. bear with me....

I suddenly realise I was asking all the questions, the pros and cons to all the wrong people!

Another friend got married earlier this year, and she is 14 years older than her husband, and they are expecting their first baby in Mid December...

So I called her on 28/11/2011, not comparing the situation but more on how she felt going out with a younger man.

My conscience was then clear, especially when she said, when they first go out, she was not expecting any serious relationship. She took it as another date.

Now at least, I am more relax... I was doing less thinking on how, what , who. etc

I am going to follow the flow..

Oh ya.. there's more.. I'm not done yet...

01/12/2011, me and another BFF who happened to be my colleague too, went to his workplace to eat.. but not before I called him to ask whether the place was full or not (did I put there I called him, oh ya... the day I asked Neilly if she gave my phone number to him, I asked for his number also).

But not before I called Neilly to ask how he is...

Did I called him, of course I did, I was surprised, the conversation was actually smooth, he still call me kakak... I like that... but I can sense he is still nervous..

So when we arrived there, I made a point, I looked for him and order the ayam penyet from him... just to break the ice bah...

We actually were at ease with each other and of course I let him do his work.

Anyway, just before I left, I conveyed to him Neilly's "salam"...

Observation done by my BFF, he is still a bit shy, but more relaxed..

01/12/2011 My Whatsapp message

ME : I send your regard already, babe, at least I can see he is relaxed a bit
Neilly : (Thumbs up sign)
ME : Haha, busy ehhh, at least I also feel relaxed
ME : I was actually finding it easier talking to him tadik, hahah
ME : me and my worry
Neilly : I told you so
ME : Easier also as he still call me kakak, hua hua
Neilly : :-)
ME : One thing for sure, he is polite
Neilly : Well.. all my boys are polite
ME : Good for you babe and tq for listening to my stupid whining
Neilly : Small matter la


So people, if he actually asked me out, should I??
