the journey of self discovery from the road less travelled

Keep going ...

From astrology, the horse character is one who loves deeply, gets hurt a lot, but probably recovers quickly from unsuccessful relationships.Horses just run on ...

As a Leo, it's quite easy to love people (& hate them) .. it's kind of extreme. I have liked many people, confessed my feelings & I have never successfully wooed someone. And the lion's ego is hurt for a while now.


My last so-called relationship did not turn out so well ... did not feel like pursuing further when I started realizing that it's going to stay one-sided for a long time, since there's no compromise & no mutual feeling. Looking back, we were quite different & life ideals were contrasting especially about religion. Amazing that I fell for her, but probably the best option of my life at that moment.

Also, all the people I ever liked, never fitted into my horoscope match from both Chinese & western astrology, it's usually only from one angle.

If you ever heard me lament about my relationships, it's usually about being either in the wrong place, time, circumstance or just the person. In any case, my most recent interest will once again be in the wrong place, but more than that, would require me to test my principles should I proceed.

She's great, I love her ideals (it's just too similar & we both agree), her sarcastic humour tickles my thoughts, her approach to life & problems, and so much more. This is the thing about love, isn't it? We can fail, but I think each time I fail, the next one's better. And no doubt she's great.

And if it were to get better, both our horoscopes from western & chinese fit perfectly. The thing I fear (& at the same time look forward to), is when she will ask me about my thoughts for her.

Working with her, it's does not take a genius to figure out that she will do that to find out what she wants. And since I am not so good at hiding my feelings when confronted, I just might.

But since we work together, it's not easy you know. A relationship in work, can change many things, how people perceive it, regardless the relationship works out in the 1st place. It will take a lot of effort, open thinking and neutrality from both people & their surrounding people to make it work well.

I like her, a lot. In the 2nd day I knw her, she mentioned casually that I am a great guy, but I am not her type. But looking at changes & comments, it can change. It just might.

Until then, just keep working on it Jay! A try does not equal success but no tries is already failed.
