Of Movie Quotes & Unreal Man

Eve came across a couple of nice quotes:

"The truth is I was dying to sleep with him but isn't delayed gratification maturity?" - Carrie, Sex & The City

I suppose when we were young, we just did whatever we wanted. As we grew older, we grew up and thus we needed to "think before we act". Plus side is you tend to err less but downside is you might miss it altogether. Delayed gratification = Maturity? What do you think?

"Life is simple; Make choices...and don't look back"- Han, Tokyo Drift

Eve likes this one. Simple and to the point.

Now of unreal man.

Eve read about a gal friend's boyfriend who woke up in the morning so he could cook her packed lunch aka like those bento lunch you see in those irresistibly sweet Japanese serials. It was not peanut butter sandwich or fried egg with sausages, but Taglioni with Seared Scallops, ok?! Looks like the stuff you get in restaurants....Such men are almost unheard of nowadays...simply because they are at the brink of extinction.

The same friend and unreal boyfriend has come to such a stage in the relationship where they can sit down at dinner, read books but yet stop from time to time, look up, squeeze each other's hand (aiyoh this is the stuff of movies), smile and continue reading. So comfortable and sooooo sweet.... these are the quality stuff that make Eve miss being in a relationship.

The times Eve does not miss being in a relationship is when she sees her troubled friends in relationships. Eve likes the peace and simplicity of her life now. Eve enjoys the freedom and the lack of need for guilt to a partner for anything she wants to do. There's no need to guess what the other party is thinking, plot how to keep his attention and his heart, cry over unclear situations or bad behaviour.

Nope Eve is not anti-men or anti-relationships. She loves them as much as she hates them. Eve will just take things as they come :)
