FASHION PULIS: Under pressure


Most signs indicate that Happy Boy (HB) and The One (TO) are destined to be each other’s forever. The circumstances of their relationship are smooth and quiet. Time has indeed mellowed the environment and the two have clearly hit it off.

One time, Elder Influencer (EI) expressed to HB that she was glad to see TO giddy and excited to be with him. Never has she seen TO be happy with any other partner. EI praised HB for his manners and treatment of TO. Further, EI noted that HB is kind to TO’s family and they like him as well. Then, EI shared that TO was ready to settle down and was just waiting for HB’s moves.

HB was flattered at EI’s words, as he confided to Close Friend (CF). However, HB could only share his thoughts to CF. HB affirmed that he appreciates TO and believes that their relationship might lead to what EI was hinting about. Yet, he felt awkward upon hearing TO’s feelings from EI. He suddenly felt the pressure. At his young life, HB admitted to CF that he is still enjoying the boyfriend-girlfriend stage with TO.

Incidentally, the signs are not a hundred percent, as someone from HB’s camp is worried about him, but opts to remain quiet.

Boring Dude

Prim and Proper (PP) woman was asked by her friends how it was to be in a relationship with Hot Dude (HD). PP said that things were great, but her friends were not satisfied with her general response. They were eager to know if he lives up to his ‘hot dude’ reputation.

PP tried to keep mum, but her friends saw to it that she did not miss a few rounds of drinks. In her tipsy state, PP spilled shocking tea. PP shared that during their trip overseas, she initiated for something to happen. After all, they finally had time together alone and away from work. They kissed, but when PP expected more to happen, HD preferred for them to take a walk and have a midnight snack. PP thought she would be the midnight snack, but she was frustrated. HD was such a bore to be with. There was no thrill.

Unlike her previous relationships that satisfied her physical and fun needs, HD seemed timid and not as aggressive. However, most of them had no sense of direction in life, which resulted in breakups. So as not to lead to resentment, PP and HD allegedly agreed to a cool off to assess where they want their future to lead.  

‘There’s a drive in a lost soul—in one that is searching for acceptance, companionship, belonging, whatever you want to call it. The slightest coincidence ignites a spark that one hopes will lead to something meaningful.’ ― Doug Cooper
