The majority of us would have had a crush on someone during our teenage years. That someone could be a random person you caught a glimpse of during lectures, someone you argued with on a daily basis, or even someone who just magically appeared in your line of sight one fine day.

As a really really fugly and silly girl back in JC, I had no choice but to hide my feelings for my crush. Just walk straight, don’t smile, act nonchalant! There was no chance he would have gone out with me anyway. After all, he was from the school volleyball team, smart and outgoing personality, and a million-watt smile. Even that one-second glimpse I caught of him and his red bag in school made my day 100x better. I recall I would see him pass by while I chill with my girlfriends near the canteen before our afternoon PE lessons.

He was the only thing that helped the unfit me to survive those torturous PE lessons. This happened on and on and on until the last day of school before I went on a one-month school break for A-Levels… close to 8 years ago. Oh silly me. To my crush, I have not seen you since the last time I saw you at the shopping mall while I was returning home from an A level exam. Sometimes I wondered if my life would have been different had I approached you with a little courage, especially on days I think about all the “could have been”.

But I know deep down that you deserve someone far better – far more beautiful, smart, and kind. I suppose you would have met her by now. I don’t know if you’ll see this, or if you saw and wondered if this was referring to you. Maybe you don’t remember a thing anymore.

But deep down in my heart, I wish you happiness wherever you are and whoever you are with. While my fond memories of you have been stuck frozen since 8 years ago, I know they are still sweet whenever I recall my memories in JC… And the ones with you in it. :’)

A girl thinks that the Police is very free and reported the Police for failing to meet the seller from Carousell. The girl was late and the seller waited for her for 48mins but she ki siao go report Police say the seller missing in action.

Here is the story:

Kindly advise on this Carousell buyer.

The day before, I asked the buyer to give it a good thought before making any payment to reserve the item. After payment, buyer screenshot and Whatsapp me to liaise on time and location. I informed the buyer that I can also do home delivery with advanced notice.

But the buyer emphasizes she wants to get an item secretly because she does not want her partner to find out that she spends money. After payment is made at around 5:40 pm, the Buyer wants the delivery on the same day, one of Hillview gate, after her partner has fallen asleep at 11 pm or later, to be confirmed. It is a far trip from where I stay and late so I declined

The buyer wants next morning 10:30 am at Plaza Sing next day. I agreed with her several requests and ending the chat, Buyer reminded not to change the time and date. The next day, around 10 am, she told me she will be late and I replied to her that I have already reached the agreed dhoby ghaut location at 9:30 am, and I did not rush her. Since she will reach later than the agreed time 10:30 am, I remain at my current location without proceeding to the meetup place. We agreed that she will WhatsApp me when she is 10 mins away from Toast box so can make my way down. At 10:44 am, she told me she exit MRT and walking over to the Toast box. The distance is less than 4min away. She reached at 10:48 am.

I replied to her at 10:48 I ask for 5mins. Afraid that she worried, I stayed online replying to her at the same time. She suddenly appears unhappily and wanted a refund. And have 2 more conditions that I have to meet her PERSONALLY NOW. At 10:54 am, she demanded that I refund the money to her, if not, she will file a police report on me for ???. As the buyer the last min made 2 more requests, I have to prepare..

At 11:01 am, she says she is already on the way to the Orchard neighbourhood police station to file a police report. If I want to prevent her from making the report, I have to refund her NOW. I told her we are on the line communicating and I am walking, why am I mia? I am contactable. And buyer did not let me know 10 min prior to arrival which I reminded her to do so, and I was early, she was late from the agreed 10:30 am at the location.

If she has done that, to inform me 10mins earlier, I will be on time. Even on the first agreed time on the 10:30 am meet up location. I was on time. Buyer is not on time always. When I reached ard 11 am, I searched for a buyer first. I asked what is she wearing. I further confirmed and send a photo to the buyer on phone at 11:07 am to evidence that I reached and to show that I am here. I am not Mia. Unless she purposely deleted the msgs and only shown what she wants to. As buyer also deleted important msgs as checked.

Despite the buyer knowing the fact that I am always contactable and trying hard to reach her asap, there no reply. I waited and stay around Plaza Sing till 2-3pm. But buyer insists on making police report at around 11:30 am and for what matter???. At 11:54 am, the buyer have finished making the ??? The Police Report which is not true. Then buyer PROUDLY send me a picture covering police report number and her name showing me she have done that and DEMANDED me to refund her the money as a proof to make me frightened. I am unsettled now.What should i do now? I need advice.

How do I be nicer to my GF? Sometimes I find, when I’m under a lot of stress from work, I say very mean things to my GF.

Looking back, I’m unfairly taking it out on her but at those moments, I just couldn’t help it. I’m able to hold back sometimes but others, I can’t. I know myself best and since I was young,

I’m a naturally cruel person with mean thoughts. Everyone feels like an angel in comparison to me. I suppress and never reveal this – never snapped around friends and workers, but when someone is really close like family or partner, I get too comfortable and my filter fails.

I hate this about myself and I hate hurting my GF. In our 2 years of relationship, I’ve done this to her maybe 3 times and regretted it each time. How can I help myself become a kinder person from the bottom of my heart? I worry I’m doomed that I should never let anyone close with my nature.
