Persistence v.s. Stubbornness

It is warm to hear friends saying that I haven’t updated here for a while. : )

Persistence or stubbornness?

There was a guy chasing after a girl who has been in a relationship for more than a year. She was his high school classmate. Her most vivid memory for him was once a time when their seats were side by side and they shared quite a bit about themselves. They went to the same university but rarely kept in contact. They ran into each other about twice on campus. They had lost contact for around two years since the girl went overseas. On a typhoon night more than one year ago, she unexpectedly got his phone call. She surprisingly found out that he’d called her mom to ask her phone number. They’ve stayed in touch since then. He asked her to be his girlfriend twice but she turned him down both times. She’s never thought that she understands him well enough to be in a relationship though she’s found a sense of familiarity in him since they were high school classmates. Anyhow, it isn’t enough for a relationship to start. For her, honesty is the first step to get to know each other instead of being elusive while he only speaks his mind to his girlfriend as he claimed. Besides, he wanted their relationship to be a couple or nothing but she wanted him to be her friend if he could see things in another way around…

There is the other guy who broke up with his ex-girlfriend because of long distance. He’s contacted her from time to time since they broke up. It’s true that he still has some feeling for her since their relationship ended amicably. For him, he can be friends with girls he likes though they may have boyfriends. People may find him tricky but they have to admit that he’s shrewd as well. He wouldn’t speak ill of his female friends’ boyfriends or actually harm their current relationships but he would always be there if they have hard time in their relationships. Of course he wants to have a girlfriend but he keeps his standard…

There is a girl who has been in a relationship for more than a year with a married guy who has separated with his wife and waited for a divorce. She’s found each other compatible but doubts if their relationship will work out eventually. He is religious but she isn’t. She doesn’t want to work if not for the cost of living while he considers it lazy. He sees abortion sinful and unforgivable but raising children in a single parent’s family or an unhappy family is more a big issue for her. So, she is waiting for his divorce to come and hoping the consensus of their senses of value to be reached…
