All these years I have never dated
guys from the 90s even though I am one myself. I never really knew why all my
swipes never come across a single one of them until recently. When I started
dating guys who are in their 30s, there’s less of a guessing game, and everyone
is more confident or mature. There’s less drama, people are happier, more
financially stable and there’s really no hanging in the middle.
Until recently, I thought I found
someone who I can at least click on the level of thinking. All these years I
find myself unable to get on the same channel with my dates when it comes to
discussing about career or life or even travel. Most people only want to travel
because they want to look forward for the holidays, so that they don’t have to
go to work. But I travel so that I could open my horizon and hopefully find an
inspiration to my career. There’s a difference. I want to travel the
world in business class, not be a budget traveler.
I’m not a spontaneous, go-with-the-flow
person, so I can’t date someone who doesn’t have a life’s goal themselves. I hate
the double-texts, the can I see you in your office when I’m on leave, those
small talks. We’re a grown adult but our path are marks differently. Then I met
you, I was guarded as usual, but the laughter we shared was loud, those
conversation flow so effortlessly.
You kissed me. And I never hear from you since. I
guess it reminds me why I never dated guys from the 90s, because even as we age,
they will never be as mature as they should be. They will always going to be
guessing game long before we even started dating.
