Bule (Caucasian) Guy Dating Indonesian Girl

I came across this article the other day, and saw that the post got 239 comments. The author and the main contributor of the blog, remains anonymous so I wouldn’t know whether it’s a guy or a lady. A lady named Parvita left a lengthy comment and I guess that was when everybody started the [...]

Closure

Jalan toll dalam kota macet total jam sembilan malam, semua mobil merambat pelan. Aku menoleh ke kiri, menatap deretan gedung yang berjejer manis dan melihat sebuah signage besar, berlatar belakang putih dengan tulisan biru. Sepuluh detik aku terpaku, dan terkejut ketika mobil di belakang mengedipkan lampu besarnya. Melaju pelan, aku meraih handphone dan menelepon sebuah [...]

Sleeping with A Superstar

I met Melly last Tuesday, the first time in weeks, after I’d been away for business trips to Hong Kong, Singapore and Bangkok, and Melly’ had been away to her hometown and her fiance’s. No one else turned up since everybody’s been busy (Ecky’s busy with her new boyfriend and everything else, Dinar’s busy’s with [...]

Open Up and Say…..Aah!!

No, it’s not an album from Poison, but it’s literally the “O” moment (in Indonesian, when somebody gets confused then finally understands, s/he would say “Oooo”), or “Aah” moment. Up to date, I never understand why some men choose to be with girls who are totally opposite from them. Not physically, I’m not a discriminative, [...]

Sloppy Second

A couple of weeks before end year, this girl told us that she’d have a new date: a guy who’s a friend of her friend, British, 37, banker, and lives in Singapore. The friend showed him her picture and he’s interested, asked to meet for a (blind) date in Jakarta in the following week. She [...]

To Wed or Not To Wed…. (deleted)

Only a day after I wrote this, I’ve got a “constructive perspective” from two important people in my life. They suggested that what I wrote here was too personal and it might hurt somebody, although that wasn’t my intention at all! So I decided to delete the article from public. Hopefully this isn’t too late……………………………….. [...]

Six Degrees of Separation

Six degrees of Separation: the theory that anyone on earth can be connected to any other person on the planet through a chain of acquaintances with no more than five intermediaries. If you click on search engines like Google or Yahoo!, you would find many websites discussing about this theory, which, to myself, is proven [...]

Overdue 'We'jaculation

Yap yap, the term is taken from, where else!, The Between Boyfriends Book. I find the book constantly amuses me with its witty, cheeky, sensational terms. Originally it is called Premature ‘We’jaculation: “A common dating dysfunction occurring when one member of a couple starts using the ‘we’ before the other is ready.” But actually, this [...]

Upgraded Girls

Ever read books called “4 Blondes” or “Trading Up” by Candace Bushnell? It’s hilarious. It’s also scary, especially to me, to realize that there are so many women out there, who are willing to give up anything, anything!, just to climb a social ladder and be in a better position (richer, more famous, etc). Oddly [...]

Softly Unspoken #2

If she is your best friend, and you’ve found out you fancy her more than just a friend, what would you do? My friend chooses to do nothing. He would be busy choosing her birthday present 2 months before it, he would be sending her nice, sweet gifts out of nowhere, he would be crossing [...]
