I swear it’s true. For those who don’t know, Good Luck Chuck is a movie about this guy who thinks he's cursed, coz after a girl sleeps with him, she finds the true love of her life and gets married.
There were a few instances where I ‘turned down’ a guy (not sleep with him!), and he’ll hook up in no time, and more often than not… they’ll get married!
For example:
Specimen 1: Mr F
Time: Circa early 2007
Synopsis: Met Mr F in late 2006, hit it off really well but we kept things casual and didn’t want to rush things. Around Dec, my ex made a proposal (as in suggestion, not the on-one-bended-knee kind) for us to try again. I faltered for a moment and told Mr F i’m considering the ex. Disappointed, he went off to get married within months.
Specimen 2: The Ex
Time: Still early 2007
Synopsis: After Mr F got hitched, I was kinda upset. Even though Mr F was no longer in the picture, I still couldn’t give my heart completely yet (yeah, I’m fickle like that). I asked for more time, which unfortunately, during that time, he met someone else. They tied the knot about a year later.
Specimen 3: The one who made me go hmmm
Time: Last month
Synopsis: An update on that entry. It turned out all that he was considering us getting together, which explained all that weird actions. To cut things short, I kinda blew him off initially. After thinking things over, I told him that we could give it a shot. But what’s done is done, and I couldn’t take back what I said before. He was in a depressed, suicidal mood just 2 weeks ago, telling me about how it’s hopeless coz he doesn’t think he can find someone now. But just a few days ago on facebook, I saw that his relationship status has changed! It’s someone he knew from childhood apparently.
So there you go. These are just the main ones I highlighted. There were a few others that I dated briefly who also got married to the next girl they dated.
Coincidence?
Of course la! I don’t believe I have such a curse (or gift, depending on how you see it. heh). It’s just uncanny, don’t you think?
bh did u happen to be so evil in school that a boy put voodoo curse on you?
ReplyDeleteYeah I watched that stupid movie with my fren. LOL.
I bet its coincidence la. jgn nak merepek.
The one for you will come soon. when you least expected it. :)
you gonna make all us girls trace and track back all the guys we ever dated/rejected. what a lot of homework! haha
ReplyDeletei didn't watch that movie, altho jessica alba looked delicious heh. but yea, random's rite. there's gonna be a guy who would poke himself with needles just to be with you hehe
random, i was sooo nerdy and specky in school la. no chance to be evil to any boy, coz none were interested in me! lol.
ReplyDeleteyes, yes its merepek i noe... but so coincidental! maybe the reason i couldnt accept these guys were because there was someone else more suitable for them. everything happens for a reason :)
wh: wah, self-inflicted voodoo? how sweet... lol!
Methinks that movie was a lame excuse to show lots of sex on screen.
ReplyDeleteCoincidence or not, I would hereby like to hang around near you when you decide to give the next guy the boot. Hahahaa
By the way, geeky/nerdy/specky or not, there's always someone in our past who was madly in love with us but we never knew they existed. So you can never tell if they had put a spell on you!
jaded: so the next girl he lays his eyes on will be you! so clever... i could play cupid like this :p
ReplyDeleteand there WAS my pri 4 classmate who gave me a pink mechanical pencil (all the rage then) and a mushy hari raya card to go along with it... hmmmmm
hi hearties!! Yup yup, the way Barren shared the examples are all so coincidental! And I really like what you said in the popper about "maybe the reason was because there was someone else more suitable for them." Very true, I think.
ReplyDeleteIf you ask me, not that I've had instances as above, but it's more of how we'd feel when the guys we kinda dated or met just got hitched like soo effortlessly...(when here we're trying to figure ourselves out. :))
Oh well, the ex and me broke up 2 years ago and we're both still single and (yes still in contact). I don't know how it'll be like if he gets married in a flash of eye! This kinda things do happen isn't it..

yeap, things like that do happen fast. we just gotta be prepared for it... sometimes when i go out (especially alone), i brace myself in case i bump into exes with their current beau/wife/kids in tow. my ultimate nightmare ok! hehe but so far, not YET.
