I so like this video snippet from two episodes of an American college drama, done in the style of a fanvid (but without the annoying background music) that I lost count of how many times I played..and uhm..rewinded it. It's just one of the (many) couples in the show..though not one of the main ones..but still pretty heartfelt.
Well, it's a so called interracial relationship where this guy was just having a fling (a.k.a makeout partner) with someone from college but it's a behind-the-door thing...uhm, both figuratively and literally. But the guy doesnt want to indulge in a serious relationship as he's new to college life and merely want to just enjoy life as it is without being bounded. This open concept of his was not really wat the girl wanted but because it was a closeted relationship, she played along until one day, after a makeout session (which wasnt shown but the show opened with them conversing while the guy was dressing up to leave the room), she asked if they could spend more time together.
He joked about it but seeing how serious she was, just asked what she wanted. Well, for once, she wanted them do something, 'clothed', like grab a bite or something. So he agreed but little did she know that he was terrified of the idea because it spelt a date all over it which meant that their fling would mean something more...like perhaps, a relationship.
It was just supposed to be a simple lunch by the outdoor cafeteria thingey in their campus. He played along with her idea of a 'date' and said something like okay, we're clothed and here's the food, which she also lamented 'im also hoping we could talk'..and then guess what? His gal pal popped by and said sorry she was late and turned out, he invited her to their 'date'. Of course she wasnt happy about it which he didnt realised until she blew him off after that girl left by saying that she would have to pass this thing between them because what he did was not cool.
But later at a party, he came to her to apologize explaining his reason for doing so...with few interruptions along the way as he tried to explain (the funny...yet pesky...party goers who came in and out of the room they were in). He said that he freaked out but after she blew him off, he said that he realised that he likes her very much and would like to find out more about this thing he's having for her..(Awwww!!!!).
Then again, they eventuall separated after yet another bad date and this after a movie which he deemed her to be culturally unreceptive. He cut the date off just like that which made her mad and got herself hooked up with another guy which resulted in a one night stand thingey. But she felt bad later and after an accidental meeting with him later, she told him what happened after the date but said that it wont happen again. He was shocked and then exited saying that she was damn right it wont happen again which meant that their fresh..new...relationship...had just ended.
But later, she found him back and tried to clarify matters on her part saying that they were not exactly in a traditional courtship (remember that he was not keen on a relationship?) and he never made this thing between them serious. IN other words, trying to justify that she can bloody well do what she wanted, like uhm..the one night stand..since HE was the one who wanted to be so freaking open! So she thought, okay, since this is what he wanted, she would give him some space which he agreed (you dufus!).
They parted ways and then he called her again with the lame 'see ya, around' which was not what she hoped he would say coz you could tell that she wanted a reconciliation.
Obviously they still like each other..more her than him, I suppose...but it's really hard to carry on a relationship when neither party is willing to be open about their closet relationship so I think it's just logical they part ways. I mean, they started off as mere flings so cant totally blame him for not wanting to carry on the relationship because it will narrow their options and especially his.
But it's really hard to have a relationship with someone who can be hard to understand. Like whats the deal with asking someone else to be sitting down at the same table..during a freaking date? He's just refusing to acknowledge the feelings of the girl and who likes being played around like that either too? Still, I do hope they get back together which of course I dont think I will be able to see unless a kind youtuber upload the clip or something..hee.
Interesting, right? Like a few times I watched video clips from drama or film snippets where love develops from bizarre ways such as, get this, a toilet cubicle. You do the math there. You started off with zero feelings for this person because it's just a mere fling but I dont know whether it's due to their intimacy or something (or the after 'doing the deed' talk) where they get to know each other and find out, hey..maybe there is more to this person.
Of course Im not encouraging people to go flirt around and have flings because it can get pretty messy like the story I told above. But love is something that is mysterious and sometimes, it is hard to understand it. Then again dramas like these make the concept of falling in love so easy...haiz. I hang out with you for a bit, like talking to you...and then feelings start to develop..and we go on date....then realised, hey we can have a relationship.
Yeah..pfft...it's not that easy! So dont get too hopeful if you're into these kind of dramas coz in real life, love in not only mysterious but hard to get as well.
