beautiful

In college, usually me and my buddies would spend waste time idling around and looking at girls. We’d usually want to look at hot, sexy or pretty girls. Then we’d give them a rating out of 10. Oh what pigs we are. One thing we realized was that there were many hot/pretty girls that had ugly boyfriends. We’d normally comment something like “what a waste”.

Time has flown past. I experience life, learning, experiencing things. One significant thing that I experienced is love. Some people would say that it’s no big deal, but for me love is very eye opening. It made me think differently.

I always had this concept of wanting a pretty girl as my girlfriend. Yup, pretty. If you were not pretty I would not even consider you anything more than a friend. Yes I was shallow. In fact the girl I fell in love with was not attractive to my eyes. I found her some thing more of a talkative friend and nothing else.

Time passed by. I went out with her a lot. Slowly we grew closer. I started caring for her a lot, and I started to have her on my mind all the time. There was one time where she had to go back home late, and it was not really convenient for me to send her back yet she went back alone anyway. During that time she kept her hand phone in her bag and put it on silent to remain low profile, so that no one would notice her and thus not disturb her. During that time I was concerned (more like worried sick). Calling her many times, messaging her but all to no avail. When she finally got to a safe location she checked her phone and called me back. I was so relieved… At that time, I realized that she was more than just a friend to me.

When I finally confessed to her that I liked her, I was happy to know she liked me too… things escalated and we were deeply in love. Sadly… Our love is not fated to last. At least for now, may be in the future we might get together again, who knows?

Anyway that is not the point of this post. Having experienced love, I found that the girl I fell in love with became increasingly attractive. Even to the point that I would say that she is the most beautiful girl I have ever seen in my entire life.

When there is love, looks doesn’t matter any more. People who do not understand this will never understand why pretty girls can end up with ugly boyfriends.

I end this post, dedicating it to the girl I fell in love with. The girl who made me understand the words Love and Beauty.
