bring on the beer
I was answering some interview questions when I just realised that I have been single for 5 years. This will be my 6th year of singlehood and if things doesn’t change soon, still counting…
Some people might think that it’s depressing. I have never really thought about it like that.
I have a great family, wonderful friends, and somehow they just made up for the lack of a steady male companion.
Of course I bitch and whine about how I would like things to change, how great it would be to have someone to hold hands with, but deep down I am wondering if I am ready for that change.
There have been slipped opportunities when things don’t and can’t work out, but I am not taking those into account. I don’t consider them boyfriends; relationships maybe but of a different, more complex and complicated kind.
At the wedding dinner, relatives a few times removed kept asking me when it would be my turn. I don’t even have a boyfriend to speak of!
Or maybe my perspective is so screwed that I should in fact be worried and start presenting myself better and snatch that ever elusive boyfriend-material fella.
This year I turn 25. My mother got married at my age. My grandmother got hitched at 15.
Maybe my turn will come at 35.
In this age where women are getting married at a later age, it is really not that scary a thought.
But first I’d have to snag a fella first, yeah? So if you know someone…
Perhaps in a couple of years I’ll be worried. Perhaps not. In the meantime, bring on the beers!

‘Some people might think that it’s depressing. I have never really thought about it like that.’
It’s not depressing. Well, not while you can still buy batteries [what the frig am I implying there? Men are onyl good for one thing?]
Anyway, I believe Paul is still available [Hmmm, is there any site I won't pimp him?]
But, I’ve been single since April the 15th 1997. That’s like … *counts on fingers* 9 years, 2 months and 20 days [but who's counting].
It’s not that big a deal.
I mean, it’s not like you want to have kids, so you don’t have to worry about your biological clock ticking.
When you do get a BF/Fiance/Husband/Slave, I’m sure it’ll be for companionship. Someone to have deep and meaningful conversations with, romantic dinners, traveling companion on holidays and to abuse with hentai sex toys … or something … oh, and probably as a source of money if you ever retire to become a housewife.
So, it’s not like a huge hurry … I’m not in a hurry, I’m like 100 years older than you.
Choose wisely. Better to get a compatible partner than get any old person.
Better single for the right reasons than married for the wrong ones!
(And if all else fails, blame it on your BaZi. Muahahhaha)
*hands Suan an Erdinger”
ask KY to pimp u la.
w00t beer!
I’ve forgotten how long I’ve had that Date Suanie button on my sidebar. Perhaps the fellers stay away because the thing is on my blog.
Would you really trade a keg of ice-cold beer for some feller that potentially smells of armpit?
go have hardcore sex with fireangel
First you have to kawan the fella. Then when the fella is cowing you and you ada feel, he’s your lover. Then boiflen. Then fiancee. Then husband. Then sex slave. BWAHAHAHA. Ahem.
i’ve contributed to the date suanie post haven’t i? such great friends you have. =D
Suan, all this wont matter much if N.Korean lobs a missile to either Japan, China or USA.
So better be quick !
boiflen…. hehehehehehehehehe!
Kim Jong Il looks like good marriage material, ya?
At least you can play with his missiles*snort*…..
Don’t the name Taepodong-2 sounds soooo hot?
eerrrrrr, you know u seem to me have a vast pool of friends, and also u seem to be the type who have a constantly GROWING pool of friends, so it should not be a problem for u to hook up with someone.. eventually. I did that at one time (aka boozee till u can’t recognize your father and your own name)to expand my circle of friends too and I must say it was quite easy to get erm, numbers, which I seldom call. And also most gals whom i got numbers from thinks I am out to play(who isn’t!? guys wanna have funs too y’know) ok where was i? my point is tat if u consistently go out and meet new ppl, u have higher chances. I on the other hand have fell back into my own comfort zone seeing my old time friends, and well, I must say, I am happy as it is, until that someone comes along, its happy hour from fri to sat, starts at 7.30 RUM or THAI? wahahaha, or PASSION if I wanna be all pretentious and shit. GOOD TO know u are blogging again BTW.
If you weren’t so worried about it you probably won’t be blogging about it.
I’ve been single for 28 years …haha who can beat me?
you could always switch teams.
Butch suck!
Dabs: are you in love with Paul’s sooty eyelashes but too afraid to speak up? We can help, you know….
Erna: uh huh… it’s all destiny’s lame fault!
spiller: I’ll take just the beer thanks
tigerjoe: looks like it backfired after all
no I wouldn’t, I have FRIENDS who could tell me what it smells like…
Paul: siao
kuzco: hokay… if so easy then everyone would be hitched
KY : Indeed
spongefox: I’ll just rule out Japanese, Chinese and Americans then… or not?
Z: it’s only one more day to the weekend, chill.
steveneleven: heh I know what you’re talking about… comfort zones are the best zones evar. passion’s music is good, k.
ShadowFox: it’s an easy topic to write about
senbai: congrats congrats!!!
Cheneille: it won’t make the problem go away, you know
Hey, it is some man’s loss – not yours. You just be happy girl and wait. Your Prince Charming is negotiating KL’s traffic. The crates of beer he is bringing don’t help his progress.
And dont forget: Theres always Andre The Giant.
So next year ads :

Honestly, being single can be addicted.
24? Still young wat.
you’re right. actually it makes the matter worse. -_-”
nvm, your day will come, and then we’ll have to wear sunglasses while reading your newly-renovated chinese angpow red layout blog.
Pokku: haha thanks! Andre’s dead btw.
moo_t: indeed! that may not be a good thing tho.
Hijackqueen: the years slowly creep upon us.
Cheneille: hmm… sounds tacky…
Yknow, there’s this lil thing going around that’s stuck in my head recently: some people date their friends.
about everything you’d need a girl(boy)friend for, except the sex part. which you don’t need to go steady with anyone for
**hugz**
hi suanie, remember me? i believe i hit on you a few weeks ago. how have you been? i am looking too. maybe we could hook up? i will be eagerly awaiting your response my (future) darling
Eh!!! I only just read the reply from Suan!!!! Grrrrrr! lol
I’m trying to pimp Paul off to women. Besides, we’re still trying to hook you up too … I still have the ‘Date Suanie’ button on my site. [I'm going to do a much better one soon too!]
If you want to try to hook me up with someone, make sure they are female. I can get men easily just by returning to Sydney!
