Comments on: merajuk pada yang sayang http://www.suanie.net/2007/09/27/merajuk-pada-yang-sayang/ Wasting your bandwidth since 1999 Fri, 19 Mar 2010 08:03:58 +0800 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.1 hourly 1 By: Merajuk « Used Brains For Sale http://www.suanie.net/2007/09/27/merajuk-pada-yang-sayang/#comment-402410 Merajuk « Used Brains For Sale Wed, 17 Oct 2007 13:43:53 +0000 http://www.suanie.net/2007/09/27/merajuk-pada-yang-sayang/#comment-402410 [...] Oct 17th, 2007 by pleinelune I learned a new word today: Merajuk. It is a Malay word, apparently expressing a host of meanings which when inadequately translated into English, approximates “sulking”. Used in context, it is merajuk pada yang sayang, used in the context of a loved one. It is apparently an activity relegated to the females of the species, in order to manipulate their partners into some form of cajolement and an appeasing act. I was told to find out what it meant by a certain someone, while she was in the process of expressing this complex emotion. And of course, it lies on me, the non-merajuker, to appease the said merajuker. As I have said often in the past: Rule No. 1 of dating: Always apologise even if you are right.

But seriously, when (some of them) merajuk they do it a lot more seriously. And they do not mind doing it to a new friend either - so the only-old-friend-and-relative rule does not apply...
