We're Not Hopless Romantics.. We're Hopeless at BEING Romantic!

so i was talking to a friend today.. bain esowalef.. i told him that i hated the whole lovey dovey gooey stuff..all he said was "ee .. le'ana ur an engineer".. and it got me thinking.. HE IS SO RIGHT!
(FYI.. he is too.. and im not an engineer yet.. im an engineer-to-be) ..

we are programmed to think practically.. to be realistic about things.. to look at whatever we are dealing with from every angle.. and of there is a problem.. we come up with different approaches to fix it.. we like things done quickly.. without any laff o dawaran.. fast and effective.. no drama no bullshit.. just straight to the point..

we are problem solvers.. not romantics.. we deal with numbers, not words.. by the time we graduate we are emotionally crippled!!

i hate the IDEA of holding hands.. or kissing under the moonlight.. or looking deeply into someone's eyes... lama ashoof hal ashya2 in movies.. all i think is YUCK! .. seriously .. GROSS! .. its so tacky..

i think i was a man in my past life.. *sigh*


i'm blaming it on engineering for this and not my intimacy issues ;p .. so that's that!

o salamatkum!

I think you're the type of person who doesn't fall easily, but when you do fall, it's with full throttle.. so maybe then, just then you'll be so eewy goowey lovey dovey :P

when i come to think of what you said... tara 9a7... engineers apply what they studied to everyday life. i dnt know about you bs after your first year, didnt you start to scale everythings size?
bs la7tha it depends, engineer sheno entay?

GOOD talk :D

Diablo said...

what your talking about is critical thinking .. and in my opinion .. most ppl who study at University level should have that or should practice it a little bit .. the extent to which they apply it is different from person to person ...

to be honest .. the reason behind your hypothesis kilish ma aqna3ni ;p

i am a hopeless romantic but theres a DIFFERENCE between being romantic at heart and the lovey-dovey-gooey stufff.. do u watch desperate housewives? well if u do.. theres this episode where john gives gaby a red rose and tells gaby he spent hours looking for the perfect rose just for her.. i want that kind of romance! not the lets hold hands and walk under the moonlight romance!

Simbateeka
