am I still a virgin?
Posted by rainesse on August 6, 2008
A closie-closie wannabe guy jumps at me and asks me this stupid and inappropriate-for-casual-talk question late this afternoon. If my eyes could kill, he’d be so dead right now. I gave him a blank 5-second stare and quickly asked him back why the hell he should even care.
He winked and smiled, as if to say “Just say yes ’cause I’m trying to make a point to my friend!”, but simply said, “She (referring to the super Jologs lady-friend beside him) claims that all twenty-something girls who are currently in a relationship is not a virgin anymore. Do you agree?”
I blinked in utter disbelief! Gosh! During times like this, I would have screamed “F*@k!!” but I just couldn’t muster the strength to even react so such a foolish, super sensitive even, topic! Allen (my lovely soul mate) thinks that it’s worse than asking how much my net earnings per month are!
Something in me went ahead and I just told him as I was facing the lady-friend, “I am proud to announce… that I… am still a virgin.”. Period. They all kept quiet. And then she suddenly blurted out that my case is quite different, yada yada yada, that she, having been in 3 consecutive bad relationships and is now in one that she feels might work, is having a different situation altogether. It’s like she tried to justify her choice to be sexually active while I was sentenced that despite looking so young and full of curiosity now, would soon end up like her.
It’s pathetic.
When everyone finally fell silent to her last statement, I just uttered, “…Sa Ilong! (…in the nose!)”. Everyone around me burst into laughter! Hahaha
No one in their right mind would ask such a question neither answer such.
Tell me again why I need to coexist with these people?
Right, to define who I am and why I am perfectly different from them. To, at least, shed some bright light on them on what is acceptable and what is not socially.
Sigh.
In any case, I’m staying sun-tastic while they are annoy-tastic. Cheers!
