So apparently, today is the Chinese New Year. I don't really follow tradition since I am not Chinese nor do I bear any Chinese blood in me, but a friend of mine told me to wear anything red, orange or yellow and greet midnight awake with it. She also told me a bunch of stuff to do which I completely missed comprehending. It was more rituals for the occasion but it was such a hassle, but I do remember that it was supposedly for good luck.
So the only thing I remembered was to wear the said colors and be awake till midnight and that I did. I wore this old long-sleeved red top and stayed awake which wasn't really the reason why.
I had an argument with my boss/ex-boyfriend 4 years ago. LOL. Yeah, I know. It just so happens that I work as a freelance outsource writer for their small company. He offered me the job and christened me as the "Lady of Contents" in their office.
The argument was not really related to my work or being the "exes" we are, but it was about his friend/co-worker and my friend.
See, on my birthday (which was the best birthday celebration ever in my life) I invited my ex and he brought along his friend. I invited lots of my friends too and his friend got along well with this certain friend of mine.
The problem is my ex. He never told me all of the information about his friend in one sitting. In fact, he told me bit and pieces of here, there and everywhere in random times that his friend was actually married. Only 2 weeks ago did I know that his friend have already 3 kids!
One more problem is that my ex is so passive that he doesn't want get involved. I just met his friend on my birthday and my friend was assuming that I know his friend very well.
If I've only known all of the facts in one night, I could've told her to stay away from his friend, but NO! This useless imbecile did absolutely nothing to prevent anything from happen.
My friend cried when she heard the facts straight from the horse's mouth a few weeks after they've become close. Now I am cleaning up their mess.
The most annoying part is that my ex shut me down when I started ranting about his unbelievable passiveness and his friend's ridiculous pursuit of my friend. Wow. That reminded me of my recent ex of 4 years who used to do that to me every time!
I am not stupid nor would I accept this kind of behavior again. So I removed him from my Skype contacts and "unfriended" him on my FaceBook. Seriously, I thought he was a gentleman and a really nice guy, but the fact that he wanted nothing to do with what's happening which was clear that he is involved because he knows his friend more than I do and even not doing anything to keep them away from each other eventhough he knows makes my blood boil.
One thing I remembered is that the next day, after finishing the beer I had from my birthday that they drank a couple of weeks later here in our house, his friend kissed and told! I cannot believe these kind of men still exist!
Eventhough he was very gentle-natured, the fact that he didn't do anything to prevent this from happening knowing that he holds all of the information is just plain for me to do the actual thing that I should do. I never knew he never had the balls to stop it nor face me when I'm mad.
Heh! And I thought I was sick for being a sadist to children. They're even sicker than me. I guess there is no reason for me to commune with him anymore except for my last pay.
After "cleaning" my Skype and FaceBook from hazards like them, I ended up watching "Nirvana: Unplugged in New York" and what a relief that is for me. It totally cooled down the tension in me and I managed to enjoy the rest of the night until the Chinese New Year.
