been thinking lately about whether in certain situations
we tend to read the writing on the wall
when there actually isn’t anything written on the wall.
SCENE A.

Face lights up as boy meets girl through a common friend.
Boy gives that “I’m Interested” look
The three (or more) have a conversation and everything seems to have gone well.
A few meetings later
After probably 2 or more “bump-into-each-other’s”
at a common joint,
Totally ignoring….
boy pretends not to remember meeting girl…
when “forced” to say hello due to a common friend
Now is this just ‘game’ or is it really possible for someone
not to remember meeting you after more than 2 interactions?
SCENE 2.

Boy and girl have a connection.
More often than not if simply friends,
Short message service responses are almost immediate
if not for a valid reason likely to be explained..
When there could be something else there…
Boy takes his sweet time responding
regardless of the content of the text
Girl feels guilty complaining
for fear of coming off as needy.
Girl is pissed off.
Girl moves on or rather appears to.
Boy responds with lame excuse if any
and continues conversation like all is gravy..
is it possible to be that clueless really?
SCENE 3.

Boy :hey, we should go for a (insert movie/lunch/concert/bash/some sort of gathering)
next week
Girl: sounds cool (*hiding excitement*)
Girl:which would be better evening/weekend?
Boy: You decide
Girl: cool,weekend it is…
Week comes,
girl wonders whether the plan is still in order but doesnt want to be the one to ask.
Weekend comes,
girl gets dressed up just in case but boy does not contact her..
Over the weekend boy and girl happen to meet while out with friends
either
boy: You look nice,what’s the occasion
OR
boy:What happened? we were meant to meet up
After several attempts at hinting have failed miserably
girl:Oh yah…(not amused and pretending not to remember..)
Really???
What the *@!”$^ (beans) man??????!
if this is a Game
or Game as it is called,
I don’t want to play no more!
