Something made me thought of these related incidents/stories:

1) Ever seen this scene from movies where the female leading character fall in love with a nice guy, yet later meet another guy who seems to be better than her current bf, and 她感叹：“可惜我们相遇太晚。”

2）Not long after you receive yr salary, you went out shopping and bought a dress which you love it at the first sight. Yet , just 2 weeks later, you saw that the shop was have a storewide 50% discount, and the dress which you had bought was available too!
And you laments:“早知道当时不要买。”


So the theory of "early bird catches the worm" doesn't apply to everything. But do you blame people for making you "lose out" ( e.g.: you grumble why the salesgirl din reveal abt the sale) ?

You are the one who made the decision, you should take the full responsiblity.
I am not saying that we can only blame ourselves if we encounter such incidents.

If only we can be more easily contented and be satisfied with what we already have. If you are attached and have a nice (that word is too general) and understanding partner, you shouldn't be regretting abt being in a commitment when you got a know another person who seems to be a better match than yr partner. How would you be sure that you will be better off with the later?

As for the second example, would you be sure that you are still able to get that dress u like if you have waited? There is always a risk of losing something if we did not take any action. You are not the only person living in this world, there are other who have the same taste as you. Why not look from another angle and think abt how lucky you are to have own that dress and can wear it 2 weeks earlier than others.



*************************

Yes, I am pissed off by your attitude. I rather be straightforward and write in here rather than whine on my other private blog behind yr back.

I am pissed off because you dun seems to appreciate what I am doing. A "gift" is suppose to be something decided by the giver. If you dun like it , you could just threw it away.

If you had seen "B" before u had seen "A", would you still say you will prefer "A" if you had gotten "B"?

I dun need praises or "thank you" messages, just as long as I know what I have done is being appreciated, I am contented with that.
