Misunderstandings

Misunderstandings can be quite frightening~

Things that can be mis-interpreted:

Recently, I learnt that some people really work differently from other people, even in a relationship. Or maybe it’s really the difference between a male and a female…

Have gone through some experiences that I would like to share and also to remind myself:

1) Misunderstanding One
He was so busy with work these days that he could not even afford to go out and relax on a Saturday afternoon. Having known that on Friday night, I offered to go over his house to accompany him since I have nothing to do. As he was having golf lesson on Saturday morning, he said he would call me the next day when he finished his golf lesson. The next morning, I woke up to see his sms telling me that the golf lesson was postponed. And that was all. It did not tell me that whether he wanted me to go over his house. In the end, I became a bit upset and sms-ed him that I might not be going over if he wanted to concentrate on his work as I was afraid I might be a nuisance. He just answered in a way that made me feel that I could decide if I wanted to go over. In the end, I gave up and went over. As I am a 大女人, I expected him to wait for me somewhere near his house or below his house. However, he just gave plain instructions how to go his house. As I was late, I decided to get a cab instead of taking the long bus journey. Thinking that he would wait for me downstairs and accompany me to eat lunch or buy lunch with me, he told me to get my own lunch. I was really a bit pissed off by that time and I gave him an unfriendly message. It was only when he explained that he was waiting for the part-time maid to reach his house and therefore he could not leave his house, and he was waiting for me to buy my lunch so that he could eat his dabao lunch with me when I reached. OK, it was a misunderstanding. He never told me about having to wait for the part-time maid. And I was touched that he was waiting for me to eat lunch with him as his mum bought his lunch long ago. So I forgave him…

2) Misunderstanding Two
He was again so busy these days that he had to work late one day. We were on Chinese medicine that had to continue for 3 days for me, and 6 days for him. He sms-ed me that he had to work late and would bring me my medicine that his father helped us to brew when he finished work and reached home. Deciding to be nice, I stayed back to finish some work and in the end, both of us worked till 9pm. He told me he would see me at his house. My mind was working again: I got to make my own way to his house again? Hmm… I told him I did not really know how to go his house from my office. The blockhead gave me instructions in the sms. What der..!!…Sigh, ok, luckily my colleague worked late too and we left together and headed the same direction as she lived near the area. He reached home and checked with me that I was at the MRT station and told me to take a bus in while he would go take a bath. I was cursing and swearing in silence again. CAN’T HE PICK ME UP?? Nevermind, I was too tired to scream at him anyway. So I obediently made my way to his house. When I stepped in, I realized he was busy heating up the dinner for both of us. OK, it was another misunderstanding. He never told me he was going to heat up the dinner. Well, I enjoyed my dinner and night =D
