Fair-weather friends

Rant rant rant. There’s this super annoying girl I know (mentioned her once in an older entry before) from secondary school. I wouldn’t even consider us proper friends; we just had a junior-senior relationship in the same CCA. Well, I can’t be fucked to maintain relationships with people who mean absolutely nothing to me in my life, people who have never been a friend to me.

Anyway, she bugs me on Facebook whenever she feels like it. For instance, “Hey! Anytime you wanna meet just sms me k! ^^” (How about NEVER????) and I don’t ever reply. Another time she inboxed me asking for bio textbooks (got also don’t want give you… unless you pay?) and I didn’t reply also :3 Went out with her once and I didn’t really enjoy it plus she was really irritating. So after that everytime she asked me out I’d make some excuse or just ignore muahahaha. Normal people would take a hint, right? Not her.

Recently, she texted me again, being the little annoying bugger she is… (I’ve edited most of her dialogue into proper English because she is one of those twits that still tYpe lyyykk diiShh)

She: Hey how about meeting to celebrate qs eur (???) birthday? Let’s have a simple meetup on Friday?
*qs = initials of a mutual friend (don’t really understand what she’s trying to say. Qs and my birthday? Or?

She (again): Cher, can you buy a present then bring it next Friday? I share money with you. just buy something like around $6. We meet 5.10pm at Orchard MRT?
* 1) Fuq you, you are not allowed to call me any nicknames even if it’s just my name shortened 2) Wtf want share present still so cheapo??? 3) Fuq you la, are you asking me or ordering me? Did I say okay?

Me: Orchard or Bishan? QS said Bishan. And why so late?
* Because the other girl texted me too

She: Er I got school leh -.-
* 1) Knn I’m just asking right? How would I know if you have school? 2) You are the only one with school is it? 3) Ccb I hate it when people -.- me. To me it is freaking rude especially if it’s directed me and I have tweeted before that I prefer -_- than -.- 4) Never even answer my question about the venue

Me: Just asking. Bishan or Orchard??
* I think I’m damn polite already… considering that I’m pissed.

She: Bishan. Could you buy a present first? Cos I’m not free to buy, thanks uh!
* To be more precise, she said, “cuz im not free to buy thks uh!”
1) The way she said it all out in one single sentence seems rude to me 2) Especially when she never asked if I would be okay with it, she just assumed 3) Are you asking for a favour or are you ordering me????

CCB only you got school, only you are not free la?? My birthday is on the 27th and I never even say anything, yet you order me to buy a present for someone else????????? Wouldn’t want a present from you or celebrate it with you though. You are nobody to me, other than a super irritating twit. Actually I was still considering if I should just go, because it might be nice to catch up. But aiya really buay tahan so forget it. Life is too short to waste it with people like this -_- the less to do with you, the better.

Geeez don’t you hate people like this?! Fucking rude, fucking annoying, fucking thick-skinned and only come to you when they need something. I know very well who my true friends are and why I call them friends and I don’t need anything more. The people who I genuinely love and care about and who I regard as friends… do you know how much they have done for me and how much they mean to me and how much we have gone through together? Friendship isn’t something that happens overnight. You don’t just pick any day you feel like talking to someone and then go knocking on their doors and hold up a friendship contract to them.

For me, anyway. I don’t think that I have achieved a lot in life but I am very sure of two areas that I am successful at and perfectly happy with – family and friends 🙂 these are 2 areas that I don’t have any problems with or feel troubled about at all. These are people that have seen the ugliest and worst side of me and yet choose to stick with me regardless. People who understand me, who just get me, who give me strength and support. People who make life seem happier and brighter and so much more worth living just by being in it. And words can never express how much they mean to me and how much I love them enough.

“When we are walking with friends, the journey seems shorter and more fun than if we walk by ourselves. Sometimes, a friend’s cheer is what we need to move us along the way.”
