what do you do when you meet a creepy person?
do you run or you confront?
well, frankly, unless you confront the person, you wouldn't know if he's creepy or not right?
but for me, i chose to play with fire, pardon me a little, because i didn't know it'll blow up that big.
and then i had to do damage control.
all in all, like in my previous post, i did say i cannot make friends with this person, and my conclusion stays so. yes, this person is nice, yaa yaa wee wee see see. but so? you can't deny that he is creepy after what he did.
sure i was mean, by suan-ing and bullying kimmy, well xiao qiang and i had fun, but we never go beyond what we always do. but this person, once he decided to bet, he'll bet a stash of cash. mind you, it's a stash, not a stack...
and something he said, made me wonder if it's true for all guys. sorry for stereotyping, but i can't help but harp on his phrase 'don't care for her too much', and 'don't show your love for her by caring for her'.
were those phrases like that? hmm, i can't remember the second one, but the first one definitely i saw.
at that point of time i wanted to cut him off, because me being a girl there, i think that phrase sounded rather wrong.
but either way, usually, as i've said many times, i'll be the one to clean up the mess, and to do damage control, i managed to turn the table around, according to truth, just, tweak it around to view it from another perspective. i mean, afterall, it could be real isn't it?
then again, when i sat down and think, it was really a close shave. and he really went too far. perhaps to him, it wasn't far enough. afterall, his guts is of course higher than mine. but given me, i wouldn't have betted so high.
so at the end of it, some missing pieces starts to reform, and the broken links are once again connected. and i made sense out of some of the query i had last time.
my conclusion, stay away from this person.
which is why i'm having second thoughts about going for the event. i mean, yes he is smart, but like xiao hui's portfolio says 'that which proves too much proves nothing'. he is smart to think about things that are underlying, but not that smart as to go one step further.
dealing with this person requires craft, but i'm not so sure as i'm up to it or not. because things have come to the stage where any wrong move and it'll be mayday plus doomsday for me.
but even as i say so, there are events that happened just in recent times where i think, diffusion of responsibility and bystander effect isn't such a bad thing after all. i mean why trouble yourself to do things which you frankly, don't have to, unless you pledge loyalty already.
despite that, i come back once again to my point as i said to kimmy countable hours ago.
these people are my friends, i can't just sit around watch show eat popcorn.
but! one thing i know, is that to stay away from creepy people, because circumstances might just get out of control and arrows start to fly...
