A few nights back, one of my friends suddenly called me. Basically he wanted to have his CDs back which I had been borrowing from him for more than 1 year...
No wonder he sounded a bit rush... it was a Christmas featuring CD. Understand if he misses this timing, he'd have to wait another year to actually play that to enjly
I felt bad for him, and I actually rescheduled my dinner appointment with some other friends... and... deligently presented at the place he specified on time! This is the shop that our mutual friends run.
He was delayed for around 30minutes.... taking sme of his friends along when he showed up at the shop.
He picked up the CDs, chatted with our friends..... and left. He hardly spoke to me.
Well... it was probably me triggering this in the first place, and it's good that his primary objective of retrieving back his loving Kenny G CD back. But shouldn't there be any show of appreciation or something...
There wasn't even a simple word of "thanks."
Our friends were pretty much surprized that he was soooo plain
Meaning.... they thought the CD was just an opportunity for us to meet up. To be honest, I initially thought we might go for a drink after that (even though we hadn't planned for it - that's normally the case with us). It was a few weeks back we actually chatted we should catch up sometime before mid-December.
I am not looking for any sort of romantic situation towards him.... but I'm personally so convinced that he is not the one.... never and ever
Probably he was rushing off as his friends were waiting there onsite. Yet, I'm disappointed with that kind of behavior in general. I even had to manage my schedule in the last munute for him...
In addition.... the side story is.... I just remember that he also keeps some of my CDs that I have passed onto him about an year ago.
Now, should I be upset? Maybe so...
To remember... never forget to say *thanks* for anything you receive and anything you feel appreciateion for. Small details don't really matter - the simple word makes a big difference, I believe.
