It was the day the Davids were set to wow Filipino when I learned that they reopened this social networking site. Since the initial version did not held up, as expected, they required everybody, including previous members to sign-up or register as they did before.
And me, being a previous member and a social networking fan, did sign up. And as soon as I had finished my profile, I did what everybody in the site was doing, I socialized. So, I started going through people - their pictures and their profiles. And if they are interesting, physically, socially, emotionally and everything-in between-wise, I'd do the click and add them as my friend.
There was this one guy who I guess stood out among the people I added up. On top of the visual pleasure, what he had in his profile was very much cool. It wasn't nicely written, although thoughts were coherently made avaiable to those made time reading profile's first. I guess the genuine content of his profile was a plus factor too. So I made the "click" and added him up..
A few minutes, or a few hours after, he approved my invite. And he left a comment as well..
"hehe natuwa ako sa profile mu ahh.. sayang parehas taung mahiyain...ala lang.. natuwa lang ako..thanks 4 d'invite/.fellow loner.."
Yes. He the shy type. I am a shy type. The silent one. Someone who listens more than talking. And a loner. And if I were to find a twin in those aspects, he'd certainly be the perfect one.
I admit, I liked him. And so to get to know him... And reach out... And become a little more sociable and less a loner, I sent him a message, a message that just doesn't say "hi" or "hello", "musta" or even "how's life?"
"has it always been fun being a loner?"
It was my opening line which started a short but rather great conversation. Something more than an exchange of ASLs, numbers and IM handles.. Way different than talks about sexual preferences, experiences and positions... And something more than "ok" "oic" and :) as replies... It was all about what we are, the fellow loners..
Until he said that he didn't regret that being a loner for he found someone.. his someone... and they have been together for six and a half years... with another loner...
"cguro sa pagiging loner ko di ako nahirapan na maattach sa isang loner guy din.. "
...
"wow... six and a half years... wow... nice.. that's nice... "
"you may be a loner.. but a lucky guy.. "
At that moment, I had defined the word "WOW" as a heart-breaking, deeply saddening ouch!
(You should have remembered that he wasn't looking for a partner. He clearly stated that in his profile, dumbass!)
The conversation didn't go that long, for I was getting late for the concert. (Damn, concerts are now starting on time!) I logged out of the site and turned of the pc, took a shower, got dressed up and hoped that the David's would bring back the original meaning of the word wow..
I just opened his account today and saw a newly posted picture.. him and someone else (I assume his partner) kissing...
WOW!
