I Give Up!

Why am I still being so nice?

On Friday, I suggested to Eddy that he bring his parents out for a CNY dinner. His dad is a little immobile due to a mild stroke but his mom is a sprightly 70+ year old little firecracker! The conversation went something like this :

Me : Hey, lots of people eating here lei. You should bring your parents for dinner since it is CNY and so near your house?
Ed : Ya. Maybe.

Me : Monday night la. I free oso.
Ed : See how la.

Me : You better tell them before you go to Bombay. In case your mom cooks dinner for your dad. You know how early she starts cooking.
Ed : Aiya, I still can tell them in the morning when I come back.
Me : OK. Up to you.

So today, I waited, knowing that he will call in his own time and I was already expecting him to cancel the dinner. True enough, he cancelled. At 6pm. Said that his mom had cooked and she was going out with her friends. That was it.

I expected him to ask me out for dinner since "Hey, I did put aside this evening for you and your family". But Nooooooo ... he just hung up. I waited till 8pm and then I got too hungry and upset. I went to have my own dinner and he called when I was eating. Apparently he was on his way out too. Later, he told me that he went for dinner with his friends.

You say ANGRY or not?? I give up.

  1. Sigh... I read also I angry. I wonder what his point was for calling you when you were eating... to tell you he was going out with friends? He's either Hak sum or no clue at all...

  2. Ya, I was also wondering the same thing - why call me when he's already on the way out? I think he's just clueless la. He is rather "toot"! Maybe that's what I like about him? And also what I NOT like about him! Haha :o)
