So i've never known what it is to fall in love. I don't know romance. Everything about romance is either read from a book or from the TV or watching other's action. So i don't know the butterflies in stomach or heart stopping/heart beating phenomenon. What I'm trying to say is, since i've never experience romance, I find everything romantic.
I've recently watched a J-drama and the guy from the drama is a total douche. He's sarcastic, cold, eccentric but also a genius. He bullies the girl he loves almost like for the entire drama and the girl is, truthfully, very annoying to me. She's too loud and make exaggerated actions for no reason. Yet, when the douchy guy does some little act of "affections" i find it so romantic and sweet. He loves her but the way he shows his feeling is so irritating- Like telling the girl she's stupid and he's better off without her then chasing after her and kissing her. And there's one part when he coldly broke up with the girl when the reason behind it was that he feels that he hurt her too much and he don't deserve her. I find this sweet too! I'm hopeless. Usually in this situation, i want to slap the sense into the person.
Maybe I'm getting desperate. Who knows...
In Japanese culture, two person don't usually call each other by their first names but rather the surnames. By calling their given names, its to show intimacy/closeness. So when the guy call the girl by her first name, i found it sweet. Ugh~~~ this is irritating. I'm irritated at myself.
At the same time, i no longer feel that the normal heart roses/ bouquet, balloons, chocolate, candles or one knee proposals on a cruise are romantic. To me it's too cliche. Ring in wine glasses and public confessions, to me, it's like "meh, cliche..."
So I've change my perspectives. Maybe.... Right now, I don't even know what I think. Which is very very irritating.
