Does anyone of you ever feel like watching yourself in a movie where one of you plays the role where everything is perfect and everything is up to where and how you wanted it to be? Then again, from the recordings of your eyes, the reality is not really up the scratch, so to speak. There are many examples such as your first date, instead of good conversation and a kiss on the cheek at the end of the night, you probably end up with a shrug and (if you are lucky) a thank you. Surely that is far removed from ‘happily ever after’ doctrine.It gets a little bit more intense when you have to deals with the case of the ex(s). Whatever version of the past history tells, whether it was an amicable separation or crisis that required government intervention, there is a slight sinister thought not far off from every party involved of ‘returning the favour’ or the absurd idea of getting back together (not mutually exclusive, mind you).
If the chance ever reveals itself, fortunately/unfortunately, that you meet your ex, you will hope that the situation will be slighted to your advantage. Like other things that are bad for your physical or mental health, your ex will emits such ‘seductive aura’, the thing that stitched you up in the first place. But you know it is bad for you, the instant replay of the inconsiderate things that he had done to you in the past life. Your self – preservation program starts to kick in as you know he is very dangerous. Yet he extends an invitation and intrigue took you over.
On contrary of your expectations which undoubtedly will be crushed like a fly under your shoes, he is happy and he did acquire some level of faith in human – like emotions. Clearly, karma did some works on him but you were never part of karma’s plan of retribution. Expectations clearly are overrated. Reality has never come so swift and hit squarely on your face.
How do you steer clear of expectations? Or how do you minimize the sense of disappointment over unrealised thoughts? Well I have one advice, don’t have any.

It is totally utterly dangerous games of LOVE, that by any chance we all trying to avoid.
But unfortunately, we all falls in love so quickly or rather sentimental about relationship.
The minute I heard my first love story, I started looking for you, not knowing how blind that was.
Lovers don’t finally meet somewhere.
They’re in each other all along.
Rumi
Very true, ain't we all suckers! (pardon the pun)
