last night, i met up with an old friend for movie and dinner. she consumed with work and family life that meeting up with her is scarce, when the opportunity comes around i go for it. not seeing her for the past 6 months, i have to say i'm quite surprised by some of the changes in her.
she seems more bold, has no problem saying NO, unlike before. no more *let me think about it*. i like the new her. but this new her also learn how to cuss uhh more openly, unlike before she can't even say fuck. she said its due to the new job and responsibility. hmm..ok, whatever rocks her boat and makes her day...lol.
while catching up, i told her i know she has a fb account but i want to know why she won't add me. she claimed she don't add no one she knows and that include family and friends. its her alter ego fb. i asked her to explain the need for an alter ego. she said, her alter ego, she married to her online gamer hubby, who she has mentioned to me before. she said, he's good to her. been there for her all these months. no sugar coating from him. she likes the idea of not having to deal with men offline, her *marriage* life online is all that she needs.
to be honest, i'm still bit confuse by the need of an alter ego (hope i spell that right). why do folks feel the need to be or act as someone else. do they feel the need to pretend or hide something. as a friend i try to understand and support her in whatever her choice be...however, something just kept nagging at me i can't let it loose... sigh.
i wonder if i feel any different if i do have an alter ego...maybe i be more uhhh loose, well mentally perhaps...lol.

"uhh hmmm" is exactly right.
Maybe I pretended for too many years. Now I'm just trying to me "me".
