Random russian date
Thursday, after sending phillip off at the airport. I was slightly tipsy from all that beer and decided to catch the train back home and was slightly disoriented.. I get lost easily here.. Its a typical ‘Mel’ thing.. So I asked the closest person next to me for direction.. “Is this the train going towards Jurong East.’
The guy whom I asked for direction wasn’t a local but thought he would know, like I said, I was tipsy. I Just wanted to heed back home. Turns out, he’s from Russia and he lived in San Fran for years, so we chatted for a bit, thru the train journey, mostly him telling me bout himself and I was Just staring blankly at his stubble and his curly wurly hair. He asked for my no ‘to keep in touch’ and I was gonna give him a fake no and he was like, ‘can u send me a text now on your phone’ and I’m like WTF?!…
I don’t understand, I guess I Just picked myself up a Russian man…And so, I got a date this Fri night with the Russian. Apparently train rides are now the place to pick up women… :/
Things with A is getting slightly intense but I dunno how its gonna work out. He’s really sweet, he got this thing called ‘insanity’ a workout regime shipped from the US and I know he’s also doing it for me and Phil was saying.. He’s in love to be calling me almost everyday cos he’d never called anyone everyday! Haha
Ive already told A what my stands are and he’s fine with it…. He cant see me as a friend but that’s not my problem right..? At times, I’m fearful to fall deeply and what if I love him more thn he does.. I want a guy who loves me more thn I could love him. I no I’m selfish in that sense… I like A! There’s something bout him, I’m not sure what, and he’s been thru a lot hard times growing up, I can empathise having been thru difficult childhood times. I feel like I can be myself around him… I dunno?!
I’m not ready to be in an exclusive relationship, yet at times, I feel its time now to settle down and heed back to Australia. Singapore’s lovely but not a place I see myself living in…unfortunately.
I miss Perth. <3

Settling down doesn’t have to be in one place–you can be settled wherever you are if you’re right the person! You’ll figure it out.
Yea, I’d wait till you get to the place you want to settle in dear.
Aw, Melly dear. Hopefully the date with the Russian is just… good. Hahah. I don’t know if you want to go on it or not. Hahah. I think, like Amy said, it’s probably best to settle where you want to be first before you find someone to share it with you.
@laytexduckie - Just drinks only with the Russian lah! Oh u know wot, the phone network stuffed up so A’s got his phone bill dwn to $700 plus.. Haha I thought he was fucked! lol 12grand!!! I thought even with 50% discount, its still a lot but yayyyy.. Haha. I might let him meet my mom and sis and see what they think of him… I really do like him.. :/ How are you? Ill skype with ya one of these days and talk about HK!!!! I’m so keen..
Ooh, exciting, Melly!
Whoever ends up with you will be one lucky guy that’s for sure! 
hehe And I’d love to visit Australia one of these days. I have family there too. Everyone there just seems to be so friendly. I’ve heard someone say that Australians are one of the happiest people in the world. Must be nice there. 
@TutelageOfTheMundane - not sure i understand good sir.. :/
@olwd - yeah tru…
How are you doll?! Aweee that is so kind of you to say. Your Man is one Lucky Man too babe!!!! I absolutely LOVE Perth WA than anywhere else in Australia to be honest. Perth people are the friendliest. I’ve been to Melb and personally in my opinion, i find people a little snooty there. Perth’s quiet and homey. I’m just really not a city girl! Haha..
@Annieothergirl - ANNIE!!!
@mellywelly15 - That’s because I left out a word. It was supposed to say: “…you can be settled wherever you are if you’re WITH the right person!” Does that make more sense?
ooh that sounds fun date with a russian lol how come you are living in Singapore? I’ve not been to WA yet but my parents travel over there in their caravan sometimes and they love it. It’s just pretty expensive apparently. I don’t so much want to settle down, but I would like a relationship, doesn’t seem to be on the cards for me at the moment though so now I’m just going with the flow! haha
@mellywelly15 - Lol. I’ve been a busy bee. Kids, work, and getting registered for school. Hope all is well with you babe. I will miss seeing everyone’s blogs on Xanga. That’s for sure.
I have a blogger but still contemplating on being active on there or not. Found a few Xangans already though. 
@TutelageOfTheMundane - is there even such a thing as the ‘right person’ I like someone so much whom i’m not even sure…
@isitreal_no - I miss being in a relationship and i wanna be in one but i don’t wanna be in one that will lead to hurts and also i don’t wanna be sleeping alone forever.. I just want that 1 guy!
@Annieothergirl - I dunno, i’m just taking each day as it comes, and not thinking too much of it and keeping myself occupied. Love is sometimes such a horrible feeling esp when there’s mixed feelings n i can’t seem to relax Annie.. I’m so excited and such a nervous wreck.What if he cheats on me? I don’t even fall in love and i’m afraid what if its just words… Talk is so cheap and i’m such a sucker… I love him now and i’m screwed.. I don’t want any other guy now… :/ Is this normal…?!
@mellywelly15 - Yes, there is a right person; but, the “right” person is made, not found. A “right person” is the product of chemistry, mutual attraction, COMMITMENT, and building memories together. Only the first two are out of one’s control.
Here’s hoping you get things sorted. : )
