if you guys have been visiting my blog,
you would have noticed that there's a 'hot' conversation going on in the tagboard.
between a, me, and z.
it's regarding the partner.
apparently,
people are saying that he appeared to be stucked up, arrogant, etc.

well oh well,
words can always spread isn't it?
let me give you one example.
have you ever played 'pass the message'?
when a group of people sit in a circle and there's someone who will start off by saying a lengthy message, afterwhich everyone in the group has to convey the message to the last person?
how often does the message get disrupted and by the time the last person said the message, it might be a whole new message or a message that is being altered?
quite often.
why?
because some people use selective listening.
they chose to select only those words or phrase that are of interest.
the other words or sentences are being ignored.
so which is why when you heard stories, rumors, just don't bother because it's has been passed down and it might been changed.

so stories, rumors are being passed down from people.
however it's you yourself can choose to believe or discard it.
you might tend to believe because you don't know the person who is being rumored well.
or you can discard it because the people who are taking about the rumored person is jealous, unhappy, etc.
it's your choice.

however it seems that a, my dear blog reader chose to believe it.
because she heard from people.
a,
i have a question for you.
how reliable are the sources?

hi a.
how do you know i'm humble?
have you ever talked to me?
or met me?
because i know people tend to think i'm arrogant due to my face structure.

do you know the reasons why i have a blog?
one of it is making people like you and the others know more about me, my character.
because people have always mistaken me for someone arrogant, pass some unpleasant remarks and some might not even like me.
come on,
face it,
in life there are bound to be people who doesn't really like you.
so which is why by having a blog i want to correct people's misconception about me.
because when they read about me,
then slowly they will 'judge' me.
i hope my sincerity and honest opinions will help people know the person i am.

extract from a's conversation.
a: "..... im nt judging u cuz my bf is an only child as well but he feels lyk ur well to do backgrd makes u a bit arrogant sumhw.."

a,
you are not judging my partner but you are comparing my partner and your bf.
why the need to judge?
shouldn't you be lucky that your bf is not like my partner?
every only child are not the same.

a: "..... i just feel abit offended by ur fiance's treatment towards sum ppl n i heard stories abt his arrogance as well..maybe im just too sensitive..haiz"

a,
who are the some people you are referring to?
have you seen it personally how my partner treat people?

a: "cuz my bf also very quiet n wen he sees mut,he feels intimidated by his cockiness..i pity my bf seriously"

a,
what cockiness are you talking about?
your bf is quiet because my partner is 'putting up a show' so which is why he feels so uneasy?
i know the partner for 5 years and i don't think he ever act cocky in front of his friends.
he's natural with his friends and he don't put up a show.

a: ".... i jz dn lyke da way mutalib behaves sumtyms..hes got a big ego ;("

a,
what big ego are you talking about?
to tell you honestly,
i have even bigger ego than him.

if you would like to know my partner better,
maybe we can have a double date.
afterwhich at the end of the date,
you and your bf can judge for yourself whether he is one arrogant, stucked up, and those-negative-comments-you-gave-because-you-heard-from-people kinda guy.

because i know he is not.

how?
a double date to know more about mr ("arrogant") mutalib and ms ("defensive") atirah?
=)

honey,
i'll stand by you because i know it's untrue.
