A question

"Beauty is not in the face; beauty is a light in the heart" - Kahlil Gibran

“Tell me if girls like it if they receive attention from guys, tell me if they don’t?” It was such a simple question but yet it caught me by surprise and left me dumbstruck. Simply because I haven’t really given much thought to it. On a serious level, it actually depends on the kind of attention that is given and the person who is giving the attention. Of course, if the attention comes from someone you fancy or someone who is nice or respectable, it can be indeed flattering. But if it’s some stranger or some bummer on the streets who do nothing but ogling at girls and make wolf whistling sounds the moment they see a hot sexy girl on the street then that’s not even in the least flattering but rather disgusting. But as much as how respectable or nice that person is, the kind of attention he gives to the girl is rather important. If it’s those every day kind of smses or insisting in knowing where you are going even though your ties with him are nothing but purely friends, now that’s what I call a turn-off.
But on a more personal level, I certainly do not find any form of attention given flattering. Maybe if I was younger and naïve, I would have indeed find it flattering, but now, rather I find it to be more of an insult because of one reason. Simply because the attention given is for one motive and that is because they are interested in you. Common, don’t tell me guys give attention to every single girl even those they are not interested in? Well, see what I mean. This also brings me to another issue which is; would they be interested if you are not beautiful? Would they be interested if you were big and ugly on the outside? The fact still remains that outlook beauty still comes into play. As sad and cruel it may seem, that's the reality of life. I know cause i've been there. Bottom line, it comes down to one thing, it’s only when they are interested which maybe because of your looks then they start giving you the attention, when they are not, would they even bother?
Well of cause, I am not saying this on behalf of the women kind or stero-typing the male kind but rather, this is only based on what I feel, based on what i went through. Many others may disagree on what I may have said, but seriously I don’t care because everyone is entitled to their own opinion. =)
Till then..Tkc ppl..

p/s: I love this song that is playing rite now a lot. =). Simply because everything about it represents me and the way i feel about everything. Heh.
