for your advice

for seven long years, i have admired him, dreamt of him, loved him - unrequitedly.

when opportunity knocked, with a work at ortigas, at the same building where he's working, i grabbed it. it does not matter whether our offices are located at different towers. for as long as there remains, even a thin probabality of, a chance to see him.

the first time i saw him, i shivered. he was at the east tower canteen with his officemates, i suppose. and i think he did not see me.

the second time, my batchmate eric and i paid his officemate a visit, who happens to be eric's crushie. he saw me, but i don't think that he found out that i was working at the same building as he is.

the third time, was two mondays back. after the practice group meeting, tria, jen and i hurried home. it was past 7pm. i saw him, like one dream, as if he was floating right before my eyes. he walked past me as he turned left. he was walking so fast that i have to drag tria and jen. finally, at the intersection, he stopped, and apparently at a loss as to where he would go. i did not say hi to him. i was afraid, so nervous, my heart kept pounding (even til i reached home). he saw me.

the fourth time was monday last week. 7pm again. saw him smoke at the steps. he saw me, i guess. his mere throwing me of a glance was enough to keep me sane last week.

then last friday, as i was heading back to the office from my friday detail at the client, i saw a red jeep which i associated with "dags" (niq pretty knows a lot about him). i saw the vehicle enter pearl drive and when i alighted from the fx, and was about to cross --- it was as if it's a scene from those movies, i saw him! he was the one driving the red jeep. luckily, i was still sane enough to get his plate number (stalker ba?) and was able to cross the street safely. i waited for him at the lobby to confirm whether it was really him. it's him indeed.

you see, i was more than infatuated with this guy. he epitomizes the "one", that one with whom i was willing to take the risk.

the caveat though, is that he has a gf.

i would really, really want to talk to him about all what i feel for him. just that. no expectations. but i am not so sure whether i'd make a go.

what do you think?

well, nothing's etched in stone naman, right? besides, it's not as if you're stealing him from his girl, you're just going to tell him how you feel. throw the ball at him and let him make a choice :)

i think we had a talk about this east tower guy already. as i've told you, there's no harm in trying to make a move. =) the point is not whether you get somethin in return, it's that feeling of finally doin somethin about how you feel for him. stalker effect na nga e. hehehe. goodluck and enjoy the chase! -bom
