I'm not a good listener. But yet a few of my friends and my family members like to share with me. I feel honoured and grateful. They must have choose me for a reason. And on my behalf, I have to be transparent. I will not offer any advice that will hurt them, even if I found them wrong sometimes. They have problems, things may be all over the place in their life. I can't put another wall in front of them. There will be another suitable time to talk deeply about that. When they came to me, they expect me to listen. I will keep that as a secret. Our secret. Until you spill it out. And after all, that's what friends are for, right?

I have problem of my own. But.. I don't like to share with others. It is not that I'm not put my trust on them, but I'm not good in story telling. I'm afraid they will misunderstand me, I'm afraid they will interpret it into something else. Because, I cannot tell the whole story. So, better I keep that for my own. Crying will make me feel better. And talking to my Abang will ease my feeling. Oh, how I love him so much.

By the way, I'm facing my friends that have problems in relationship, in their love life. Listening to them do affect me in such a way I can't express. They have a complicated relationship. So do I. We all have waves in our love life. But how we cope with that is the key. I'm not good in it either. But I learned. I'm still learning. Ooo Allah, please.. Please keep our love forever.

Yes, for a relationship to last forever, we have to have skills and knowledge. We have to learn. Family building is not something that we can just see how our parents did, how our surrounding reflect, it is more than that. There's so much hardship we to face, so much struggles out there, that did not happens a decade ago. Be it good, be it bad, it is something we must cope. So, building a family requires a lot of attention and knowledge. It is not easy. As to keep the relationship alive also not easy.

For those who are thinking of getting into a relationship or those who just tied the knot or may be anybody who wants to improve their relationship, I highly recommend you to buy 'Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus' by John Gray. I really fall in love with that book. It does describes woman's attitudes very well ( the characteristics reflect myself, and John Gray dont even know me..huhu) and it DOES describes men, I can say 95% true (as I compared to my male friends, family members and my Abang, sorry dear but you did treat me very well indeed).

The book describes the way men and women confront their problems, the way they think, interpret each other reaction, how they show love, how to avoid arguments and so many more. I gave this book as a wedding gift to one of my good friends. I just thought that they will appreciate as they read the the book. And I gave it to my Abang also. Hmm, I can see that we are more understand and respect each other and at the moment the waves bumping us, we are so supportive and give each other some space to take a break. It really works.

I have a pdf copy of the book, but I recommend you to buy it. You can feel it when read the book. And they have came out the new edition with an improved cover (very eye catchy). So, get your self one!

The new edition, sweet right?

Mine is like this one. Not so good but the content was a lot better than it looks.
