This was my 1st post, so I will start with Teenager version (I am still young). Debating about teenage loners, and will use an example of my own personal experience.
Now days, portable device anywhere. By the advancing of the technologies, enhancing of the device features. People can have their own communication network anywhere, entertainment just a click of finger. From the sociological aspect, people cannot stop communicate to each other and life alone (at least for city life). Yet... all those ease of the technology, let people can create network by their own, communication to themselves.
Huh? Feeling something’s wrong? Who the earths that all the while talk to themselves? No need to question so much ... why? Cause now u already talking (thinking and communicate to make discussion by ourselves, ha-ha) Facts but not actually true. The point is people able to "talk" to themselves by the "feedback" from the portable devices - PDAs, MP3players, PSPs etc.
Teenagers get "entertained" by themselves so that need not talk to people to keep themselves company in the public area like in MRT, Shopping center, canteen, even toilet.... and all other places that u cant imagine. Became people's habit that "networking" by their own. Geez..... sounds very cold. Imagine advancing technologies and reducing the "human" and "human" communications.
Reason why??? Too many to list.. Maybe I provide an example from my own ... Why a guy will become loners.
1 day...launch time. I saw a friend (female) online in msn. It's since so long that I didn't saw her. So we chat a while. Of cos basically just some " Hi, how r u?" the reply "Still ok lor, still fine" etc. But we use to be some good old friend. So the conversation became more and more interesting. Then when proceed until the exciting part (not censored stuff). Launch time end, all need to back to station.
She asks:" Why always lonely ah? Can ask me and friend go out mar ;)."
I stun, so think for a while. Then I said:"Hey, how about we meet up tomolo and catch a movie, since we stay so near. 5 minutes way".
Then the gal said:" Ha-ha... sure. But I don't want to let ur gf beat up ;p".
Then I reply " Don't worried, fren fren watch movie don’t mind de ;p".
Then gal reply " Hee, Ok let's see".
Conversation suspended till I off work.... (But the fire & passion of me to watch movie already on).
Few hours pass then I felt abit anxious. So I sms her, " So how about movie?”
She replied:" Should be can lar... I ask another fren (Gal) to follow me go, she go I go ;p".
I sms directly to the gal she mention, and she agree to go for the movie happily.
Next day morning, the day that we going to watch movie. We 3 people on MSN together, they 2 start to discuss again... Suddenly her fren say she cannot go, due to the "XXX" reason. How about the XXX day (the day that she knew I going work). I felt like get rejected.
But she was a nice gal, so she replied:" Maybe I still will go.... see how"..... I felt recovered by a little bit.
Without failure, I book a pair tickets instead...
I happily wait for her for the movie... till the movie going to start. She Smsed :" Sry, think I really cant go d... next time bah".
Ooo oo.... a feeling of piercing and cutting the heart. "I get flied aeroplane".
Feel that is a stupid story right? But this appears again and again for other people. “I realized this, when I drinking with other fren (male).
Think got abit out of topic: p... (like more on personel).
Anyway, please feel free to leave some comment.
I will carry on more for the Real Life story.
