friendS-M-Ship

I've got a friend. He studies in my hometown. He is young. He is a nice boy. He's lonely.
Sometimes he sends me sms, sometimes he sends me "missed calls" in the middle of the night.

And when we do get a talking or sms-ing. We usually get right back to the point that he's looking for someone special in his life.

Young, full of tainted innocence in a good way.

I've never met the guy before. We just sms and talk online.


He's a recent converSMSation between us..

Joe: Do u know of any non-straight guys who r single? Intro to me can? Ha.

Me : What is your type? Physical and Personality-wise. Be Specific!

Joe: Type = non-sissy, a few years older than me. Personality=nice,not clingy, not childish. Added bonus:cute n more intelligent than me n can play da piano

Me: Build? Are you okay with long distance relationships? or does he need to be in KK?

Joe: Build = as long as he's not obese. Preferably slim. My build is not very good . Can't expect much. I don't like long distance. Friendship first. Need not be in KK.

Me: Need not be in KK but you don't want LDR? hmm...

Joe:For friendship it's ok to be long-distance.

Me: If it's friendship you're looking for, there are plenty to be found online.

Joe: Ya lo. How r? So bad. I wish I did better in my pre-u n got a place in UKM. Nvm la I'll just bear for a few more years.

Me: Well if it's a long distance friendship, how are you gonna keep it going? with your frequent famous missed calls? Like how we keep our friendS-M-Ship going, with SMS.

Joe: I want physical contact too. Someone to hug and sayang me when I want it.haha.

Me: Yeah I agree that sometimes the hugging and cuddling is much more important than the sex. It's what makes the reolationship more lasting. more special.


Joe: Of course la,but not everyone would hug you and sayang you. I'd hv got someone to do tht 4 me long long ago had i not grown up in perlis

Me:I grew up in KK so it's the same difference.

Joe: I feel very lonely sometimes though I'm surrounded by friends. Maybe coz they're straight.No one to share my inner feelings. It's a good thing my course is very hectic. It keeps me busy all da time.

Me: You know you can miss call me anytime you feel lonely.

It all comes down to wanting to be with someone, not because one is horny for sex or clingy for affection, but just someone to be with to share a life with. This wisdom coming from a 20year old. He'll make someone a great partner one of these days. I wish him well.
