10月29日 High With The Platboys[ Just One of Best MSN Spaces ]
![]() "There's gotta be more to life
Than chasing down Every temporary high to satisfy me.."*
![]() Dear Gabrielle,
Ok, here's the interesting bit.
Every single one I know have been asking..
"How are things going with Tristan?"
As you recall Gabe, I met and fell in love with Tristan on one sultry July night
The next day, he had to fly back to Arizona. Tragic.
Cut long story short. Tristan flew into London last weekend! How exciting! After four months of long distance craving, we finally got to meet again!
All should have been smooth, right? But it is me, we are talking about. Smooth has never been in my Life's vocabulary
The twist arrived in the form of Vittorio, romantic prospect turned platonic friend. He called. Unknowingly and some would say, rather naively, I answered his call.
Wrong move. I have never seen a man fly into a dramatic rage before. You'd think slamming plates and doors is a girl's domain? Well, you have not met Tristan!
Miaow!
"But Tristan, he is just my friend," I tried to defend myself afters.
"Impossible, Elle! A man and a woman cannot be friends. Someone always wants something more.."
His logic rung like thunder. Whoa Nelly! He actually got me cowering!
"I don't even know why I am so mad," he sulked.
"It's not like I even want a girlfriend!"
Ouch! Some boys know how to press the right button!
I spent the whole night desperately trying to explain the concept of platonic friendships between a man and a woman.
"Tristan, I have my best girlfriends, the Seraphims.
They empathise and put themselves in my shoes. It's a comfort thing." I treaded ever so carefully.
"And then, I have my best male friends. The platboys."
He stared at me suspiciously.
"The platboys challenge my point of view. They give me a male's perspective. I put myself in their shoes."
"So your platboys give you advice about the men that you are seeing?"
His eyes widened in disbelief. Mine widened with wonder. Was he finally getting my point?
"That's bull, Elle. "
Err, maybe point not taken.
"Male friends are only there as standby until the right moment comes when he can replace your boyfriend."
He stated matter of factly.
Funny that, Gabe. I have been single for six months now. Yet, none of my platboys have pounced on me
So okay, I am not saying that there are absolutely no sexual tension between platboys and me. There are moments.
But you know what? Lust rates nothing to hard rock friendships. Therefore, we have learnt to do nothing about it.
Tristan did not buy my theory. Fine by me. Everyone's entitled to their own opinions.
I am entitled to mine. Mine says,
"Thou shalt not give up hard rock friendships
over temporary highs. "
So here's one for the platboys. That's you, Gabe, and Brendan and Kevin and Dude and Amadeus...
Cheers for your constant highs, boys!
Passionately High, Elle xo
