I feel like I've been watching a live version of "He's Just Not that Into You" or a less classy and unpolished "Love Actually" because dude we're not in London nonetheless another beautiful locale and we don't have the British twang that's so elegant and posh.
In order to maintain privacy and security for the persons mentioned and to prevent a lawsuits against yours truly all names shall not be disclosed. The identities of these individuals will be hidden by their new alter egos which I made up for them.
Set A:
Mr. Loner Artist and Little Ms. Sunshine have been friends for almost two years. They hang out, watch movies and basically do the fun things with their friends. The relationship is purely platonic. Until after a summer trip their friends started teasing them, in which Little Ms. Sunshine just shrugged off but Mr. Loner Artist didn't. It continued for months and Mr. Loner Artist was already harboring feelings for her all the while that she wasn't aware of. Two weeks before Christmas he told her and she freaked out a little bit. In respect and because of the friendship, she didn't bust him then. She gave her a chance but showed signs to him that maybe she's just not that into him and it might happen. Still Mr. Loner Artist was very patient. And clearly he's been mesmerized and inspired by her beauty that she even gave her a sketch of her face on her birthday. Still no feelings from Little Miss Sunshine. During a festival, Little Ms. Sunshine was becoming guilty that she's already hurting Mr. Loner Artist. To make matters worst when she saw her Ugly Ex-BF, she realized that she hadn't fully gotten over him despite of his hideous nature after three years. She felt a surge of emotions then she cried. She decided to do the right thing - by ending Mr. Loner Artist's perceived suffering. She told him the truth that she will not ever look at him besides a friend. Though she didn't tell him that she hasn't come to terms 100% with what Ugly Ex-BF did to her heart. Enter Mr. Dreamboy, Little Ms. Sunshine's longtime crush, who had just broken up with Bitchy Ex-GF after two years and a half. Now Little Ms. Sunshine is overjoyed in secret because she wanted Mr. Dreamboy for a long time. Intrusive and straight forward me told her not to squeal and show emotions so much in front of Mr. Loner Artist. I still am hoping that she'll realize how great Mr. Loner Artist is though she insists every single day that it's getting awkward but right now I think they are on a stage of rebuilding the friendship. Whew! I haven't given up the thought that Mr. Loner Artist has surrendered. Not yet, not now.
In Summary: Mr. Loner artists wants Little Miss Sunshine who got burned by Ugly Ex-BF and who also wants Mr. Dreamboy for a long time, who broke up with Bitchy Ex-GF recently. Complicated much?
Set B
Ms. Pretty has never had a boyfriend all her life though she's got plenty of suitors she never quite found "the one" among them. She works in this company for almost three years when she noticed Mr. Office Romance. It's been quite a while since they work on different floors. As they got to know more of each other in office outings and parties she felt something about him. She finally found someone she wants to give the honor of being her first boyfriend - the only thing going against her is her conservative and traditional ways of courtship and she will never allow herself to bend the rules and court Mr. Office Romance. He wasn't courting him either but he's been showing signs that he digs her like sweet talk, text messages about love, treating her well (he's quite stingy!) and more. Which left her confuse and perplexed every time. He's hot, then he's cold he's yes and then he's no... you get the drill. Our ever hopeless romantic was holding on despite of that until she finally received news that he already has a girlfriend from her co-workers! Up until this day she hasn't had the guts to confront Mr. Office Romance about it and neither did he had the balls to tell her if the news is true. But nosy and rumor mongers in the office confirm it to be real.
Set C
Last year Ms. Glamorous was dumped by Mr. Bartender after dating for almost a year of some pathetic reason that's just means he's a coward. Brokenhearted and lost, she turned to the comfort of her friends. There she met Mr. Oil Tycoon, friend of her friends, whom she was smitten because she was reminded of a crush from childhood. Mr. Oil Tycoon was also captured by her radiance and charm. At the same time he was also vulnerable because his long distance relationship for half a decade already has been rocky. So they were introduced and got to know each other and even went out on dates - even though he did not officially end the fractured bond and the same time Ms. Long Distance didn't even know about it. It continued and continued to the point of deepening connections. Ms. Glamorous was becoming ambivalent. He tells her he likes but couldn't put up a brave front to face and talk with Ms. Long Distance. She knows it wrong but the passion just takes over. It continued more. Let's say she became an adulteress. Finally her conscience overpowered her and then she confronted him but still he couldn't do the right thing. He just keeps on saying that he wants her but just couldn't end it with Ms. Long Distance. Ms. Glamorous couldn't take it anymore so she dropped him instead and got affected by it. She immersed herself in work until she met Mr. Multi Millionaire who treats her like a queen and was a guy that's so different from previous boyfriends. They became romantically involved then she got over Mr. Oil Tycoon. Now one year later, the wheel of fate turned. Mr. Oil Tycoon was dumped by Ms. Long Distance since they couldn't keep it alive anymore. When he checked Ms. Glamorous profile page that she is already in an amazing relationship his quest of winning her back just faded. It's his turn to get hurt, depressed and was really affected by Ms. Glamorous labelling him so yesterday. He' s sulking but of course as a guy he doesn't show it much. He is always pondering on the could've beens and would've beens. Meet Ms. Passive-Aggresiva, sometimes annoying sometimes pathetic sometimes aloof who I suspect has the hots for Mr. Oil Tycoon as evidence gathered by moi that's will definitely reveal their identities if posted here. If only Mr. Oil Tycoon has the same feelings for her. Sorry, honey. Lesson learned: Karma's a bitch, payback hurts!
Set D

Last time I check they had an awesome V-Day date and before that a fight because Mr. Younger Boy wasn't given enough attention.. Looks like Katy Perry's inspiration for one of her songs.
