Having spent a whole 3 years in a catholic homogeneous high-school makes me expecting too much for the definition and image of a boy (or man, considering my 20-something age). Since I've been educated to be an independent woman, I expected man to be at least more independent than me, the gentleman ones, the strong ones. Because no matter how independent and strong women are, we got weak sides that we always wish men could cover.
But spending my last 3 years in an environment where men are 75% of the population makes me realize that men are human after all. They can't always be strong, they can't always be the gentleman who just give you their coat when the weather's cold or give you their seat just because you're a woman. No, they're man, but also human.
It make me realize that the concept of relationship between man and woman that has been in my mind for a long time is fairly wrong. I always expected a man whom I'm gonna be with for a period of time or the rest of my life is that extremely strong man who help me, who cover my weakness, who..... who basically is just an accumulation of imaginations I made of how a man must be.
I was indeed wrong.
Relationship is about completing each other, right? None of both man and woman need to be stronger. None of both need to be more gentleman or the feminine one. Because we just need to complete each other's live and smile together wherever live brings us to. We just need....... to be human.
Some just got their early luck to find the one that complete their live and whom live can be completed at same time...
And I just need to wait a little bit more for the right one. As simple as that. No need to be in rush, no need to be freaked out, Yuni. だいじょうぶ
