Love and Lust in the Gray Area

What is a gray area? As defined by Tina Pamintuan in the premiere issue of HIM magazine, "it's the new relationship, this place with lots of spontaneity and sexual energy, but with no demands and promises - if you can handle it, it might just work well for you."

Here are some more excerpts from the article:

When you have to make a choice and don't make it, that in itself is a decision.

It's something, not exactly nothing.

I'm sure we're all very familiar with this situation. You establish that you don't have a status. Then most of the time it gets complicated when one party wants more than the other is willing to give. It's usually the woman, mainly because, emotions aside, women can't put emotions aside, especially if she is sexually involved.

Someone once told me that even if you press the "pause" button on the relationship, you can only hold back for as long as you can, but you can't stop emotions from developing. Feelings are inconsistent and unreasonable.

...butterflies live in the gray area - that amazing feeling of being in bliss and being excited to see the other person, not knowing what they are doing, and thinking of them thinking of you.

Celebrate the gray area... the element of surprise, the unexpected burst of emotion... there are many advantages of being in limbo.

Keep in mind that an "erotic friendship" is a temporary relationship. You can't stay there forever.

Our masks conceal what our false hearts fail to admit.

Who is Maan?

Very talkative, very frank to the point of being tactless. Major hyper active and super kulit. Tampuhin, selosa and madalas may topak. Psychotic but bearable most of the time. Pakialamera. Addicted to those excel quizzes and surveys forwarded through e-mail. Have learned how to say no to FREE FOOD and resist the temptation of buffets. Listens to The Morning Rush with Chico and Delamar and is a major fan of Sex and the City. Fiercely loyal to friends (especially the under dogs). Can't dance, can't sing, can't act but very OA (Outstanding Actress). Doesn't smoke, drink nor do drugs but definitely a great girl to hang out with (sagot ko na ang kwento). Cynical on the outside but a hopeless romantic deep inside. Tries not cry over a guy but will shed buckets of tears while watching a movie. Escapes from the real world by reading books, watching movies,and tv shows. Dreams of travelling the world someday and joining The Amazing Race with a friend who knows how to swim, ride a bike and drive a car.

...Nostalgia...
