Once upon a time there was a lovely princess stranded on an island. The island, strangely enough, is full of ponds.. and each pond consist of different kind of fish. She doesn’t know any other challenging activities apart from fishing. One by one some exotic fishes got caught in the hook. She hasn’t got a clue of what type of fish they are except they don’t taste as good as they look.
Amazingly, it’s not only fishes that the princess encountered. She’d also dipped her foot into crocodile pond- and yes she did get bitten in the end and left a scar, pond full of water snakes that she got choked until she couldn’t breathe, and pond full of piranha that she wouldn’t even dare to enter.
The last pond she visited was a frog pond. She remembered thinking “hm..frogs are harmless, aren’t they?” So she kissed a couple of frogs despite their wet skin taste. All of a sudden there comes this tadpole with glossy spotty skin, enticing her: “princess, if you kiss me long enough I will turn into prince charming!”
So the princess did as what the frog told her.. desperately hoping it would soon turn into a gorgeous prince. After she had kissed the frog for few months, it filled her brain with fantasies. She hallucinated so much that she got intoxicated and lost her sense. The more she kissed the frog, the more hopes and dreams she had. Somehow along the way she felt that this frog is not good for whatever reason.
Luckily it didn’t took her too long to realize the hopes and dreams were nothing but deception and empty promises. The princess figured out that the frog she’s been kissing is a poisonous one, which will bring her to slow death and pain. She left the cute frog with her last strength and paddled into the sea.
As she swam across the ocean, few dolphins encircled her. She paddled and paddled until there’s a kind fisherman who’ll rescue her and bring her to a safe land.
Moral of the story? In the dating world, you will meet a lot of jerks, manipulative bastards and all those cruel men who are going to break your heart into pieces. You just have to put yourself out there and don’t waste your time on someone who’s unworthy of your affections. Surround yourselves with people who appreciate you. Never give up on love; a prince charming will find you one day…….

After reading (and watching) the famously-titled book and movie few times, it comes to my realization what the authors forgot to include when someone’s not that into you. Surviving from my last failed romance, I had gathered some facts when a guy’s slowly not into you. Here’s some tasty fillings to digest when your other half is no longer interested in the relationship:
1. he’s keeping in touch with his ex on regular basis
2. he flirts around with your friend’s gf.. right under your nose
3. he doesn’t add you on facebook (this is cheeky but true)
4. he put his profile up on online dating sites (and lied to you when you confront it)
6. his main priority is him, his mates, then you or us
5. he starts spending less time with you on email/text/phone calls
6. he’s becoming more secretive – doesn’t tell you where he goes, how his day was, etc
7. his new nicknames are mr grumpy, mr impatient, mr critical, mr not-so-fantastic-in-bed
8. he doesn’t tell jokes or tease you anymore, ie there’s no more fun side of him
9. he took back his house key (that he gave it to you previously)
10. he becomes more suspicious of you
11. he doesn’t kiss you before going to bed
12. he stops buying gifts or flowers for you
13. he only calls you when he needs company
14. he told you he’s working late.. all the time
15. he no longer includes you on his social activities with his mates, workmates etc
16. in fact, he starts hanging out with the boys more
17. he doesn’t intend to take you on any future holidays he might have
18. he doesn’t plan for romantic gestures (this includes dinner/sex/weekend-aways)
19. he no longer compliments your sexy outfit/body parts/anything that makes you attractive to him in the first place
20. he reassures you over and over that he loves you, but his actions say differently
21. he’s hot and cold towards you, ie being nice and nasty whenever he wants to
22. he avoids the (serious) relationships talks
23. he blames you for whatever reason it is
24. he doesn’t do what he says he will
25. he cancels on your plans at last minute, and always comes up with the best excuses
26. he treats you like a doormat, or worse.. a maid
27. he doesn’t say the “L” word anymore – because he can’t
AND finally…….
28. he didn’t try to fight for you when you said it’s over
