My Hun Whom I Once Abhorred
I'm in a relationship with a guy, whom I used to abhor back then. He loved to tease me, which I abhorred it so much. Such an obnoxious guy. It wasn't that I was too shy to look straight at him in the eyes or to even have a small conversation with him, it was all hatred. I do respect him, of course. He's my friend's brother.
A year later, after a simple conversation, of course, I realized that he isn't that bad at all. I never thought of being in a relationship with him nor be in a relationship with anyone. All I needed was time to keep myself together again, but he was patient and he didn't give up.
For the first time ever, I received flowers from a guy on a non-occasion day. Tulips. I'm not really into flowers, but at that time, it felt somehow special.
For the first time ever, a guy actually took the chance of coming to my place in the city on a rainy day just to bring me the lemons I wanted. Not expecting anything from him, he also brought me some tangerines because I was getting a bit sick.
One time, I told him that I really like seafood especially crabs. Before I went back to the city for school, he bought me cooked crabs and sushi. It was so... YUMMY-LICIOUS!
Bit by bit, I came to adore his imperfection especially his height [lol] and the fact that he's Filipino. I was against to date to any Filipino guys due to their corniness, stereotypically speaking. He can be some times corny, but at the right timing.
On the day of March 5, 2010, I decided to give this relationship a shot. And since then, I started to learn, to observe, and to notice things from him... One is, I think I'm taller.
He makes me smile and laugh. I just can't stay mad at him. My anger may last at least an hour...
We played a game through webcam: Don't Smile Nor Laugh and the consequence...? Well, I live in a townhouse with 3 roomies in my room... I had to do 10 push-ups in front of'em, no matter what, and it was past midnight.
For our one month, he actually came to the city just to spend some time with me after his classes. He gave me a bracelet with my nickname on it. I gave him a photo key chain of us together and moi. He carries it around with his wallet chain. Last week, I lost the bracelet somewhere at my home... I didn't crazily panicked since I knew it was somewhere lying around near the kitchen... But eh, don't worry, I found it.
I know I shouldn't judge right away... Especially after two months of being together. But it feels so right that he may be my special someone.
Is your partner someone you didn't like before? Did you date someone who you once had such hatred feelings toward them?

Umm. This was an interesting post.
And no, I've never dated anyone who I hated originally.I found a datingsite """ R i Ch C h a t S .c o
m """ last week. It's the best dating planet for seeking the affluent
people
and sexy beauties. All singles are welcome
Someone learned a new word today....
not really. guys who annoy me usually continue to annoy me.
Aww, cute post.
@not_izzy@xanga - I thought I should use abhor since I feel that 'hate' is a strong word, stronger than abhor.
Me and my boyfriend(now) really were not attracted to eachother at ALL when we first met
it is weird how we started dating we've now been together 5 years
That is cute!
You just don't know when you come across your special one! :)
I used to dislike my first boyfriend. We used to be rivals until we started going to the same high school. Then I decided to date him because he seemed mysterious, etc, and I wanted to fix his problems...which was a bad idea. Should have gone with my initial impression :/
Sounds like you've got a case of prejudice going on there :p (in the Pride and Prejudice sense).
"Bit by bit, I came to adore his imperfection especially his height [lol]

That's fucking offensive. Even if you're not meaning to be, it comes off as really ignorant and shallow. You are literally calling his ethnic identity an "imperfection."
Three "abhor"s by the end of the first paragraph was a bit much, too -- but all in all, I'm glad your relationship is working out for you.
@SharonJo@xanga - Well, I wasn't trying to be offensive. First of all, I'm Filipino too and I just happened to dislike dating my own race based on my experiences and what I've seen and heard.
@SharonJo@xanga - i agree with the abhor thing. ugh. thesaurus anyone? mix up the vocab...haha
to answer the question: no, not really. but when i first meet people, i either view them as friends or relationship/fling/objects of affection/whatever. once you've been categorized as a friend (or just not in the relationship category) you typically stay there...
however, i did "abhor" my boyfriend's best friend, who also happened to be my best friend's boyfriend for a loooong time. my best friend and he broke up, but i still saw him more often that i would have liked because he and my boyfriend were still best friends. the guy treated me like shit ALL THE TIME. and everyone told me to just "get over it" and "that's how he is" etc etc until i finally made a point to my BF that it's not fair that i should just have to put up with abuse and lack of defense on my behalf. my boyfriend talked to his friend, and then the friend and i had our own talk later. thankfully, we are good with each other now...
@DiS1KrZi3PnAi@xanga - "First of all, I'm Filipino too and I just

Wow. That's just sad.
My husband and I TOTALLY abhorred each other when we first met. I thought he had the personality of lettuce, and he thought I was loud & crazy enough to join the circus. You really couldn't find more polar opposites.
It took several months of accidental, casual exposure for us to realize we both weren't so bad. (He lived in the same dorm as most of my other friends, so we kept running into each other.) As time went on, we actually helped each other "meet in the middle" with our temperaments. It's been 7 years since we started dating, 4 years since we got married.
Who cares!!! My boyfriend thinks the same with me. He- is eight years older than me, lol. We met online at an age gap dating site[A_g_e_m_i_n_g_l_e @ c.//o.//m]---a nice and free place for Younger- Women and Older Men, or Older Women and Younger Men, to interact with each other. Maybe you wanna check out or- tell your friends
@DiS1KrZi3PnAi@xanga - While I think it does change things if you, yourself, are Filipino, you definitely can't tell from the entry.
@sumtymesiwonder@xanga - Hah! God, I had a similar situation. Guy's friend was really touchy-feely; I bitched, and got the response, "That's just how he is...he touches me, too!"
Needless to say, things were never very serious with said boyfriend, so nothing improved in terms of friend-interactions.
Also! In response to the first part of your question-answering: http://www.laddertheory.com/
soooooooo cute..! i never hated the guy i love, actually. thanks for sharing your story :)
beautiful grammar.
aha. I'm in love with someone who i used to hate ;p
lmao abhor doesnt even make sense in some of these contexts.
I always think it's better to get some kind of reaction from the girl than nothing at all...girls usually ignore me since I tend to be very quiet...
I've yet to meet a filipino that fits the stereotype
no, never happened and usually the people I abhor, at my eyes, tends to be more hateful as time goes by... :)
