what we want

sometimes i really wonder does everyone really knows each other? girls want guys to give them attention and care for them. but ain't guys human too? my friend and i had a talk on wednesday night. we talked through the night till 2am and it ended when it started to rain. by the way, we were in camp, lolx. there was one particular part of the conversation that i remember very clearly. he talked about his ex-girlfriend, how he care for her, how he willingly spend his money on her despite leaving close to no money for himself. the kind of effort he put into the relationship was unbelievable. it was beyond words. but she left him after 1+ years. the reason she gave was weird and irrational. for all he gave her, he got nothing in return. he thought he had found himself a 'wife'. he told me that all he wanted was a listening ear and someone who can care for him too. he was willing to give up everything to protect her, care for her... all he asked in return is as simple as that. why doesn't girls understand that? i only want someone who can be by my side, able to care for me... issit too big a request? bahz...
