Hi, nice to meet you!

Have you ever thought that some things are never meant to be? Have you ever thought that signs are trying to tell you something? Have you ever thought about signs around you?

Have you ever thought about how did you meet all the people you know? Have you ever thought about people you once knew... somehow, somewhere?

Quick example

This Iranian guy, I mentioned earlier on..He started to come to our language group..never talked to him..never knew his name..or to come to that - never knew bloody thing about him. . . except the fact that he's from Iran..

One day..don't know why..I told my roommate that judged by the package, this guy fits the bill perfectly for me..nothing more. Just..to give her a bit of my taste in men...to be accurate - the looks I like. He is big. I like big men.

That was it.

Then we ended up in the same group during a teamwork practice and we had a tiny row about something which we bet on..and who was right?! Well, that's irrelevant of course..(I was right...though..).. Laughed a lot together.

We held our last class in the pub..after everyone was gone..we stayed..for a bit longer..for couple of pints longer..plus two other people..Usual jadijaadijaadijaa..exchanged phone numbers after and so on..Laughed a lot..

First..he tried to call me..missed calls..I was at work

I tried to call him back..in vain

Few days later..

Two missed calls and a voice mail..saying.."something jaaddi jaadi, busy..new work..jaadi, jaadi..exhausted..jaaadi, jaadi..call me back, please". I was at work again..I think..

Then I called him - he answered..to say "Busy, busy at the moment..sorry" I said " ok, no worries, see you later".

Then he had called me..well anyway - you got the picture..

And all that sort of things make me wonder..is it not meant to be..I mean..I have no interest in him what so ever (in case you were wondering)..well..maybe just as an acquaintance to get together in the pub once in a while..but that's all..But still - are some things just not meant to happened?! And should I notice those signs..are they trying to tell me something..or are they testing me..Should we ignore the signs?

Oh, jesus..what am I talking/writing about!

But when I think about how I've met all the people I know and the ones I knew ..it is quite amazing which ways destiny has for us to walk..how total strangers get together by coincidence..or how ever you wish to call it

Think about your partner, husband, friend or just someone you know..and try to remeber how you met..there might be a funny story behind it..

Ok another example..how I met Anu.

we went to school together..by the age of sixteen we ended up in the same class..

I attended school..occasionally..didn't have much time back then..for school..it never occurred to me that I should make an effort to try to talk to her..we were too different..

Now it turns into two stories..The one she knows and the one i know

Her version - after shaving my head, all my school acquaintances suddenly disappeared (not that I cared about those two faced hypocrites..sad, sad people....) and I knocked on her door and asked her if she wants to hang out in my place..And that's how it started

My version

My other classmate ( since grade two)..got this sudden interest in her..a crush..and ..well..I guess I couldn't beare the thought him having anyone else in his life and I wanted to see who did she think she was..and of course..after half an hour I realised.that she's going to be around..and I better get to know her..best decision ever..

And all the people you meet in your life..the way you do..

Oh..like my ex! I rushed into a flat party because I needed a sober driver..and there he was..
