this sec 3 boy came into the tuition centre where i work, today. he's a regular student there. but today, he came for counselling. few months ago, he started coming for tuition with a girl in tow. she must be his girlfriend cause i've heard him say that he's bringing his gf one day for tuition too.they're schoolmates. he's having one on one tuiton before his gf joined.
anyway, they broke up shortly after the gf first went for tuition with him. i knew all these by eavesdropping on conversations. haha. too bored there. so, the boy cldnt get himself back after the breakup. he stopped coming for tuition. then today he came for counselling, by his tutor's request, who is also my boss's wife, mrs tan. after that mrs tan told us that the poor boy is really lost. he has no direction now. it was as if the girl was his blood and soul. he said himself that he felt that he lost some kind of purpose in his life. his gf was the centre of his life. then when she is gone, 99percent of him is gone with her. that's so sad. worse that his gf is in the same sch. everytime they see each other at sch,he suddenly felt the whole world disappear n he cant do anything for the rest of the day but wallow in his own, i dont know, self-pity maybe.
so i was discussing with my colleague that teens nowadays jump into too serious relationships too early. and when they break up, they do not have the maturity and sense to move on, but remain stuck there for months. both of us noticed that there is a rise in PRIMARY SCHOOL couples we see outside. that's outrageous. firstly, primary school kids dont really know what love really is. they may come into some kind of misconception about love.then who knows, lose their virginity at 13 or 14 years old when they just start sec sch, and then realised when they're much older, that they've made a mistake. they may think it's love then, but really, it's stupidity. and they are not mature enough to know their priority, which is studies, so when they break up, they give up their studies too, though unknowingly. like this sec3 boy! poor thing. i think he's got depression. heard that he went for many counselling already. even his curch pastor counselled him. all futile attempts. sigh. youngsters! save urself til when u're older. then u really know what love is, and it will be a totally different experience from puppy love.
