Ever been in a relationship that both of you KNEW was wrong ... but neither of you could say no?

I was having dinner with someone I had met on SKYPE a few weeks back ... and she was telling me about herself ( let's just call her CY ) .. and this guy she was seeing .. seems that he was an old flame of hers back when she was just out of school and in her first job ..

It was the same stuff you watch on soppy movies .. she was new in her first ever job outta school and he happened to be there to lend a helping hand .. friendship blossomed into a deeper appreciation of each other and subsequently into them dating ... but it didnt progress into what they would have wanted as he had to accept an offer in a position overseas ..

Time passed and they kinda lost contact with each other .. until recently when he was posted BACK in Malaysia .. and they sorta 'rekindled' thier relationship ..


All well and fine .. except for the fact that she's married now ..

I asked CY whether her there was anything she was not happy about in her marriage ... and she said NO .. it's fine .. in fact, she couldnt ask for a better hubby .. he's devoted and loves her very much .. they have a daughter together .. it's just that she can't seem to say NO to her ex whenever he calls ... so they have thier 'liasons' and stolen moments whenever hubby is on an outstation trip ...

Guess the MTV by Gloria Estefan really says it all ...


Can't Stay Away From You
Gloria Estefan and Miami Sound Machine

Time flies
When you're having fun
I heard somebody say
But if all I've been is fun
Then baby let me go
Don't wanna be in your way

And I don't wanna be your second choice
Don't wanna be just your friend
You keep telling me that you're not in love
You wanna throw it all away

But I can't stay away from you
I don't wanna let you go
And though it's killing me that's true
There's just some things I can't control

Your love is slipping through my hands
And though I've heard it all before
I know you're telling me the truth
I know it's just no use
But I can't stay away from you

Hold on to every bit of hope
that's all I ever do
Hoping you might change your mind
And call me up to say how much you need me too

And though you're leaving me no other choice
Than to turn and walk away
Look over your shoulder
I'll be there
You can count on me to stay ...

'Cause I can't stay away from you
I don't wanna let you go
And though it's killing me that's true
There's just some things I can't control

Your love slipping through my hands
And though I've heard it all before
I know you're telling me the truth
I know it's just no use
But I can't stay away from you


I just hope that this won't turn out bad .. cos someone is bound to get hurt ...
