Omegle In The Middle of the Night — Not a Love Story to Tell

Trying something new is a great diversion to forget something that keeps bothering us for a while. It keeps us busy and at the same time, it keeps us occupied for the time being. It lets us experience things we haven't done before which we somewhat find enjoyable and satisfying leaving us with new memories to treasure forever.

It's been a while now since I tried something new in my life. Well, not totally new because I have tried using Omegle and different chatting platforms where you can meet a lot of strangers online. What I mean is that it's been a while now since I tried using that platform AGAIN after how many months? Especially since this happened last July when I'm still focused on studying and preparing for our finals.

Do you want to know what happened? Here it is.

Last July we are assigned to make a video as a group about our topic in one of our subjects. We are given a week to finish the task. Even though most of us don't have any background when it comes to editing videos I am still thankful that two of my members have so they volunteered to make the video presentation. And as for our role in our task, we are going to provide needed information as well as play the voice-overs.

—————Fast Forward...—————

The day of the submission has come. Monday until midnight is the deadline. I am just waiting for our editors to forward the video to me because I am going to post it on our Facebook group as our final output. As a group leader or representative, posting our video is my duty. Being an editor is difficult, I experienced it myself. That's why I told the editors that don't rush and maximize their time. We can do it.

So I've waited. Until 11:00 in the evening hit the clock I don't receive any messages on my account. Their last chat is that they are now finalizing the video and they will send it soon as possible. I trust my group mates because I believe in them, so I've waited patiently.

However, I can feel that I am already sleepy at that time so to keep myself awake I thought of visiting Omegle. I also entered 'talk' as part of my interest to filter out strangers that are asking for different kinds of entertainment. If you are using Omegle you know what I'm trying to point out. I don't want strangers asking me for some n*des, you know how wild the strangers on that site can be. All I want is peace lol.

Upon entering, I met this girl. At first, we are chatting in English but as time goes by when she said something funny and I replied it with "AHAHHAHAAH" as my laughing expression. She then asked me...

"Wait! Are you Filipino?"

I asked her back how she was able to say so. She told me that my laughing expression says it all. Don't you agree with her? We Filipinos often use exaggerated"AHAHAHAH" instead of lol or short term for "laugh out loud".

Moving on, our conversation continues. I got some info about her. That she is already a graduate of Psychology in the university that I forgot to remember today. And she is 23 years old. I thought, ows too old for me but I'm ready to be a sugar baby charot! Until I got the courage to ask her...

" If you don't mind, what are doing here? Are you looking for something?"

She said that she is single and actively looking for someone. I then said...

"I'm sorry but I'm not looking for a partner right now."

Do you know what her reply is? 😭 She said.

"Hindi naman kita tinatanong kung available ka ah" —with a laughing emoji

Or in English

"I'm not asking you if you're available, I just told you"

Oh my gosh, the assuming me lol. I cannot! The embarrassment.

Sadly, she lagged so I decided to end the conversation even if I want to spend chatting with her. At the same time, my group mates already sent me the video so I need to post it as soon as possible because there are only 3 minutes left with us.

And that is where my Omegle experience ends.

CLOSING THOUGHTS

I already shared this experience of mine with my friends and they all laugh at me! They said that I assumed too much. Sorry, my fault lol. But to be honest, I enjoyed talking to that person so much even if I didn't get to know her name. A not typical encounter to have, right?
