Maybe we got lost in translation
"Maybe we got lost in translation, maybe I ask for too much."
I always admire Taylor Swift for always establishing a good connection to her listeners through words and melody. Even though you did not go through her pain, you can feel exactly the emotion she wants to portray. It's like you can feel a knife stabbing to your chest, killing you slowly. Just kidding! I am just overreacting hahaha. I am a lowkey fan of Taylor Swift. What differentiates me from other Swifties is I seldom flex and tell other people that I idolize her. I am already content in listening to her songs for years, memorizing some of them, and following her on different social media.Ā
Anyways, Taylor Swift isn't the main topic for today. I just want to vent and connect my current situation to her song "All too well. Sorry guys medyo madrama 'to kaya mag-ready na kayo ng tissue at palanggana, charot. This blog will be about my current love life status. To start with, I decided to finally halt what's between us, to this person I have been talking to for 4 months.Ā
I met this person on Omegle four months ago. It was already late in the evening when my boredom engulfed me. So to cure my boredness, I decided to find someone on the internet to troll or prank. The first thing that entered my mind where I could do my plan was the online chatting platform called Omegle. My scheme is to be friendly at first and then when I think that they already feel comfortable, I will invite them to do something. When they accept it, I will end the chat HAHAHA. I spent my time trolling for almost half an hour, not until I matched with this person named Clarence. He's friendly, talkative, and energetic! Since weāre vibinā, I got interested and invited him to continue our conversation on Telegram. Months passed and we continued to exchange messages. We also developed a romantic connection and confessed each otherās feelings. We also decided to reveal our true identity and shift from Telegram to Facebook.
Everything seems destined and the universe has already made a move to make us meet that night. For the first time, our relationship made me believe that destiny is true. How fool I am for thinking that way hahaha.Ā
Like in any other relationship, we got less interested in each other. This started when I got busy realigning myself; changing my unhealthy routine, focusing on my goal, and loving myself more. Even though that means less time with you, I tried my best to show how much I love you and how ready I am to commit. However, it looks like you misunderstood me. You gave the same treatment that I gave to you; you respond with less excitement and enthusiasm. I am hurt but I kept it with myself since venting out what I feel just shows how hypocritical I am. Days pass and I canāt take it anymore, I courageously open it up to you. We had an argument, you told me that it was me after all and he is just reciprocating what I am giving. I am sorry if I ever make you feel that way. After we calm down, I suggest that we should take a rest for a while. You agreed but after that, little by little we became strangers. I still tried to reach you but I never receive or feel the same energy you used to give. To respect myself, on new years eve, I decided to stop whatās between us. I didnāt say goodbye, I just greeted him a happy new year.
I never thought or expected to be in a circumstance where I could understand what Taylor Swift was trying to say in her lyrics. Normally, I listen to this song because I am amazed by her ability to utilize the song to convey her experiences and emotions.Ā
"Maybe we got lost in translation, maybe I ask for too much."
We got lost in the flow and misunderstood each other; you didnāt understand me or maybe I didnāt understand you. However, is it bad to ask for something?
āBut maybe this thing was a masterpiece ātil you tore it all up.ā Ā
What if this is not my fault and you just manipulated me into thinking that it is me?Ā
It's amazing to think that the song I was only hearing because of admiration and appreciation is now my heartbreak song.
