Les Français Romantiques
Friday, December 07, 2007
Sometimes, I find the french funny because they are so serious, that it makes their humor enjoyable...
Or romantics lang siguro sila by heart...
I read this in a newspaper called "Metro" ,today edition, letters from readers section.
Very interesting and romantic that brought me to sigh... And think... swerte ng girl ah...Sana ako na lang yun, haha.
These letters were written in french, I translated them to english language for your understanding.
Title:From elementary school days until today...
Gaelle. if my memory is fine, its like that how I called you.
We were on same school until college.
The one memorable time that I met you was when we had lunch in our school canteen on first day of the school.
One wednesday morning, we met again in Carrefour Grocery, and I think you were with your parents. Ten years passed. The memories are still fresh until summer(2006) a year and a half ago, in Nice,end of August,saturday afternoon.
You were discussing with a friend,in a small alley,near a shop.Your friend said something about me. Our eyes met, and you recognized me.But me, the stupid that is me,I continued my walk.
Sorry about that...
So,if you like,I propose we meet on saturday 15december at 17:30pm where we last meet a year and a half ago.Please come. Merci beaucoup.

aba eh, email kaya natin? Na save ko ang email add hihihi.
Eto pa:
Sourire enchanteur,regard malicieux
(captivating smile,intriguing look)
Train Station, Auber, Paris.
8:20,Tuesday 4December.
The RER Train entered the station, Direction Cergy.
You are in front of me, breathless(from running).We were mounting a jam packed train.Inside, I was there,very close to you.I cant find the courage to speak to you.And I cant stop looking at you every minute.
Station Charles de Gaulle,Etoile.
We went down the train to leave space for those going out the train.You gave me a small sketch of a smile,I was melting on the spot.
Gare de la Defense Station, you found a seat inside the train.I took my courage en deux mains,(closed hands)and sit next to you.
You are reading a book of Paul Coelho. I was almost taken aback and disturbed. I tried to read my book also ,but I cannot concentrate,because you troubled me so much.
Small, brunette,half long hair,les yeux noisette (nut colored eyes), intriguing look ,with captivating smile,you were wearing a jeans under your bottes.
I went down the train in Achères Ville,with full of regrets!!
Soon as I put my feet on the ground,I was annoyed that I didnt have the courage to get to know you.
If you are a reader of Metro newspaper,please do not hesitate to write me,I dream of meeting you again.

Ganyan mga french. They dont take initiative, they just look.
And suffer...Haha.
Sa Pinoy yan, may sipol ka na,may paswit pa!
Si Lolo nyo, a year nag look and look ke Lola nyo, before he told me his intentions...
Maybe because of my "blue eyes" and "blond hair"???
Romantic by heart ang mga french. And if they find a lady of their heart, they study her from afar,watching her like a hawk,everyday if possible, and if he thinks its her, thats it.Huli ka!
After a year nga lang....
Matagal before they decide, because it has to build trust first...
Musta dyan sa bansa nyo? How are men when it comes to ladies?
Or romantics lang siguro sila by heart...

How romantic naman kaya lang kaloka pala ang pagiging romantiko nila..Pero ang haba ng hair ng babeng yon, sobra!
Ang mga lalaki naman dito, kangarag! Depende kung anong level ang pagkagusto sayo. Merong tipo kang tsuktsakin lang, un! straight forward masasabi agad un sayo. They're very vocal, pag tipo ka, sasabihin nila yon sau (esp na pwede naman sa kanila more than isa, allowed dito yon) at di sila makulit pag sinabi mong dimo sila feel, stop sila agad (sa atin maangkin ka lamang hahamakin lahat diba?!) heheheh... Me mga konti na torpe, less romantic in terms na yong mga babae na ang hanap nila eh lalaki na yong nagbibigay ng flowers, chocolate, love letters charness or kung ano pang anik anik. Di sila mahilig sa surprises or I could be wrong - lahat ng ito'y base sa obserbasyon ko ;) In fairness, yong Ex ko naman eh an exception sa mga taga rito, huh!? ehehehe...

True, romantic hopeless ang mga French! But I like their poetic & mushy chracteristics :)
Wow, totoo! Akalo ko, ako lang ang nakakakilala ng one and only torpe frenchman in Manila. its been 4 years na 'friends' kami..look siya ng look, text ng text, email ng email and once lang did he ever make a move, pero tinangihan ko siya that night (stupid me pero medyo nakainum na siya at that time)..ever since then..wa na! 4 years na lola! Nakakaloka!
Pero super loyal at mabait naman. Kahit ano ang request ko, ninutupad niya, kanina lang inikutan niya ang muntinglupa para lang maghanap ng bottle ng artichoke kasi kailangan ng recipe ko.
Now he;s leaving for good, moving to San Raphael in VAR in three weeks. Am so sad kasi now lang I realize what a precious gem he is kahit hindi siya super pogi, he has a beautiful heart..*sigh* thanks for sharing this now I know na ganun pala sila! Hindi ko lang talaga kaya na ako ang mag first move..dalagang pinay pa rin (sos!) Hindi ko rin matanggap na aalis na rin siya na hindi naming pag usapan ang 4 years na nakaraan na 'friendship'.. feeling ko rin ako ang isa sa mga reasons kung bakit aalis na siya (long story din 'yun but it involved another frenchman..yes I know, another "sos!") ..Francesca help what to do? alam na alam mo ang ugali nila how should I handle this, I dont want to lose him.
Thanks for all the sharing. I really love your blog. More power and God bless

Di sila namimilit, pero they look and look like a hawk pa rin,and suffer, if ikaw na nga.haha!

Dito walang ligawan, pag wala silang pera sorry na lang wala silang lovelife kasi binibili nila yung mga asawa nila. Ewan, pero di ayos yung kanilang kultura when it comes to love (may love nga kaya?)
Proven....need I say more ?!---HAZE
Thanks Madame F for your advices and the link. Ipagkayanin ko na lang ng powers ko to have that courage like you.. thats why I admire you and your stories..sige, kung wagi.. baka maging neighbors pa tayo since only one hour sa highway lang naman Wish me Luck and thank you again ;-)
nangarap tuloy ako na may manligaw sana sa akon na French hehehe
Kakaaliw naman yan.
Meron kaya sumagot sa email nila? Parang ala-movie ang scenario. Romantic nga ang dating -lalo na siguro if i hear it in French.

Rosalie, tambay tambay ka lang sa kapehan, magkakaroon ka rin ng ka eyeball. Nasa Monaco ka, dami dyan guapo, may kuarta pa, kahit na employee lang bah.
Leah, lalo na sa french language, oh dear, kaka melt if they speak it properly with decency.
Sana dito kayo, and I treat you all sa coffee in Monaco. Hihihi.
One of my posts soon, photos nila.

romantics nga ba??? or torpe lang talaga... why through newspaper column? they should just write that person personally.
Proven need I say more?
Jo, I was thinking the same. But they dont know the name or address or phone of the girl.
So, they hope, hoping against hope, na mabasa...
Hopeless romantics nga kasi.
