One Two Three Four Five Six Seven…
The earliest multiplication table, back in primary school which I can first memorize was the multiply of seven. Even God created the world in 7 days. To me, seven is a perfect number. Even the sins come in seven. Chinese also think seven is a strange number. Remember the movie, Seven Swords? The heroes come in seven as well.
It just stirs me that even in a relationship be it boyfriend/girlfriend or marriage, there’s thing called “Seven Years Itch”. According to the freedictionary, the seven years itch means “if someone who is married gets the seven year itch, they become bored with their relationship after about seven years and often want to start a sexual relationship with another person.”
Why it stirs me was that I have a friend, whom just broke up with her boyfriend after 7 years of relationship. I felt sorry for her. In fact, I don’t really know what I can do to help and ease her pain. 7 years isn’t that short nor long either. Just like that, it ended. All I can do was be her ears. Listening and spend more time with her. Which is what I do best.
But I manage to see some of my couples friends manage to pull it through. Maybe after all, it is depending on the person. How the person honor and cherish the relationship. Definitely, the itch will always be there. Just like sweets, if you leave it then the ants shall come. Don’t tell me that if you give the cat the fish, the cat won’t eat it?
Before I forgot, how about the 7 Wonders of Ancient World? So, anyone here can tell me about the Seven Year Itch. Is a reality? I don’t know. Just checked with another friend, and she claimed that Ekin Cheng suffered the Seven Years Itch with Maggie Chew. After that he was with Gigi, but ended up as victims of Seven Year Itch.
That’s why I am checking with the rest of bloggers. An chua?
