Why do guys carry their girlfriends' handbags?

As I stay in the heart of the city, it is a common sight to see couples walking down around my neighborhood, especially on the weekends. Also, it is as common to see the males carrying the females' handbags when they are together.


Seriously, I questioned them rhetorically, must you do that? Is it a norm, an unwritten relationship law that the guys must do that to the girl? I wonder why. Not that I want my guy to carry my bag all the time though, but why do most of the guys voluntarily carry the girls' belongings and the girls end up not carrying anything???

Because as far as I'm concerned, my boyfriend will never carry my handbag, even if he knows that my bag is heavy. Ok perhaps he will, but to the extent that I have to beg him to do that, in which he will give a disagreed frown. But he still carries my bag in the end anyway, for maybe 15 minutes. After that, the bag will usually be back to where it was supposed to be originally, back on my shoulder. I have no idea how.

Just a random thought.

I was just officially kicked out as a cousin.

My cousins are going to celebrate Val's day this 14th. I know that since I came to Singapore I was never a cousin to them. I don't know if its jealousy or any of its sort.


Anyway my family (bro, sis, and I, which I believe make us their cousins as well), are not invited. ALL of my other cousins are invited except the 3 of us. All these years I have been trying to close one eye on their discriminated acts against my family, but now I just can't take it anymore. Why is it that we did that make you guys so hate us in the first place anyway????

Seriously guys, BE MATURE!! Since grandpa was still alive you guys never grow up. Is it too harsh to say that I am so sick of you?? It is not that I want to be invited anyway, but I think you guys should have a basic courtesy to at least tag me as part of you even if you know that I won't come because I am in Singapore and you are in Jakarta. And also, if you guys seriously have nothing against my family you guys should have already included me in all the lists that you had. But no, never.

I have never heard a single "merry christmas" or "happy birthday" or "happy new year" since then, even when I was in Jakarta and I met you during Christmases in church and I greeted you YOU ALWAYS BLOODY PRETEND THAT YOU DID NOT EVEN KNOW ME. And nope, not even a "hi" back when I "hi" you.

I just want to let you know that I am living a good life and I am on my way to success. If you want to kick me out as a cousin that I'm fine with it. I don't even need you guys anyway. I was treated as an outcast since I was 13 and I am way too fine to accept that fact.

Good bye guys. Don't invite me to your weddings too, I won't give you ang baos.
