She's into old glam rock bands that don tights. This man's into Greenday and the like, the few that wear eyeliners.
When his taste shifts to R&B, she'd be polite for a minute or two with a hush until she speaks up and asks for alternative.
Wonder how they get along?
He'll easily let her be a brat to her heart's content. Fortunately, she can be sensitive and will, although oftentimes her realization has to be paired with his patience, apologize when she goes too far to make him "uncomfy" already.
It's crazy, even maddening when they begin to banter and it seems like he has the power to make her say,"I hate you," because those are simply her last words.
But it works for them.
They get along pretty good. Better each time.
SHE: Mahal na mahal kita hindi lang dahil sa mga bagay na ginagawa mo para sa akin pero dahil din sa kung ano ako dahil sa pagmamahal mo. Now go figure out what that means.
HE: Whew. Okay.
Five minutes later...
HE: Okay. I got it. Because life is short, I'd rather show how much I love you now in case I run out of tomorrows.
SHE: You are simply one of the most wonderful things I've got in my life now.
HE: You like loving me back?
SHE: Very much. It's not just loving you back. I actually like you as a person. I like being around you. It's not just because I love you but being around you is light and happy.
HE: (Smiles) Now that's gonna shut me up.
SHE: Done fishing? (Laughs) I really truly like and love you. After all, I did consent to be your girlfriend in spite of all the tears, right?
HE: (Nods) I don't fish as much as you do. Your still the Fish. (Chuckles)
SHE: You can't after all beat the master!
HE: Okay. You're basking.
SHE: In your love? Most definitely.
They weren't this cool before. Not for a major long time.
He's not even sure what or how it happened but, somewhere around the bend, he stopped being scared and just let go.
She noticed the changes, too. This morning, she told him she couldn't believe how much he's been loving her these past days.
He's been loving her all this time but he didn't realize that it mattered a great deal to be a little bit more showy and still maintain genuine about everything.
And he's doing it now, instead of procrastinating.

kids should know that...
The tense-afraid type of procrastinator usually feels overwhelmed with pressure, unrealistic about time, uncertain about goals and many other negative feelings. Feeling that they lack the ability or focus to successfully complete their work, they tell themselves that they need to unwind and relax, that it's better to take it easy for the afternoon, for example, and start afresh in the morning. Usually have grandiose plans rather than being realistic. Their 'relaxing' is often temporary and ineffective, and leads to even more stress as time runs out, deadlines approach and the person feels increasingly guilty and apprehensive. This behavior becomes a cycle of failure and delay, as plans and goals are put off, penciled into the following day or week in the diary again and again. (wikipedia)
