There are cities with which you have a love-hate relationship. You have known him since forever and you value what he means to you. He will always be a part of your life, and yet, there are so many things you hate about him. In a way, I guess that is inevitable. Like Courtney Love moans in "Doll Parts": I love him so much it just turns to hate! However, if anyone else has anything to say about him, you will always stand up for him and defend him with everything you've got. You've just known him for so long that it doesn't matter if you hate him anymore. Yes, I know... Complicated. Ulaanbaatar.
Then there are those that never really worked out. You have always checked him out from afar. You met once, you clicked, it was all beautiful and sunny... But unfortunately, life took you on a different tangent. Because nothing really happened in this case, you still fantasize about him and never lose faith that one day you will get the chance to know him better. London.
You know that one that seems to be so beautiful and intriguing on the outside, and yet, for some reason there is just no chemistry? No matter how much you try to keep an open mind and get to know him more, there is just an undeniable lack of chemistry and coldness there... Riga.
Then you have the exotic and slightly dangerous one. No matter how much time has passed, he will always be close to your heart, with all his rough edges. But you have moved on and he has become a thing of the past, and you're both okay with that. New Delhi.
There are those that played a major role in my growth in a short period of time, there are those you wish you knew better and so many others that are yet to be discovered.
As for New York? I don't know. Nothing is clear at the moment... I am past the infatuation phase and now there is an impending break ahead. But something tells me we just might end up getting married someday :-P
