Watched Absolute boyfriend till 6am in the morning. For some reason it touches my heart a lot. Its as if i were the main character - Riiko. Cried though many episodes and even cried in my sleep later.. HAHA. Was emo for a bit.





HAHA. This jap drama touches on many aspects of life. Truely.





Its not just a touching story about love between a OL and and a robot but its encompasses many life lessons.



It talked about family, challenge our understanding of love, it talked about being honest with yourself, it made me face and rethink about my life.



Riiko had many dreams but she never dared to follow through her dreams. Most of the time she gave up half way always believing that she was not good enough. She was never confident enough and was not honest with herself.



It made me think.. in life everyone has a dream. But seldom people truely am confident in themselves. Most people hide their insecurities with a facade of bravado or arrogance . Or people are ignorantly over confident of their abilities. A healthy sense of confidence is hard to achieve and i myself am still trying to get there.



Riiko is however a very kind girl who believes in the good of everyone, which is why she is always bullied and almost always framed by her good friend. In the drama she was lucky to have met people who also deceided to help her and see her good points.



She is the cream puffs she makes. Beautiful on the inside but unable to catch the attention at first sight. People are often swayed by beautiful exterior and beauty. If you want people to notice you for your inner beauty you need to portray your confidence in yourself an what you are doing and dress with confidence.

Never give up and lose sight of your dreams just because you have tougher competition. You may not be as good but ultimately believe you can be as good or better! Of course be realistic of your strengths and weaknesses. But in the end you must face whatever is in front with confidence and believe in yourself. For that instant forget your weakness and go there and give it your all!

Later on Riiko's father comes and looks for her. She thinks her father doesn understand her but he really does. He cares about her and knows her weakness that's why when he repremands her she feels that he doesn understand. When someone hits the nail on the head the hurt can be very deep.. because you have been avoiding it for a long time and you desparately don't want to acknowledge your weakness. If that person who tells you that is someone close the hurt doubles. But its because the person worries for you.. that's why he's so blunt. After all its better to let your child learn at home then be ruthlessly bullied by the society yes? At home, no matter what the intent is never malicious.

But the most important point of this drama is the defintion of love. Because Night is a robot without any selfishness his love is thus so pure n sweet.. its so encompassed around her yet not tying her down...

Its a true understanding of what's best for her. To give without expecting anything in return can be tiring but also sweet.

It also brings forth the point that marriage life and a status of Boyfriend and Girlfriend is very different. Kids can be a legacy left behind. Kids may not always follow the paths parents roll out for them. Heartbreak is inevitable. However its also beautiful.. heartbreaks brings forth the understanding of another individual person and involves the support and faith one can give to a loved one to push her on to the next level , to fly and reach out for the skies! A personal goal now becomes a shared one..

I've come to understand why the harsh words my father always told me hurt me so. I always blamed him. It caused me to fall many times , amke many mistakes , and then get up. It forced me to learn and be stronger. It showed me eventually how to deal with things and be a better person.

Love is an intricate and complex thing but it is a beautiful and pure feeling .Only if you overflow yourself with selfless love will you be able to give and receive love. You may get hurt though , its always a gamble.. even if someone misplaces your love don't ever lose hope because someone else will appreciate it. Just don't let people take it for granted and misuse it. Love is a gift , a chance you give others. Even if you noe u are going to love and believe in a bad kid.Be firm yet gentle with your love. Prepare that you might get hurt and disappointed but always have the mental strength to face it and do what's right! Easier said than done ! I'm still learning!

Always be happy confident and positive! (:
