I just found out that I have a "Kind" and the label surprising enough is given by my best friend. We have been best friend since 2003, due to the reason we used to work in the same organization, we shared the same interest for outdoor activities and we often involved in a lot of programs. I confided in her my secret two years ago, because she confronted me and asked me directly, so being best friend, I cleared all of her doubts of me. It is comforting to know you have someone you can be open about who you are.
Now, I regret telling her, beside the labelling, today she said "Please don't call me sayang or yang, I feel uncomfortable with the terms especially if it is coming from you". I sometimes call people sayang, even my students but the intonation is not the same as I call someone I love. I feel offended when she made the statement. It's bad enough to be label as a "KIND" as if I am a freak of nature but to say that statement and indicates my touch is "haram" is one thing.
Maybe this is the relationship that I should consider to walk away from... hmm
