A Girl You Admire From Afar: Rubie Baby By Donald Fagen




Ever had one of those experiences where a girl walks in and all the guys have their sights on her. She's physically perfect and high class to boot. As much as she captured your heart, you know you're in for a competition since she's now the object of every guy in your place. Despite the uphill challenge, you'd still go for it cause you can't let her slip away. Whenever I hear the song "Rubie Baby" by Donald Fagen, I remember these situations.

Back in my highschool days, you'd hear a lot of stories regarding this kind of situations. You want her so much but don't know how to win her. Those who have the guts, keep on until they win or see her go to someone else. Those who are daunted wind up admiring her from afar and are left with fantasies about what could have been. Either way, somebody got to win and somebody's got to lose.

Whether we admit it or not, we all had our experiences in this kind of situation. Atleast we know that woman has substance or she wouldn't have fallen for an ordinary smoe. For those who were able to win her, I have to tip my hat to them for they really went the extra mile. For those who didn't better luck next time. There are other fish in the sea.
