Bridge and Love
the other day i was watching turn left turn right while having the weekly bridge session when this suddenly struck me: bridge and love as portrayed in turn left turn right have so many similarities.
Seeking true love (centripedal...love pedal...lol) is like finding a eight card fit. Basically, when one fall in love, most people will not go straight to the person and tell him/ her. But they would tend to go on a long term coying, meaning trying to make that person be aware of the feeling he/she has towards him/her and at the same time find out what the other person thinks and whether him/her has the similar feeling. This is just like in bridge when we know our cards and uses different techniques of bidding to tell our partner what we have and at the same time try to know what our partner have.
Then, if a fit is find, of course you will establish the relationship and try to make the contract. If not, however, you will just have to stop bidding and pass when it is too dangerous to go on, so the at least you can still be friends and the situation will not get too bad (as according to my notes on rebidding, it can save your team from elimination).
A relationship can involve more then two parties too. In turn left turn right, the main characters are prevented from xiang reng by a weird doctor and song wai mai de nu hai. Well, isn't this like the opponents bidding preemptive bids in order to prevent the partnership from bidding properly so that they may not find their eight card fit or at least know less about each other's hand so it is harder for them to reach and decide on the proper game
humm can't think of anymore now...it has been too long since igot the idea, many thought are lost...i'll add more when they come to me again. any one who read this may suggest some more similarities...then maybe we can come up with a 'love birds' guide to basic bridge'....lol
