Why I need a Sid

In the movie, "Sid and Aya: Not a Lovestory", Sid became wise because of his life's experiences. He's an insomiac, who's willing to pay for a stranger to keep him company. He met Aya, a hardworking barista-laundry-girl-carnival-actress, who happens to need money. They ended up in a business partnership, wherein Aya gets paid to keep him company at night.

 I need a Sid for many reasons. I need a guy who needs me - and who can meet me half way to meet my needs to. Sid was a jerk for sleeping with Aya, then asking him to be friends with her. But aren't all men jerks? Later on, he ended up realizing what he lost, making it up to Aya by going to Japan. I need a guy who realizes his mistakes, and spends a lot of effort making up for it. Sid is crazy, he spends money/effort on stuff which are impractical for others, but is considered an investment for him. I need a guy like that - someone who believes in something, someone who is willing to go against common traditions, just because.

 But where is my Sid? I don't know. Some day, i hope, i'll be the Black Swan for my Sid.
