cynical and logical

i want to be single.
i mean, i enjoy being single.
and i don't want a boyfriend.

why?

because i've seen WAY too many people throw their lives away because of a relationship.

take example one:
girl is good student. girl works hard.
girl gets new boyfriend. new boyfriend sleeps in girls room EVERY night. girl starts getting about 2 hours of sleep every night.
girl doesn't start homework until well after midnight.
girl's grades slip.
girl fails out of college
[okay, so those last two aren't true...yet]
all because girl would rather spend all her time with new boyfriend.


therefore, new relationship...one that, in all honesty, probably wont last because, well, it's college...is going to compromise girl's ability to get good grades, graduate with honors, get a good job and have a successful life.

am i over-exaggerating? maybe.

but i throw myself into everything i do. i'm going to be incredibly successful in whatever i do, because i won't let myself be anything less.

and i'm definitely not about to let some random guy get in the way of that.


example two:
girl has long-term boyfriend.
boyfriend is kind of a jerk.
girl is too afraid to leave him, so she stays with him.
this hinders girl from enjoying college, making new friends, having great experiences.
all because boyfriend is sufficating her life.
girl dumps boyfriend.
girl is MUCH happier, has a lot more fun, and has her life back.
coincidence? i think not.


example three:
girl has long-term boyfriend.
girl spend ALL her time with long-term boyfriend.
[long-term boyfriend has no personality]
girl stops talking to best girl-friend because of boyfriend.
girl and boyfriend break up.
girl goes running back to best friend.
girl gets new boyfriend.
girl abandons best friend.


i WILL NOT be that.
ive seen wwaayy too many 2-week relationships come in the way of lifetime friendships.
whats more important?


last example:
boy meets girl.
girl is slutty.
girl is pretty.
boy dates girl because of sluttiness and prettieness.
girl is without intelligence or personality.
boy gives up lifelong friendship because of insecurities of dumb, boring, but slutty and pretty new girlfriend.



i think i've proved my point.
case closed.


also, when did it become acceptable for roommate #1's boyfriend to move into their room without consulting with roommate #2? now, roommate #2 may not care that boyfriend is over a lot, but when boyfriend has his own toothbrush here? *rolls eyes*

relationships disgust me.
i'm too cynical for my own good.
