So, this morning I avoided going to school to retrieve my semester's marks. They'll send them to me anyway, so there's no real point in wasting my time.
And here I am, writing my blog. And do you know what I think? I think that I wonder why relationships are so important to people, and then still ache for one so much that it makes me want to move. The only thing is, that what I want is damn near impossible, because every time I get in to a relationship, I think that as much fun as I'm having, there's something that's just not quite right. I mean, I really don't think that I'm cut out for it, because in the end I'll just give up and destroy it anyway. It's not like I've had a bad influence; my parents are still together, my grandparents are too; my uncles and aunts all are, with the exception of one, but he's kind of like me, or vica versa, I think... Take a good thing, have it ruined; have another good thing and ruin it... You know the drill.
So, why do I do this for myself? I like to think it's because I'll settle for no less than perfection, and a single happy moment isn't good enough for me.
But, I can't help but thinking of all those romances, where people travel through time, adversity, even death to come back to their soul mate.
Don't laugh. Yes, I believe that there is one person who is meant for one other person, because I am a hopeless romantic on the inside. That said, I also hate a guy who's so mushy that it's not funny. But the little things, that aren't just based on fake stuff, and idealistic notions, but who really do care, those little things are the things I remember. Once, an ex knew I was really angry that I had to work and we couldn't see each other, and I felt really gross that day. So, at eleven thirty, he had his mom drive him all the way to my house to see me. For fifteen minutes, and that was all. But it was the thought, right, that he cared enough to come see me.
And, I think that a guy who does the little things and notices the little things, and doesn't stick to the really obvious "dinner and a movie" type relationship, is the best kind. Even if he doesn't do the big things, if the little things are noticed, I'm taken with him immediately. Then again, if it's a scam, I notice too, and that ends quickly. Sure enough, though, I believe it's a horrible downfall for having owned a small library of romance novels and falling in love with the idea of a perfect relationship.
How I wish I could be introduced to the past when everything was so much easier.
You were born, you were betrothed, and then you were married at fourteen. Dead by thirty and life was easy. Well, if you were rich and good looking.
I'm not saying my life is hard, I'm just saying that you didn't really have a choice so you never knew what you were missing. You couldn't really compare, because you never got the chance. If only it worked like that. Then again, I wouldn't be me, if it were any other way, and I'd probably get sick of being beaten for being impudent, which is my middle name.
Bwahahaha, I used a big word!

There's the lesson for the day.
Anyway, I just wonder why we have such horrible times in love. Not just me. In fact, this was spurred on by a friend who is debating his relationship with his girlfriend. It spurred me into thinking that maybe, just maybe, some people are happy with what they have because either a) they've found their perfection or b)they are too lazy to go out and look for it.
Perhaps everyone in the western civilization is a little bit jaded, because even our poor aren't all that poor, if they don't want to be. Maybe that's all I am, is jaded. But then, no. I want a guy who's good looking, and I want him to be that gorgeous, well-intending, educated man who's busy but always thinking of me.
Like this guy. He seems rather interested with his girlfriend, right? Dark, rugged, handsome, and... ripped. :D No more settling for slightly less than perfect for me. It's time I looked for that greek guy I fantasize about all the time. I can't have just made him up, right?
