Love Sucks…
I keep hearing and reading the same two words: Love sucks. What happened to love? It seems that we just can’t work it out. A man and a woman just can’t manage to be together anymore. I have been trying to figure out what could be the reasons for the failure of our relationships, and I came up with the following few:
1. We don’t need each other to “survive”. Back in the days, way before Myspace and Facebook and Twitter and, and, and, people needed each other to survive and/or to improve their status. Today, it seems that the other person is more a burden than an addition.
2. Selection, selection and selection. We have too many choices. If one guy/girl doesn’t do it, another guy/girl might. We don’t stick around to find out what the other person is really about. We just keep it moving to the next.
3. Internet and Transportation. You don’t know anyone who lives on your block, but you do know a couple of guys who live across the country. Not only that you know them, you have met them, dated them, and now you are not feeling them. Transportation and Internet made it possible for us to “beam” ourselves anywhere we may think the perfect guy lives.
4. Sex is worthless. Going to dinner has more value than having sex. Back in the good old days when a girl said no, the guy patiently waited for his lucky moment. The lucky moment was the wedding night. Today sex comes before titles, deep conversations and romantic moments.
5. Independent women. Our independency took unexpected turn. Every guy wants an independent woman; hardly any guy knows how to handle one. It doesn’t matter how independent we are, we still need affection and attention.
