Just Don't Know Why

Hating that species... and some of my own...

'That' species? I'm refering to the male sex. Those creatures who offer... well, at the moment, nothing particularly of worth and yet manage to make up 50% of the population, as well as having the upper hand throughout much of society. What i don't understand is how that can be so completely hopeless and inconsiderate all of the time - obviously people don't like it. You'd think that they'd learn to NOT KEEP DOING IT. But apparently not. However, it is not only males that are acting like morons of late. Either there is something very wrong with the females of late or the male attitudes are wearing off onto them. Whatever has caused it, some girls are being more nasty than usual...

Now, i can warn you right now, this blog has little purpose except to allow me to vent about the current stupidity displayed by the males and females in my aquaintence. If you do not wish to hear that, either go do something else or zip your lip and stop complaining. This is MY blog - only I can do that.

1) Firstly, there are those stupid guys who, as a few years my senior, have decided that my friends, myself and anyone my age is immature and silly. Obviously, there are a few exceptions, but i'm talking on the whole. Scientifically, it has been proven that females mature approximately two years faster than males. Therefore, if you're two years older than me, you're really no more mature. But just logically, you're also being ridiculous. The thing that you don't understand is that someone can laugh, jump around and be silly all they want, so long as they can be sensible when they need to be and can be counted on to handle a situation properly. So, just because i'll have fun, it doesn't mean i'm immature. And, when you compare me to someone else who perhaps doesn't laugh as often as me, chosing rather to sit in a stony, often sullen, yet poised silence, there is no reason to assume she is more mature. Yea, she can sit quietly. So? Her social skills might be appalling, when faced with an adult situation she may be compltely useless. Also, as another example of men being incredibly unreasonable, should a girl approach him to discuss something important, she isn't being immature. Simply because the guy didn't wish to discuss it, doesn't mean that the girl is being immature in doing so. If anything, that would be the other way round. My point? Don't classify me as immature just because i laugh lots, embarass myself easily, lack some social skills and am willing to have fun and be myself with people i'm comfortable with - even if i don't come off looking 'cool'. Don't judge me until you know me.

2) A female issue - one of the girls has decided that it would be fun to pretend to be an inanimate object; namely, a wall in a friendship. Whether this is some crazy acting technique or an insane experiment looking at whether a friendship can truly be called thus with only one person involved in it, i don't know. But i do know that i don't like it and that i can only take so much more of it. Yes, i can be a pain in the ass - but, more often than not, i am aware of what i'm doing. And, if it's more hurtful than annoying, i'll apologise and go out of my way to make it better (most of the time). So i'm allowed to whinge about this. This girlie likes to sit with me and talk about all of the aspect of my life that plague me and bring me nothing but misery - however, as i have discovered, this is not to help me unload and fix things, as was what i originally believed. Rather, it appears that she does this to feel better about her life. Add to this a constant belittling (Eg. the constant calling me a moron or saying that i'm weird after i maker perfectly legitimate comments - yes, i know that i can say strange things, but these thing aren't them!) and the fact that she doesn't talk to me, is a bit of a bitch 24/7 despite efforts made on my part, refuses to give anything of herself the the friendship, likes to make me look bad infront of other people which boosts her up and has no regard for my feelings, and you have a me-who-is-getting-sick-of-things. Take for example, the fact that i am incredibly shy, even though people never believe that i am. When i prefer to have the company of others, which takes the edge off my nerves, i am greeted with comments like 'i don't mind spending all of my time alone', 'if you weren't going, i'd go anyway, i don't need other people' or 'i'm not like you, i don't need other people around', etc. Wow! What a way to make me feel loved - let's just make me feel like a complete and utter waste of space, shall we? Then there's the inability to understand that i need to know details - so, when she has conversations with other people about me, i'd like to know about them! No just get an 'oh, yea, i talked with *insert name* about you and they said some stuff' - but then not getting told what the stuff is!!!!!! The excuse? They didn't want me to tell and i value their friendship. My reply? What about my friendship? Then was the icing on the cake - 'your friendships are 50/50'. Yes, that's right, 50/50. Me, the friend who listens to all the crap going on in her life and offers helpful advice or at least a caring ear, who plays chauffer whenever needed, who goes out of her way to make her feel comfy with my mates, who would put her friendship about most things, is given a 50/50 status with someone she's known a few months and hardly ever talks to. Great that she's comfy with them, but seriously. What am i? Chopped liver? I've really had enough...

3) Returning to the retardation of guys, there are just a few other things wrong with them that i feel like sharing. For instance, the fact that they think with the brain that they keep in their pants 24/7 and wander around, drooling over every female in the immediate area -- ignoring the girl standing next to them, of course. What? She's not pretty enough? Who cares if she's got a nice personality, the main thing is that she's hot, right guys? Uh... try again. Then there's their sense of humour which is often not actually funny - if you say it deadpan and then give no indication that you've actually been joking, then it's hard to tell that you are. Ok? So the 'funny' insults or little jokes that you think you're making? Not so funny to the person on the receiving end - who, at the moment, is getting too many of these 'jokes' from everyone and has almost reached her limits. Moving on to those terrible clingy guys, who send you seven or eights texts per day, with no real point, yet who gets all 'wounded-puppy' if you don't reply. These guys are hopeless. They don't like you, you're just friends, yet he wants you to waste precious credit on him, just to tell him the same thing three or four times and write one word answers. THINK BOY. How stupid. On the other end of the scale is the dude who is too distant. He'll give you nothing to work with to build a friendship and the only time you get anything other than a complaint or a one-word answer is when they have a problem that they'd like you to fix. Nice? Fair? I don't think so! I'm sick of these ridiculous one-way 'friendships'!! Really. It's beyond a joke. And what about those guys who apparently like you but don't do anything much about it? Flirting is all well and good - for the first million years. Then, for goodness' sake, act like the man you like to strut about like and MAKE THE FIRST MOVE. Geez. It's not that hard. We can't do it because then we're either slutty, desparate or strange - so NOTHING will happen unless you make it.

Yes, i am in a mood. Yes, i am ranting slightly. Yes, i may regret this later because people will crack shits/get all 'avoid-y' at me. But guess what? I don't really care. Yes, this was an emotional explosion. But this is still the way i'm thinking and it's better that it's out there than not. Because people can't just leave me feeling like shit and blame it on my being too sensitive or my being stupid. If that's how i feel, then that's how i feel. I'm not being too sensitive, i'm being me and you just have to deal with that. I'm not going to change just so that other people can walk all over me and not feel bad about doing it.

Bye
