Chrissy
I've become tired of watching my friends float along with fake smiles on their faces, obviously tired from arguing over pointless things with the so-called "love of their life," yet hanging on because they're afraid to be alone. I've become sickened by constantly reading people's profiles with little lyrics and poems about how much they loooove each other [if you loooove each other so much, why not spend some time together instead of making your subprofile pretty colors with little hearts all around it, proclaiming your sappy love to the entire internet?]. I've become tired of watching girls get used, and then dumped, just to wonder "What did I do wrong, where have all my friends gone, and why are there rumors that I am a slut going around?" Basically, I've grown tired of all the fakeness that "love" is about. Not that I don't believe in love, or don't think that there are people who truly have it--it's just that so many people over-use that term today and express "love" so quick
ly that it just makes me feel like Medusa incarnate whenever I see these things going on because they're just giving up their life to become so incredibly wrapped up in a fantasy land that they want only because everyone else has it, and it's so difficult to find. I want to see more girls standing up for themselves, not just going out with the-boy-of-the-week because he died his hair black or he's wearing Structure jeans. I want to see girls giving up a relationship, even if -- horror of horrors -- it means being alone with themselves for a little while, if there are major problems that aren't working out. I want to see girls stop being sappy, whiney little flowers and being real people. I know I'm asking a lot, but I figured I might find a few un-flowery femmes here.
Yes! I want to read more from Real Life Heartless Bitches
