James. 19. New York. Love listening to music and writing. Most people have a theme to their blog but I don't. It's just a collection of shit I like. Life is rough but I try to make the best of all the good things it has to offer.
Small minds are concerned with the extraordinary. Great minds are concerned with the ordinary.
Remember when girls had cooties? I kinda wanna go back to that time. All I cared about was watching Scooby Doo at 7:30 every night on Cartoon Network, playing with blocks, and collecting Yu-Gi-Oh cards. It was great! I was like in my own little world. Girls weren’t a factor in my life back then. They were just people that enjoyed playing with Barbies and asking me for pencils in class.
But eventually, like most men in this world, I had to go and start liking them. Ever since 5th grade I’ve been wanting to kiss girls and be with them and my wants have just increased throughout the years. So have my problems. There would be sometimes where I would just be talking to a girl and if she was acting bitchy or not answering, my whole world would stop. I’d be consumed by why this girl was acting weird towards me and it’d just screw up my whole life schedule. Why is this though? How can girls go from contaminated creatures when we’re young to something so incredibly desirable that they cause us to say and do things we normally wouldn’t when we’re older? It’s weird.
But what I’m really wondering about is why is it in human nature for us to perpetually desire constant company from another individual, preferably the opposite sex? Why do we always feel like we have to be in a relationship or engage in some kind of physical relationship with someone else? We have this notion that it’ll make us automatically happier if we’re in a relationship with someone. Nobody takes the time to think if they’re getting into the right relationship with the right guy or girl, they just want a boyfriend or girlfriend in general. In this generation, we are largely consumed by lust. I’m not saying that’s a bad thing but it is bad if you’re looking for a real, lasting relationship with someone. Through experience and watching other people I’ve come to believe that the best relationships are the ones that come unexpectedly. The girl you always talk to about other girl problems and your other life stories or the boy you spill your heart out to on lonely nights could very well turn out to be your husband or wife. The initial attraction and flirting between a guy and a girl is like fireworks on the 4th of July. They’re bright and fun and beautiful—but only for a short amount of time. Physical attraction is only one component to the complex thing we call “relationships”. Friendship comes first.
