I want to address what it means to date somebody nowadays. Because obviously there is a whole new spin on what it means to be in a “relationship” and what it means to just “talk”. Personally i think its all bullshit but im going to go ahead and break it down anyway and bare it in all of its ignorance.
Now these things called “relationships” used to exists. Ya know, the thing where its a man and a woman and even though they are not joined in matrimony they do delegate themselves to each other and ONLY each other. These were the days when you didn’t have to “define” what cheating was. You already knew. There was no technicality behind any of this. You kiss another woman, that’s cheating. You feel up another man, that’s cheating. You give out your PHONE NUMBER , that’s not cheating but its damn sure an attempt to so you can scratch that damn idea of the list to even TRY to do. See simple things like this were things you don’t have to be a rocket science to know. that this would not only piss your s/o off but it made you (whether you be male or female) look like a damn ho! That in turn causes fights and arguments and what not and gives your s/o power to say ,”Well what the hell he/she going say, they did it!”. So these things were off limits… notice i used were. As in past tense….
GONE are the days of monogamy. Although according to some of my twitter followers, it still exists.
Well, i didn’t get that memo.
Nowadays all people do is” TALK“. <—– Excuse my language but , WHAT THE FUCK DOES THAT EVEN MEAN!?
I talk to people every gotdamn day. I talk to people on the streets, people at school, my teachers, my SGA members, people on twitter, and any damn where else you can think of. So how in the hell did the word “TALKING” replace “RELATIONSHIP”
Well this is my theory on how all this bullshit works.
So “talking” technically gives you an excuse to run around with whoever the hell you want to but keep your s/o on hand. Kinda like a have your cake and eat it to deal. “Talking” allows you to say “we never said we were officially together” when you want to do something that’s going to piss he/she off and its something you know damn well that you shouldn’t be doing. Or maybe you don’t feel that way because your just “talking”. “Talking” allows you to still play the game but have somebody on your arm when you want to go somewhere that requires you to have somebody to show off. When you “talk” to somebody there are no real future plans you are just having fun and your “not really cheating” if you sleep around with other people.
THIS “TALKING” BULLSHIT IS DESTROYING RELATIONSHIPS EVERYWHERE!
It’s so prominent now because of all the shit i just named. Yea that’s not hot, at all.
True commitment suffers because its no longer a priorities anymore. Hell people talking bout “Oh i can’t never find a good one”, “Men ain’t shit”, “Where all the good women at?”
Do me a fuckn favor and stand back and look at yo damn self. You see anything wrong???? Maybe just maybe it ain’t everybody else. Maybe its yo dumbass following the “talking” clause instead of trying to apply the “relationship” clause.
I have been in a relationship 3 years strong bout to be 4 and one thing i can tell you is that it takes two to tango. If you are following the “talk” rules and the other person is following the “relationship” rules. Well then that’s a recipe for disaster.
The “talk” concept is killing us slowly people and we have GOT to do better.
What is your take on all of this and how do you feel about it?
Relationships in 2009 =
