Relationships...A Mistake Made At The Door Of Them...

(In 50 Cent Voice) Ok Okay Okaayyyyy...In the beginning of relations/getting to know someone that you like its easy to get lost in translation. Again, with lack of a flashlight, a match, a cell phone, anything with a slight example of illumation. Shit, at that point im sure most people wished they attended Hogwarts. I'd pull out a BIC Pen and say Lumos! But NO! That's not the case here, its real life.
You can get real deep with your bare hands, fuck coppin' a shovel. For What? You've gotten this far with him/her. You feel like things are going right. You know what you want. You want a girl, or a man to call your own, a relationship. Just to feel attatched to someone. This person, feels right. He/she is talking, saying the right things, doing the right actions. You're feeling them and they're feeling you. You can't go wrong.

The Error Lies...

In the fact that you've only known this person for a week at most. You've seen him/her around a couple times, and now, finally, you guys are together. Tongue in tongue, in a totally conversational way, but it's just a little bit tooooooo soon. Fools rush in. Fools rush in. Fools rush in. The whole situation is fools gold. If you put this situation underwater, it would look just like the Silver Surfer. He likes you, but not that much. She likes you, but, not that much. Kiddo, you've kidded yourself. Your parents might as well have named you Jason, whether boy or girl. Once the wrong thing is said by the person you're talking to, all interest is lost, or they lose interest in you once you've said the wrong thing. All the smiles are gone, the balloons are deflated. That big Times Square-like "You're A Winner" sign seems to have been blown up by The Joker. He laughs, but aint SHIT funny!
I mean you felt really good about this, just to have it all removed so abrubtly. Then you droop down to that point where you're whispering under your breath, "Damn. What happened?"
It just wasn't meant to be. It was a lesson thrown to you. Don't rush in to things. Take your time. It's like a perfect basketball jumpshot. The ball needs rotation. In the beginnin, aim to get to know how someone is instead of aiming to get them. They aint goin nowhere.
It was nice talking to you, but we will talk again. It's no rush. You can be a fool when you're in love. But it's awful to be a fool when your in like. There is a trap door ahead of your path to take that step.
Learning when and how to call a good first time quits is a must. If the end is prolonged, then that first date or conversation may end worse, much worse than expected. Life is no fairytale. Most glass slippers only exist in strip clubs.
(In Denzel Washington Voice) You don't want that. I Don't want that.

Love Is Serious, How Much Do You Want It?

Why do so many young women feel the need to be in love? High school and undergraduates are just, searching high and low for that someone to call their own and put a ring on it. Hey! Not everyone is Beyonce! from 15 to 24, the average male or female are still exploring themselves and getting to know themselves better. If you take a quick search on social networking sites, you'll see more than enough young women "In Love" with their "hubby," or saying "I Love Him," or so-and-so loves so-and-so, and stating the month, day, and year their relationship started. Ok, comme on now. Does everyone have to be looking for love? I'm not saying that its fine to be all willy nilly and wild, but something serious as love should stay as something serious. Young people are beginning to mistake love for infatuation, strong attraction and lust. Notice the differences, I say. It's easier to hold off from fueling Kleenex's rankings through the discharged tears from abrubtly ended relationships. Most likely caused from guys breaking up with the girl, the girl catching the guy cheating, the guy telling the girl off, the girl being used for sex when she "thought" she was in a committed relationship. It's easier to wake up and smell the Folgers and say, hey, does he (or she) really love me?
How has he (or she) proven this to be a fact?
How have I proven that I really do love him, (or her)?
I'm sure these questions run through the mind of someone involved in a relationship, but they may never come to fruition because one may be scared or timid to address it. At a young age, it's easier to say what someone doesn't want, rather than what they really do want in a relationship. What they may want to gain, learn, achieve by being in a relationship and really being able to notice whether or not they are in love.
It's cool to give the relationship thing a try, but it's not cool to try, and try, and try having sooooo many different relationships, looking for someone to put a ring on, at 18, and with no success. Now just isn't the time. Have fun, enjoy yourself. Date! Crushes will come and go like the wind. Some people might as well be inside of compactors because of how they treat their significant others.
Again, a good time is what life should be about at this age. Love can wait. Don't look for it.
