You Think Who's a Loser?

Not so sure where I'm going with that title, but I'm feeling it so it's gonna stay like that.

A friend of mine recently sent me this great article she read on CNN and I'm pretty sure (I would say 83% sure) that she wanted me to disagree with the article, but I am going to have to not.

Take a peek. According to this article, women typically will consider a man/guy she is dating/sleeping with/having relations with...whatever... a loser if he does not live up to her 'standards.' Her idea of the 'perfect man' or the 'really really good listener.' As this guy plainly put it, the truth of the matter is that these types of girls are losers as well.

Here's the way I see it. If a guy and a girl are not into each other or go on a couple of dates and one or both of them realize that it's not going to work out or they're just not interested..that's just okay. End of story. There really is no reason for all of the hate or whatever goes on when people date and can't be friends. I mean that's not to say that it might take a little while -- but the name calling and saying horrible things when you run into their friends? Come on now...who's the loser now with that BS? That's just silly.

But to bring it back to the article, it really is hysterical that girls...or even guys because we can't just make this one sided even though it is clearly more often than not that girls are the ones with these types of issues...believe that there is someone out there that will fulfill all of their fantasies when it comes to being the perfect mate. And who wants that anyway? I find that I get along with a ton of people who I don't really have a lot in common with. I think that's what makes it interesting....or keeps it interesting...whichever way you want to look at it.

So the moral of this story? Lighten up. Everyone is a loser in his/her own rite...and I'm just gonna go ahead and say this: That's what makes them awesome.

Stay classy.
