I don't understand this whole concept of having a boyfriend/girlfriend, and why I should feel guilty for flirting with people who have these things. I mean, at this age what is really the point. In high school I thought they were good for practice. So that when you actually settle down with someone for real you already know how to be in a relationship. But now I think you can be in a relationship without it being set in stone. Without this start and end. Without all of the implied rules, and all of the obligations. I mean if I like someone shouldn't I be allowed to pursue them whether or not they have girlfriend/boyfriend? Well I have found out many times over that life doesn't work that way. When a person has a boyfriend/girlfriend he/she feels obligated to remain loyal to that person and to ignore all other options. And that doesn't make sense to me, because why should I be at a disadvantage to find someone just because someone else got to them first. And I know what you're thinking. Relationships aren't set in stone they can always break up. But then there's that whole guilt thing about hurting someone's feelings who you care about and stuff.
Ok maybe I'm oversimplifying relationships, and taking all the romanticism out of it. And maybe its possible for people to love their boyfriend/girlfriend so much they don't want to give up what they have. But really, how often is that really the case, and how often is that all in people's heads?
