Its quite funny, that ALL of us "ENGS" are experiencing what we call a "losing streak" and we're not talking about sports type losing streak.
Although its funny, thoughts of something not really related came rushing through my HUGE spaced FOREHEAD.
Actually, its more of a friends idea growing in this spacious area...
In this generation, its so funny how things are looked at in an extreme way. Something small and not really important, happen and everybody thinks its something worth gossiping about and making a fuss about. Its really something how things turn out this way.
And how people have changed the ways of which they get to know a person better.
FYI : I HAVE NO PROBLEM REGARDING THE TOPIC. ITS JUST SOMETHING I THOUGHT OF, PEACE TO THOSE THAT GET OFFENDED. I AM NOT ATTACKING ANYBODY EITHER :D
Lets say, dating. In olden times, well not too old i guess, dating is a way of knowing somebody, yes it doesnt mean anything. its just that its a way to be with someone your interested and see if he/she is worth while. If sparks fly and fireworks explode then good for you. good for you that you get to meet the person your attracted to and see or have an idea that hey, this might work out. if not sorry just tell them "its not you, its me" and Bullshit your way out of hurting the person so that they'd feel less rejected, after a day or two im betting their back to their "i'm so pretty/ i'm so handsome" phase that they could care less about what happened.
Dating isn't really a big thing, but then here comes modern times and say that "HEY! when you date, it means your committed!" or something like that, over the years things have gotten to exaggerated to EXTREME. Think about it, how else would you know someone without meeting them? how do you know more about them? Well there is TEXT and EMAIL, but then ever think about how plastic texting can be? Yeah it starts with a little every other day texting "hey zup?" and all that cute intro to things. Then they reply and say blah blah blah! But do you really think they are being truthful? i mean yeah they tell you stuff, but wouldn't you say they can hide so much in texts? but then again, we can't really know people 100% now can we. So i guess, texting is a way of knowing people, but then how far can texting let you in on the "juicy" bits? You try and try and try and try but you sorry ass won't get much if they refuse to reply. now you try another strategy that you use a friend's cellphone to know whether the persons avoiding you, but you get to look like such a desperate loser that when you have already done that, you lose another reliable person to borrow a dumb cellphone. Lucky you. but thats not all, you also don't get what you planned to know, that is, if the person is avoiding you, too bad you look DUMBER than ever!
Now there is another way, its what people call, internet/chat and all that. But then you get stuck not knowing the ID of the person you want to know. TOO BAD. but since you really want to know, you do the dirtiest tricks in the big black book. "the art of stalking" it then forces you to go to the dark side and fish as much info as you can to know the person's ID and know them for yourself. You hide and hide from the person since like i said in the older entry, that its impossible to meet the person unless of course your such a party person, then hey good for you! But for the lonely homeboys, nerds, dorks, and the plain old i don't like partying type, they tend to be swayed into the dark side. for the mean time lets be optimistic and say, hey, you do get an "A+" in stalking and get to know the ID or name of the person. You then push your lonely "i want to meet the person" ass to the computer and start freaking the person out. Since hey now that you know the name, you have most likely add him/her already, or even more stupid, looked at their profile without even signing-out. NOW YOU'VE REALLY DONE IT! NOW YOU'VE LOST THE CHANCE. SMART VERY SMART. But lets say you are lucky, how then will you know that the person won't be doing what people might do if they text?
But then again, you cant just ask a person out after being introduced to the person. the thought of "HEY! THEY'RE COMMITTED" runs through everybody's mind. so you try a different approach just meet with the person daily, yeah this might work, if you dont think its freaky! come on the other person's got a life too, you'd soon be thrown out for being so stubborn and trying hard to meet their expectations and watch the person you want to meet, step on you little sorry ass. NOW YOU HAVE NO FACE TO SHOW EVERYONE. not only that rumors now start circling of your DESPERATE ACTS of STUPIDITY THAT NOW YOU LITERALLY HAVE NO FACE AND HAVE TO TRANSFER YOUR ASS ELSE WHERE.
so now then? what do we do? we can't really rely on texting, internet or even dating.
maybe its better if we just go with the flow. and not try anything. someway, somehow, we will know their real colors. or maybe not.
Nothing is final, maybe in the next years dating wouldn't be a sign of commitment. maybe there will be other things that would help us know the person.
Maybe next time when a guy and a girl would go out there won't be anything ASSUMED.
P.S. i did not do anything. these are all thoughts :P Peace
