Today, everyone, we are going to talk about our problems. Every person here has an addiction that they just need to admit to. And of course, I am talking about relationships.
Some may think that the paragraph intro is uncalled for but I think the comparison of relationships to hard core drugs is a very accurate grouping. They are both addictive, but one we just keep going back to no matter how bad the trip was.
It’s always out there, lurking in the darkness, waiting to beat you over the head so hard that you develop amnesia and kidnap you, only to implant false memories and make you feel like you need the companionship. So basically, relationships are crazy obsessed stalkers.
People grow up believing that one day, when life is swell and dandy, they will involve themselves in a relationship and live happily ever after, the end. Well, once again people.
Here is the reality. Reality is the T-Rex in Jurassic Park. Just when your plans work out, and that special someone joins you in your life and things turn for the worse, she happily shows you just how incredibly wrong you are by tearing you apart. These are the kind of things that keep reality alive and kicking and most of us can attest to thism
If you don’t understand that, how about this one. You travel the world in your perfect life. Nothing is wrong, you get off of the train to see the beautiful sunset over the lightly colored leaves of the trees, when, suddenly, reality hit you in the form of a gentle breeze and you fall into a deep dark pit with raptors in it.(This was actually a dream I had. Nowhere in the dream did it give any hint that something would go wrong that quickly. In retrospect, what the hell was a fucking pit full of raptors doing at a train station? And why was I the only one in it? I mean it’s not like there was a sign saying “Beware of the raptor pit!”) Regardless, relationships can get you into this kind of thing. It happens. Kind of like how shit happens.
So, I will begin with relationships in younger children. Generally, this consists of a kiss on the cheek. They think they know relationships, but they are blind people at an art auction. They don’t have the capacity or capability to understand it. I will admit, however, that very adult topics, such as sex, are being learned at far younger ages now. I recall a rumor in my second or third grade year about a couple of kids having sex. Back then, I was astonished. Now, I laugh. The imaginations we had back then, very twisted imaginations.
Now comes the middle school years, during these years, a lot of emotions start coming through, but not all of them are good. These relationships hardly ever last, making out and fooling around happens but not Sex at this point, it’s about this time that those outside the relationship circle become carved out of steel from countless assaults on our way of thinking.
Then we have, my favorite, high school relationships. Relationships in high school are foolish, to say the least. I was in a relationship in high school, so naturally I didn't know what I was getting my self into.But on the bright side, I got to see reality hit people left and right like a train. A very heavy and fast train,It’s funny actually. They all took it so seriously though. And they let emotions mix.
Involving your emotions is a hit or miss with relationships. Win or lose. Sometimes your emotions get treated like a little lost and stranded puppy with the big eyes. Other times, you put in your emotions, stick your head up and become an unwilling participant in emotional shenigan.
Emotions can get very mixed up when you carelessly toss them into the mystery pit without checking for fire or raptors first. You can have the best intent and emotions, but it all amounts to shit sometimes. Take it from an experienced person. I got the shit end of the deal.
Relationship is another one of the overused words, like love or dreams. For the most part they become pointless. One or the other dragging each other into pits they make for themselves. And believe me; they can dig some god damn deep pits. It really sucks sometimes. But people learn.
Everyone spends their time looking for the perfect relationship (I’m no exception), it’s just not out there. Truth is what we see as a perfect is, actually, a mirage. You get there and all you find is a T-Rex. Mirage too… But not really. Its reality ready to tear your hopes and dreams (amongst other things) apart. And she will do it happily.
But the worst is when the other in the relationship points and laughs at the fact that reality is tearing you limb from limb. Sometimes this will be the case. There are people out there who have to latch on to another to feel better about themselves, and then when they do, they leave you behind… It happens. I like to refer to these people as ticks. A blight upon the human race, in my opinion. They suck the happiness out of your life with their drama and false hopes and feelings. Then, once reality arrives, the make it your fault. Be careful of these people.They will deliberately trip you so that they can get away.
And then, of course, there are relationships based on sex. These are understandable and ok. But seriously people, does everything have to be about sex? For some people, it does. They don’t feel good about themselves unless they are getting some. It becomes an addiction to which any and all can become a victim, no matter how personal the relationship. I used to know a few people like that.
Relationships are a roller coaster, like love. Same ride, same end.Your best bet is to avoid them, no matter how tempting the bikini clad model licking her lips is. You’ll get in trouble for that, so try to work around it, as hard as it is to. If it seems too good to be true, chances are, it is. These are the real life equivalent of junk e-mail. Seriously, would you open an email that with the title of “Have a perfect life with this woman today!” or “He’s your dream man!” .Occasionally, a real one will sneak in there, but most are just looking for security. So don’t give out your credit information and don’t fall too far in… Or shit will hit the fan.
And not the conventional Oops, I stuck my hand in the fan fan. I’m talking about a reduced to mush fan. A no more teeth for dental records fan. A… well, you get the picture. You don’t want to go near the fan. Or perhaps a better too good to be true example is being handed an apple. You’re skeptical about it, but you eat it anyway. Then you start to wonder why it was golden and shiny. No, it wasn’t poisoned, so to speak. But that gut feeling of “Hmm, something tells me I shouldn’t eat this,” was just a little too late. Now you’re naked and tossed out into the real world. And guess who’s waiting there? Our good friend reality. And he’s hungry.
In short, if you don’t like the feeling of being poked repeatedly with any variety of things (not perversely, ladies and gents) than you should keep clear of skeptical relationships. Hell, ask your friends for advice there. One of them should be able to help you.
The way the relationships end can be sudden and painful as well. The ball on your ankle is finally unlatched and you can move free,some peoples only goal is to make the other feel as bad as possible and then leave them. The insult to injury method. Salt in the wound. Finally leaving your cage, breathing the fresh air, feeling the cool rain upon you, only to realize after your partner has thrown the match that the rain was actually kerosene. Funny how that works.
