The Lonlely Girl Relationship

Lonely girls, we like to think, are those who have far too much time without a man or friends to occupy their time. They get annoying real quick cuz they tend to do nothing but feel sorry for themselves. But many girls are surrounded by loved ones and still play the lonely role. Many of these girls are in relationships, lonely ones. Don't get it? You will. 

Lonely girl relationships are usually the result of a reluctant man who enjoys the IDEA of having a girl on hand, but isn't all too thrilled with the concept of a relationship. He does just enough to keep her around but not enough to make himself feel guilty for leading her on. Is he an asshole? Probably, but she's also a dummy for putting up with it. Most guys who do this don't hide it very well, or at all in some cases. 

Lonely girls tend to be slightly if not completely delusional and oblivious to the reality of their relationship. They're the type to cry like children to their friends and ask why they deserve to be treated in such a way. Their friends normally have become accustomed to being the shoulders to cry on because this happens frequently. There's always some sort of problem, argument, issue that she calls them with. They've probably given her advice on advice on advice and home girl hits them with the "but you don't understand, I LOVE HIM," line EVERY TIME. So they've all taken vows of silence, refusing to tell her anything, knowing she won't listen. 

Lonely girls are usually the type to place their partner on a pedestal. They act like there is no life without this person. Now, I am all for love, being the hopeless romantic that I am.  But my inner realist knows that there is a serious dependence issue with being unable to function without another person. Lonely girls are bored to tears within an hour of being without their partner. That's when you peep the "All alone... So bored without HIM" tweets and status updates. Hey, lonely girls, FYI all us normal folks think that shit is hella pathetic. Get it together. 

This is not commentary on LOVE. This is commentary on delusion and dependence. Your world should not revolve around any one person who is not your child. As a female I feel the need to stress that no man should ever be what completes you but what compliments you. Furthermore, if the person you're with doesn't obsess the way you do, perhaps some reevaluation is in order.  When you make someone your everything, once they're gone you're left with nothing. 

Love is not obsession, it's passion. Obsession blinds people, passion guides them. Yeah yeah obsession is an expression of passion but that shit is for the crazies.
