I went back and read some of my old posts tonight, the ones from a couple weeks ago where I was really down on myself. Particularly this one.
It’s awkward to put it out there like that. I can remember writing it, thinking about how real and serious it was in my head, how emotional I was, how I didn’t want to share it with anyone (I still don’t), how I didn’t even want to go to Dave because he wouldn’t know how to fix it anyway, so why bother him? and now I’m kind of numb about it.
Girls are a mess, especially from a guy’s perspective. I read a book called The Female Brain.. amazing. It explains so much in how we’re different from men. How each day, we differ in how we feel, and it’s all based on hormones. I’d like to think that I’m rational enough for the most part to control my emotions and my feelings, but sometimes it seems to boil over the edge.. and it doesn’t stop. Other times, I’ll think, good god, how embarrassing. Get it together, dude! And then nights like tonight, it’s more like, yeah…yikes. Sorry guys. Oh well.
Our hormones really do control everything, and although lots of girls will use it as an excuse to get away with whatever (I’m totally against that, btw) it’s true that guys will never really relate to how girls feel, or how girls deal with their emotions and feelings. At least, no guy I’ve ever met has truly understood. They may act like they understand, but they really have no clue. The smart (wise) ones just know that hugs fix most things, and the stubborn ones refuse to ‘give in’ to giving hugs, because then the emotional girl will just expect more hugs, and so on.
WELL I FUCKING LIKE HUGS DAMN IT. If you (you being whoever is reading this!) ever see me looking upset, or sad, or down, or cheerful, or excited, or pissed, or happy, or ANYTHING. Just hug me. I will love you for it, and it will make my day, and in return, you’ll get the BEST HUG YOU’VE EVER GOTTEN. At least, you’ll get the best hug I can give. Hugs are awesome.
But don’t give me a fake hug. I think a fake hug is worse than no hug at all. Don’t pretend like you’re up for a hug and just do that fake, one arm around, no squeezy hug. Those are awful. Bleh, seriously, why bother?
Anyway.. WHOA.. where did that come from? A lesson on girly hormones and hugs. Two very important things for guys to know. If you don’t know what to say, or how to react.. JUST HUG HER. I promise, it’s a good move. 🙂
OH. and check out how cute I am! Seriously cute. This is from Vegas. The same day my BFFFFF Josh and I went to Hoover Dam.
