I agree with "go for the nice", but there are plenty of "easy" unpleasant disaster-men out there. |

You're absolutely right. But I don't mean the men, I mean the relationship as a whole. And it's the whole package. Really, I should have included "simple." Not as in "simple" man, but the relationship. It's the triple threat that'll do you in. Easy, simple, nice.
I've been with tons of nice guys, like really, truly nice guys, but that doesn't mean the relationship itself was nice, easy, simple.
To me it seems that relationships often fall into patterns, especially at the beginning.
A) High drama on both sides. Lots of game playing. In my experience, Girl calls Girl's Friends wayyyyy too often to ask for advice. "What do you think he means when he says... Should I call him? What should I wear?" Often there is some ex-drama on one or both ends of the relationship.
Some people really like high drama. This is not simple or easy, but enough people like high drama around them to think it's nice.
B) Things are either easy or drama from the beginning, but they settle quickly. Yet one person (in my experience, Girl, but that's probably because most of my friends talking about relationships with me are female) STILL asks for other people's opinions waaaaaay too much. And she often repeats wayyyyy too much blow by blow information about the relationship to check what her friends think or to brag. "Isn't he so romantic.... awwww...."
This is not simple, but enough people like to create drama around them to think it's fun.
C) Your relationship is suddenly between you and your lover, not you, your lover, and your closest girlfriends. You quit needing to ask other people's advice, you quit needing your friends' approval or opinions. You feel comfortable without drama. Neither of you are playing games.
I'm not saying Cs don't still discuss their relationship with others, but it's just...different.
It's late, I'm exhausted, this probably won't make sense in the morning.
Ahhh, oh well. |

princess, I am going to be watching the Canucks game Saturday 11am for breakfast at The Rockey Mountain Tavern. Would you like to go-I can tell you something that is 100% true-I'm not a mama's boy who will use family as an excuse to toss you to the curb.
I hope to see you there!

princess, when a guy asks you to watch hockey and have breakfast at the RMT, you can believe him to be 100% true.
princess, good news-the Vancouver Canucks beat Edmonton 5-3 today.
That is also 100% true.
princess, I won't be effeminate and do what my mom tells me, I won't wear pink Tshirts, but if it will help I will sayuh uh on the ends of everyuh third worduh to be more Korean for you. |
