Are you kidding?: March 2007 Archives
We have all been there. You have a great day with your significant other, and then you get a text message. You thought that steak dinner was delicious! You held hands in the movie. That good night kissed knocked you off your feet. What is that beep? A text, that says " I hate you". What is that about?
You ponder left and right. What could of gone wrong? So you call...NO RESPONSE! Then you get texts back. What is that about? How old are we again? And the cruel texts start. And then you sign online and you get nasty e-mails and instant messages. Yet everytime you call, no answer nothing but the sound of your beloved's voice mail.
Is technology hurting us? I was born in 1983 and the internet was not as prominent then as it is now. As a teenager aim was very new, and it was not used to hurt or insult. Just to make friends and keep in touch.
What is this new age argument? I am scared to learn what will be next. Divorce via myspace/instant/text message? I believe it's the matter of immediate response. It is not as if a text message travels faster then a phone call. In fact, it is bound to make the person more angry.
The end result here, the new methods of fighting is not a LOL matter. If you are not in the mood to talk things out, then wait until you are to fight. If you need to cool down, simply sign off and walk away.
An average relationship can become bumpy at anytime. Maybe your partner lost his/her romantic touch? Or you start to lose that passion when you kiss. Well what happens when a couple is in love and one states he/she is really gay or really straight? What are those odds? How often does this happen? When I was a teenager I had my first boyfriend. He was the love of my life and he is still my best friend. But at 23 I didn’t know that men meant nothing to me in that department. And the ones I felt that real connection with, wanted to do some department shopping of their own.
Can you roll that dice and choose your outcome? In some relationships, a man may Marry a woman and later find out he is attracted to men. This can apply both ways. Some Transgender people live a life of lies to have the family they always dreamed of. Who is to blame? I would first point fingers at society. Depending on the society you come from, gay, transgender, and bisexual is as foreign as dating someone of a different race. Children in these families are often told they will be disowned if they choose this path. Don’t even get me started on the choice issue, but would one really pick to walk down that path of discrimination? If the grass is greener on the so called “other side”, then why travel on that snowy path?
The end result, is it possible for ones sexuality to change? Is your preference determined before the game begins? Or are you given several rolls at that dice? Only you can decide this. The real answer, only believe what you personally feel. Your life is lived and only played by you.
