MY PHILOSOPHY: on relationships. Are you an A or B type?
�The problem is that A people THINK they know what they want, but that isn't really what they want. What they think they want is really what they know they SHOULD want, but can't figure out why they don't like it when they really got it.
...Then there are the B people who really do know and accept what they want, but really shouldn't want it. So they want it when they have it, even though they know they shouldn't.
...And, that leaves us with the C people. These people are few and far between. They are comfortable with themselves, and are satisfied with comfortable. They are able to appreciate the good things, and the good people, and understand some imperfections. These are the ones that are in the relationships that are long lasting, non-conflicting, and friendly. They are friends.
All the others, although they would say they like comfort, and want comfort, don�t want it when they have it. They seem to seek drama or conflict.
You know these people. The A�s are the people that want a nice respectable person, who is nice, cute, and funny. Nothing to be ashamed of. But they just don�t like him/or her. They ask themselves, �What is wrong with me?� �Why don�t I like him/her?� �He/She is perfect!� The A person usually asks their friends these questions also, and you all sit around and mull over the answer.
Then there are the kind they make movies about. You know, the ones where the woman is battered, but keeps wanting to change him, remembering the sweet things he seems to RARELY do. Everyone sees what a creep he is, and so does the B person, but they just can�t bring themselves to leave.
Or the B person who has the mate that cheats, or lies, or is physically or mentally abusive, but is so attentive and deceitful (good actor and liar) when they are together. The B person ends up forgetting, or forgiving the crap they were put through, and spend a large part of their life thinking about leaving 6 days a week, and thinking about how things might be looking up, 1 day a week. Maybe this couple should just be called the 1/6 couple. One is great 1/6 of the time, and one is happy with a mate that is great only... 1/6 of the time.
And what can I write about those C people? They are our role models...if we could just get them to share their secrets! |
