Steer Clear Of Something?
January 23, 2008My friend is newly proclaimed single. She was broken up with by her less than a year boyfriend. Nothing quirky about it actually, it was just another men’s-way-of-breaking-up story. It ended just the same way most men end their relationships, wherein certain lines—such as “it’s not you, it’s me,” and “I hope you’ll someday find that person who’s truly worthy of your love,”—were abused. Not to mention, the relationship ended through languid exchange of text messages. Men, men, men.
They are pretty comfortable with text and with those lines, aren’t they? Umm, is it because most men really do think of the same ways and same lines when trying to break up with somebody, or is it just most of them plainly have the same size of small balls?
For my newly-proclaimed-single friend’s ex-boyfriend, for my ex-boyfriends, for my best friend, and for other men who do similar ways mentioned above: for your information, us, women, are such fans of mushy, lame, chich-flick movies. Yes we extremely are, but that doesn’t mean we buy those rotten lines! I mean, come on! Do better than than, be more rational than that! Just please don’t give us that crap.

It’s not that we think you buy them, per se. I believe all men are stupid, but I doubt that any of us are that stupid. I hope.
Usually, it’s because the guy is just too lazy to come up with anything that hasn’t been said before, too stupid to come up with anything more personal, or just too damn eager to get rid of the relationship (not necessarily the girl, mind you) to spend too much time thinking about it. Normally, it’s the “too stupid” one that comes into play.
Of course, there’s always the “I’m tired of her/I’ve found someone else” situation, combined with the “I can’t tell her/The truth would just complicate things emotionally and being a man, I like my emotions simple” mentality.
In short, yes, men are both stupid and emotionally deficient.
