actual conversation i found:

.
.
.

girl: all I want is for people to care about me.

boy: I care about you. A lot.

girl: no, that's different.

boy: What, I'm not a person?

girl: haha, no, you are. what I mean is, I wish there was some nice cute boy thought about me all the time.

boy: So what you meant was that you wish beautiful people cared about you.

girl: no no no, I'm saying that I wish I could finally have a decent and somewhat attractive boy care about how my day was and stuff.

boy: So the problem isn't that not enough people care about you, it's that not enough people you want to have sex with care about you.

girl: haha sure.


^^^^ pulled from here.

what shocks me is how cats could capture that so exactly & so perfectly & hit the nail right on the head like that. i mean it blew me away 2 read that cuz if i had a flamin' dime 4 every girl i knew of that thought that way, i'd be a millionaire b4 lunchtime. & it's things like this that make me take issue w/ 'em; they're the reason i have such a hard time loving & accepting the female gender in general -- b/c they think like this. & all my old nature w/in me wants 2 do is yell "serves u right 4 being lonely then, u pompous little..." -- y'know?

& that's not an isolated incident, nor is it the fullscope of the female problem either. it's just one of many; a tiny speck in a universe of biases, inconsistencies & irrational or just str8 up wrong behaviours inlcuding the niceguysfinishlast syndrome & the "karmadoesntapply2me" aka the "we dont understand the concept of fairness" syndrome. the list is endless.

sumtimes i really have doubts abt men being form mars & women being from venus. the magnitude of the problem belies that fact; this is bigger than diff planets. this is diff flamin' universes, i tell u.

all i keep hearing is how "men aint isht", day in day out while this problematic part of the equation is left languishing in non-attention. i take it personal 'cuz i lived w/ it all my life. 's funny, 'cuz i was never wanting 4 female attention -- i was the cat who sent his friends out while they girls came in & he closed the door. but yet i was acutely aware of what my lesser fortunate male counterparts was having 2 deal w/; & i paid attention when femme fatal friends came my way looking 4 a listening ear abt their problems, a la the exchange u c above there. but whateva, i'm not wastin' no more time on it...

just know it's a thorn in my side & 4 now i'm done talkin'. issue's 2 ugly 2 dwell upon.

"Started with romantic, then got to frantic
Then things thats normally small become gigantic
Now y'all sinkin like the Titanic here come the panic
Bein with you like a habit without you I can't stand it
It's tragic when you wonder when you lost that magic
Without understanding that you never had it..."
