Sorry, no funny little anecdote this time out people. I have a question that has been bothering me since (that I remember) sixth grade. It's, unfortunately, a question about the sexes; but this isn't a guy asking a question about a girls question. It's a guy wondering about human attraction in general. The question is:
Why are people in a relationship always going on and on about how hot others, beside their significant other, are?
This baffles the motherfucking hell out of me. I mean, people openly are saying, if he/she would have me I would definitely be with him/her instead of you. Okay, maybe I don't date that much (or all) but I'm also not going to be in a relationship just to be with one if I don't give a shit (or only kinda give a shit) about the girl. And most the time this has to do with famous people. Honey, I kinda like you but if Jessica Alba was here and I had a chance with her you'd be gone." I hate fucking people. I don't like Jessica Alba; I liked little, skinny Nancy from Sin City and Sam from Into the Blue. I like the characters Miss Alba wears from time to time but I'm pretty sure she wouldn't be much different (not even more attractive if you took away makeup and the personal trainer) than the girls locally. Is this the problem? Are people confusing shallow, bitchy celebs for their characters.
As I said this has bugged me since sixth grade. I had a teacher that posed the question who each of us thought was the most attractive or who we liked or wanted to date or something like that. And the class called out names that were famous and attractive at the time. I so wanted to say the name of the girl in front of me. I had had a crush on her for a while and, to me, there was no one hotter, funnier, smarter. She was tops. Of course I didn't say that (my buddy said Christie Brinkley so as to not embarrass me or the girl, I went with that answer).
I never dated anyone and told her that I thought this celebrity or that coworker was attractive. Because I didn't. I may not have dated much but I dated the ones that embodied it all for me. No, there were no huge tits (or ibts... I didn't really care as long as they had a pair) or all curves or perfect teeth or perfect eyes. I even had a girlfriend who said if she wore a garbage bag covered in shit I'd not care (though I did respond no, I'd draw the line there ).
I never understood fantasizing about unreachable others when there were more worthy people within reach. Unfortunately, those reachable women are fantasizing about Brad Pitt and skinny emo boys. I never asked a girl to be more than herself... why is it so fucking difficult to find one that only asks the same thing? It wasn't like the chorus (If you can't be with the one you love, love the one your with) she, whoever she was at the time, was THE one.
Ugh, I hate this world
