Relationships Rant
So I normally stick to using Twitter for my rants but figured it much better for everyone if I don’t spam their feed for once.
Although this isn’t really one of my usual rants, I guess I just wanted air out my thoughts in a way that is more constructive than usual, and what better way than to post a blog on Tumblr?!
Alot of things have been going on in life lately, alot to do with those around me, and also some things more personal and it raised a good question: what is love in the 21st century and how do you even know if it is real?
There was once a time when it was easy to love someone, to admit it to not only them, but also be able to admit it to yourself in the first place.
These days there are alot of things that cloud what was once one of the most appreciated things in the world.
Even dating has gotten quite plain and tactless.
Back in the past going on a date meant doing everything possible to make the night one of the most amazing nights of someones life, to show them how beautiful you found them.
It meant frequent romantic dinners, late nights spent with just words.
There are still those who appreciate the special moments in love but so many people are quite happy to take someone to a night club and pash face before even having a conversation with them, and are more than happy to have sex with someone they have never spoken to before just to feel good about themselves and then never speak to them again.
Maybe I’m a fool but I find that while it is always good to progress and learn new things, some of the values of the past are a necessity in keeping good morale and maintaining happiness.
Anyone who has known me long enough knows that I used to be one of those people, but not in the same way as most: I used to do what I thought people would want me to do so I felt wanted, I thought sleeping with someone would make them want me, that drinking myself stupid and kissing everyone around me would fill the emptiness I have always felt about being alone.
But there comes a time in every person’s life where they start to grow up, to realize what truly makes them happy, what they truly want and not what society says they should want.
Those moments where you are walking down the street with someone, having a casual conversation with such ease. The look of pure adoration in their eyes, the fluttering feeling caused by the most simple actions. Things like a touch on the arm, a shy smile.
Another thing I don’t understand is when did it become so horrible to show other people respect?
These days if you tell a woman she looks beautiful, or her hair looks nice, your a kiss ass, or you want something.
People raise eye brows if you hold a door for someone, kids laugh if you help an old lady off of the bus.
What’s even worse is the lack of respect toward relationships.
People will cheat on their partners at the drop of a hat, the second you admit via social media that you are dating somebody everybody starts talking to them, half of them will try and get in the middle of a relationship and destroy other’s happiness just because they are that unsatisfied with their own lives.
Maybe I’m just overly analyzing this, maybe I’m not.
I don’t really know where I wanted to go with this, but I guess I just wanted to see if anyone else saw things the same way that I do.
Guess it’s time to end this rant aswell, I may start to air more via blogging as it seems to be alot healthier than negative or vague tweets.
This is not meant to offend anybody, it is simply my own thoughts and opinions.

When I see your smile
Tears roll down my face I can’t replace
And now that I’m strong I have figured out
How this world turns cold and it breaks through my soul
And I know I’ll find deep inside me I can be the one
I will never let you fall (let you fall)
I’ll stand up with you forever
I’ll be there for you through it all (through it all)
Even if saving you sends me to heaven
It’s okay. It’s okay. It’s okay.
Seasons are changing
And waves are crashing
And stars are falling all for us
Days grow longer and nights grow shorter
I can show you I’ll be the one
I will never let you fall (let you fall)
I’ll stand up with you forever
I’ll be there for you through it all (through it all)
Even if saving you sends me to heaven
Cuz you’re my, you’re my, my, my true love, my whole heart
Please don’t throw that away
Cuz I’m here for you
Please don’t walk away and
Please tell me you’ll stay woah, stay woah
Use me as you will
Pull my strings just for a thrill
And I know I’ll be okay
Though my skies are turning gray
I will never let you fall
I’ll stand up with you forever
I’ll be there for you through it all
Even if saving you sends me to heaven
