don't hate the player

i was thinking that there's just no way to avoid the game. everyone says, "oh, i hate games," in terms of relationships but it's like...everybody does it. i think probably (maybe?) when it's really, really right, like when you're finally with the person you're truly meant to be with forever (if that happens), maybe there's no thought of the game because there's no time for thought because everything just falls into place and oh, what a wonderful thing that must be. but in the meantime, when do you call? how long do you wait? how much do you reveal? when do you know if he/she likes you as much as you like them? i mean people say shit all the time but it doesn't mean it's true. i learned that the hard way recently, once and for all. i don't really have any answers here but basically i've come to the conclusion that you either play the game or you don't date. that's just the way it goes. i hope someone proves me wrong soon.

i want to get into all of these things about love and how do you know when something's for real and if you end up easily getting over someone does it mean you didn't feel as intensely as you thought you did or just that you're getting older and more jaded or more accepting or more boring...but i don't have time. i'm off on a mini road trip with my british friend rachel today through friday. but i'll get to all of that, i promise. and i just want to thank everyone who's reading so far. i welcome your feedback as well. why are "good morning" and "good afternoon" basically considered greetings but "good night" is a farewell? maybe i'll just start saying "aloha." anyway it's afternoon and i leave you now, so good afternoon.

p.s: thank you to kaitlyn and arlan for the input on my blog title. and thanks to arlan for telling her friends and fans about me. i swear i have much more to say. just keep coming back. :)

Sometimes I think the only thing to do is think about it as little as you possibly can. Obviously this can be somewhat uhhh...impossible, but it's important to try. Once you start thinking about it, you get into the dangerous realm of 'How do I know if anyone is being real with me EVER?!', you know? I think you have to just go with it, be on guard to some extent, but also open to all possibilities. Sometimes you'll get hurt, sometimes you'll hurt others. That's life I suppose?

God, Arlan is soooo funny, but she's right. Your blog is great, & I'm so proud of you. You're such a good writer, & I'm happy that you're sharing it with the world, at last. Keep up the wonderful work, cause I really look forward to reading whatever you write.

i don't think its fair to generalize relationships by saying you hate them- when you're in one everything is great. its always in hindsight that you hate it because something went wrong...

have you seen magnolia? there is this one amazing scene in it where both characters on the date agree to be completely honest and it works.
