Kinda funny how we view things sometimes, I know for the most part we judge others by their actions and ourselves by our intentions. I try to keep an openmind in that respect and try to understand why someone does something, but I'm not always successful at it. I think for the most part all of us are pretty self-centered and do things with our own benefit in mind even though we try to help our fellows out it is done for the most part at our convenience.
Relationships with the opposite sex are at best very challenging or at least to me it is and I have been at it for quite a while. I have found myself very puzzled many times and hurt more than a few.
I got into a situation recently where I got more involved with someone than I had initially intended and she was also involved with someone else. It came to a point where she had to make a decision and chose to be with the other guy.
Funny part of it is that I am still pretty close to her because we share a lot of common interests and we also care about each other pretty deeply, but she still wants to stay with this other guy. I am cool with it for now, but what I think is funny is the fact that she becomes jealous when I talk about another woman or talk on the phone, stuff like that. But yet, I know when she is with this other guy and I am supposed to be ok with it and I am for the most part.
It's kindof a "cake and eat it too" situation with her but I can't really judge her for it because I can't say that I wouldn't do the same thing if I was in that situation. I'm sure I have been in the past, just feels uncomfortable being the "other" party.
Seems I get into these bad situations a lot and it seems to me that it usually turns out bad for "me". Another thing to add to the "pisses me off" list. I really have a hard time with relationships, they never seem to last very long. I have had one relationship that lasted over a year and that was my marriage that lasted 9 yrs and I think a lot of the reason that we stayed together so long was because we were sparing making two other people miserable.
I guess there isnt any real point to my blog here other than people even at their best are usually pretty self-centered in my opinion. I know that I can say that for me because it's my blog and I'll say what I want to
