Do u really understand ur boyfriend?
Today, I’ve got a surprise visit from my friends. They wanted to invite me for a chat over coffee. (normally, we’d chat over coffee) But, today it was different. I invited them to my house for some girly chat over some hot fragrant Chinese tea. Not that it makes any difference except for the fact that it’s healthier…haha.
While we were catching up on news of our school mates, the topic of boyfriends cropped up. My friend just had a quarrel with her boyfriend. She was pretty unhappy about it. So, we had a good talk. Boyfriends are they really worth all the heart problems they give? Are we really happy more often than we’re sad? Seriously, I’ve met more friends that are unhappy abt their relationship with their bf’s rather than happy. What is actually the reason for this?
We talked about their weaknesses and strengths. Whoa…looks like we’re doing SWOT analysis on the boys. Haha. :p To be fair, it’s not really entirely the fault of the guys. Sometimes, girls can be pretty unreasonable. Don’t talk about the minority…not abt PMS too! *pre-menstrual symptoms. Not all girls, are unreasonable. Boys could be really getting on our nerves too! Especially, male chauvinistic types…. (this does not include the BAD boys) It just covers the good guys out there but have a ‘big’ man attitude. My friend’s bf is this type of guy, a really good man but has too big of an ego. Not really a good thing. He’s not willing to listen anything she says…but treats her and her family exceptionally well. To these guys, there is nothing a man can’t do except give birth to babies. Sheesh…
So, she asks me whether she should forgive the guy. I told her “A relationship has to be based by two people who are in love with one another; each should accept each other for their good and bad" Although, we know they are not perfect. But, there are times, it drives us crazy. Both parties have to be able to give and take with each other. But, when we talk about weaknesses…let me explain further. (continue reading)
Please, everything has a limit. Even weaknesses…must have a limit. You have to be willing to change for one another. Don’t say, I am like that…you have to accept me the way I am. OH PLEASE…WHEN YOU ARE WRONG, JUST ADMIT IT. As girls, I understand that men have an ego. Don’t we all do? There are times, where the word ‘sorry’ could do wonders for a relationship. JUST SIT DOWN, COOL DOWN and TALK. So simple…give each other a chance. This would do wonders and who knows….might even reduce the divorce rates around the world. Hehe.
So, I may not be the relationship expert here. However, I do know a thing or two. Another thing, I heard from my guy-friends that girls nowadays are getting more and more materialistic. Sounds familiar? The only thing I can comment is that I have to admit that some girls are more materialistic…and others are just being realistic. It’s two different things. I’ll explain more about it, next time. My blog is already too long. Haha.
Girls out there love urself. It’s important for us to love ourselves.
Love you. MUaks!
