Is that all a relationship is? Keeping up appearances? Sure you can kiss, shag, socialise with others as a couple, visit places together, but I get the impression that without viewing of eachother on a permanent basis, then that's a failure. It's hard to explain, but that's exactly how me and my girl ended up. Didn't see enough of eachother, so split. It's a shame, but it had to come to an end and i'm just glad we split on amicable terms. :)
I think I now have something against them. There's a lot of money to be spent on loved ones, that's just been proven once again with Valentines Day. There's also a lot of dedication involved, maybe too much for me now that i've just finished my first major relationship. Having to visit the other half as often as possible, having to please them when you're feeling shitty about certain things, trying to follow trends of thiers so as not to look like a lagger, it's too much I think.
I'm dribbling on. Quite simply, relationships are for people who believe they have the time and thought for others but themselves. Not my thing. I urge everyone to try it even if doubtful about the other person; get the first time over with, hate / enjoy it then go from there. I was average in mine. Started off great, then the truth started to hit me later on at the end stages. A shame really cos she was brilliant, but hey ho, the show must go on as a brilliant group once said. Enjoy life, consider relationships and enjoy life.
