Its a war of the sexs dont let it get blurred....

So I'm sitting here at my dining room table, enjoying my disgusting hot pocket and drinking my gatorade, when I came across this article on a World of Warcraft blog I like to read (don't hate). Anyway, the article is named Sugar and Spice, Snakes and Snails, and its a breakdown of how people in reality according to gender. (http://ferarro.blogspot.com/2010/03/sugar-and-spice-snakes-and-snails.html)

Now please, take the time and read that article. It has a wonderful point of view, well organized and structured, and for the most part I do agree with what she is saying. But only one thing its biased from a female perspective. Not in a negative way, but it makes you sympathize with the male population.

Okay. Maybe not really.

But thats not the point. The point I'm trying to get to is that guys can be just as evil as girls, sometimes to the point where you're disgusted just to be around them.

Yeah, guys do take care of conflicts in a shorter timespan that girls, for the most part, but that's only publicly. I, myself, am a very peaceful, loving person. So I tend to let any conflict drop as soon as I can convince the other party to do the same. But some of the horror stories that I've heard.

Yeah, girls will spread rumors, start shit on facebook, do whatever they can to try and destroy a persons social life. But some guys will go straight for the fucking throat. I'm not saying they'll try to kill you, but what I am saying is that they attack the spot that hurts the most, your heart. They will try to turn your own friends against you, blackmail you, even try to fuck your girlfriend/significant other if they hate you enough.

Girls attack one another through spite.
Guys use raw anger and hatred.


But enough about that, onto a different topic of that article that I really enjoyed. And that's the section about one of my lifelines, music.

You can tell a lot about people by the music they listen. Whether its from watching how they react when they hear one of their favorite songs. Or just by the lyrics that go into it, be it full of hatred and disgust, or passion and love. Personally, I love all music. Mainly just because I understand each individual song represents an emotion, and I can relate to that.

Perfect example is a song by a band named Zox. The one song they made entitle "Eventually" is a quite simple guitar progression (consisting of a total of 6 chords) but absolutely amazing lyrically.

So baby wont you be part of my fantasy?
'Cause I can't sit around and wait until "eventually"
Let me take you home and watch your garden grow
A little closer and I'll make it so you can't say no

And its making me crazy
to be your friend when your my fantasy
my fantasy.

Now if you can't relate to that, you should probably question your friendships then.
Because if you've ever had a best friend of the opposite gender YOUR GOING TO FALL IN LOVE WITH THEM

Plain and simple folks. And dont bullshit me and say "No, that's not true. They're like a brother/sister to me! I could never think of them like that!"

Bullshit.

You have, you may not realize right now, but you have. Guys especially. How many times have you sat there, on the phone, at like 3am, when you have work at 7, listening to you're friend bitch and complain how their boyfriend treats them like crap and you just think "MEEEEEEEEEE!!!! YOU NEED TO DATE MEEEEEEEE!!!!!"

Girls I know you do the same thing too, but I do understand as to why you don't act on it....

You don't want to lose them

It's a scary thought when you realize what your life would be like without this person in it, but you have to realize, all bridges crumble, not matter how strong the foundation is, with the sands of time always moving, erosion is bound to occur. Your best guy or girl friend won't be there for you for the rest of their lives. And you wanna know why? Because they more than likely found a girl/boy to invest those emotions that were being otherwise wasted on you. In other words:

you will be replaced

harsh? yes.
uncalled for? maybe.
False? no.

I've seen it happen, even in my own relations with someone, but don't go and get upset. Hell, its more of a reason to believe in the title of this blog "Remember you will die, but don't forget to live"

So yeah, you might lose your friend down the road, and I'm telling you, you won't even realize they're missing till they're in another state. But don't waste those feelings, those raw emotions.

Because, hell, they're your best friend for a reason....They understand and love your being.
