Quality...?

Something that a lot of people say is: "I know they used to push me around and hurt me but they've changed." The thing about people saying that is 9 times out of 10 that is a lie that either my friends are telling themselves or a lie for a possible honeymoon phase again only it doesn't last as long. People do this kind of thing to themselves all the time in relationships because they feel as though they have to be in a relationship immediately because, either, everyone of their friends is in a relationship and it's lonely (that's me...), sex is amazing or you just have an opportunity to be with someone that looks attractive whether you like them at all or not. Rushing into relationships is never a good idea no matter what people may tell you. No matter what feelings go rushing through your body from your heart to your mind. Relationships were never meant to be rushed. They may not have been meant to be taken as slowly as some take them but moving slowly is never a bad thing. Getting back into a relationship with someone that just keeps hurting you isn't a good idea though. Getting back into that relationship shows that you are weak, it shows that you are desperate and it shows that you are easily manipulated by those around you. That is never good because most people will take advantage of that and crush your heart. Don't ever settle, that's not how you find your soul mate or what you're looking for in a person. Friendship is never a bad thing before a real, long-term relationship. I've found it's better to be friends first because it's really when you meet someone and get to know them when you realise whether you could spend more time with this person and be with them. Of course, this country seems to be all about sex and how that is the answer to problems when in reality, it brings more pain into the world because all of the lies men and women tell each other. Men and women fake love to get those good feelings for a moment before they move onto the next new and exciting thing. It's not going to stop, I don't expect it to. I will say I wish it would at least slow down. It makes me sad with how much people hurt each other with all the lies they tell each other. Honesty is always the best policy in my book. Anyway, we'll see how the world progresses through these times of hardship and I'll hope for the best with any pain in my heart that comes along for the ride. And now I say goodnight, sleep well and see you all on the other side.
