Burford – A Whole New Way To Rant
Well, it is official. What women say about men is true, and what men say about women is true. So here goes the biggest pair of generalisations in the history of humanity. Seriously.
In a nutshell, a dude screwed over a good friend of mine by leaving her for another woman. Twice.
I mean, what the eff you see kay?!
After she had come back from a grief-relieving holiday, I made it my mission to give this lady her confidence back, and for a large part mission was successful. We even dated for a couple of weeks, and it was going swimmingly.
He came back, pestered her with phone calls, which made her cry alot, and she dumped me due to being scared that I’ll hurt her.
Now, this was a few weeks ago. Forward to present day: She’s getting back with the twice-leaving bloke.
I asked her about this (numerous times since we’re back to being mates, which I’m more cool with than being with her for some reason), and she said that she “is comfortable with him even though she knows he’ll hurt her again and again”
Hold on.
Previous blokey hurt her, lots.
She didnt want to be with me because she’s scared of being hurt.
So she’s getting back with bloke who hurt her, because she knows she’ll get hurt anyway.
This has happened to three of my female friends. Are women inherently emotionally mascocistic?
I’m so angry, I’m suffering from a bad case of direct rage, incomprehension, and just general “I’m going to rip the f**king blokes arms off” syndrome. To rememdy this, I’m going to Dannychoo.com and have a few beers.

My god that’s so retarded! I don’t understand either! How could she go back to him?? Maybe there’s some other reason behind it?

She cant be mean to anyone, as it makes her cry. She just told me “maybe I need to be more understanding to him”
Frustration is off the charts

I’m against stereotyping, but I must say that I also know a feel gals that also behave like that.
Fortunately, not every girl is like that… but I think there are several people, not only girls, that just like to be “the victim”, “the martyr” and like to engage in relationships where they know they’lll suffer, so other people feel pity.
There are several cases of domestic violence that is just like that… the husband keeps beating the wife, but the wife never do anything about it, even when there’s nothing keeping the wife from ending the relationship.

Hmm… I can’t seem to understand that girl’s way of thinking…
Why do something that would hurt you.. it’s endearing to be a nice person but, not if you’re hurting yourself.
That’s being **too** nice, methinks.
Well, I do hope that she’ll understand to care for herself as well..
