enough!

womenfolk:

STOP reading into male behavior. DO NOT anticipate what they will do. STOP structuring your actions so that they may result in a particular reaction from a man.

yes, to us, certain behaviors are logical. (why wouldn't he do that? it only makes sense!) but men are human beings. they are erratic, wily, and unpredictable. as are we.

furthermore, all of the crap i listed above amounts to games. STOP playing games. be grown. act like you're a grown ass woman deserving of a grown ass man.

so please spare yourself the agony, and communicate in order to obtain the answers you need. STOP waiting for an answer they may not realize they need to provide. and as long as you're not crazy and/or out of line (though crazy may sometimes be necessary), DO NOT worry about how they will react to your desire for honesty and clarity. those elements are basic. empathy is certainly a virtue, but we are NOT supposed to care about our crushes/f#ck buddies/boyfriends/husbands more than we care about ourselves. in what world does that make sense? and if someone tells you otherwise, feed them to the sharks.

/end rant.
