Boys and Girls
I spent a night out with a good friend of mine. She asked me on the phone, to have dinner with her. It was kind of strange the she would call, it was quite sometime ago that she stopped asking me out. That night the conversation was about a friend of hers, and how that friend chose to have a solo outing with a guy and kicked her out of the pre-planned date. She was telling me about how she felt and at that moment I had empathy for her. But then I realize I did not sympathize with her. She was talking about how a friend would forget another and yet failed to realize that I could say the same about her. She had forgotten about me and her other friends till she met with the similar fate. But that night I chose to be a friend, forgiving her for her lack of realization.
So after that night, I kept thinking about it. Why’s everybody so self-absorbed, screaming for help when they need it, and when saved, walks away. I keep noticing this mostly in teenage girls, they are emotional creatures, sensitive to their own feelings and at most times, oblivious to the ones of others. These girls like to talk, ever so much, talking and talking about their problems (90% of female problems are over-rated), yet they never seem to stop and take a look around, check if people are doing fine, listen to the problems of others. Girls get so protective of themselves, and would kill to preserve themselves.
Boys are some-what different, they move in packs, and when in a pack feel strong and emotionally invulnerable, but when placed alone, could be extremely vulnerable. Boys don't really have many problems, because unlike girls, boys seem to have only a few bad feelings, anger, sadness and hunger. In other words we can be angry or sad, but girls have all the emotions that are not even named yet. Boys don't like to talk about themselves, we talk about others, we don't share much of our problems among each other, because if we say we are angry to another guy, the reply would be "relax". So there's pretty much no point to share.
