Thoughts Inspired by a Friend

I wrote this blog on a different site a while back after talking to a friend I'll modify it and add to it for this blog. This friend really means a lot to me because when I was going through some of the hardest times of my life she was always there to talk. Anyways here are some thoughts that she inspired me to blog about:

First topic... nice guys finish last. Just to put it in context, I consider myself a nice guy. I do not think that nice guys finish last though. There are a lot of women out there that miss out on opportunites because they over look the nice guy but really it is their loss and the nice guy deserves better. He deserves a women who is looking for a nice guy and who can truely appreciate him for who he really is. So... to the women who are looking primarily for an extremely hot man with nice abs or whatever or the guy that has a lot of money and you can overlook him acting like an asshole and/or being just plain fuckin' stupid... all I have to say is good luck with that.

Second topic... being single. Being single is not a bad thing although I'm positive I can not convince my grandmother of that. I started dating a girl regularly a few weeks before seeing my grandmother at Christmas just so that I could tell her I was seeing someone when she asked. Personally I think that its important to be comfortable and happy with one's self. I think its dangerous to rely on a significant other for happiness because there will be times in every relationship that things will be rocky and if you are depending on that person for happiness and they aren't providing it you are fucked. People that constantly go straight from one relationship to another scare me. I don't think its healthy at all. Yeah... if you read this Amy or Sarah or CK sorry... you scare me... but some guys are into that... just not me... good luck with that.

Third topic... past mistakes. Nobody is perfect and I have a lot more respect for the person that admits they have and will make mistakes then the person that is dishonest to everyone and pretends to be perfect. That is something I look for in my friends. In the words of Sick Puppies, "I don't mind where you come from as long as you come to me. I don't like illusions I can't see them clearly. I don't care, no I wouldn't dare to fix the twist in you. You've shown me eventually what you'll do. I don't mind. I don't care. As long as you're here." So to those who bullshit like that... good luck with that.

And now the music video for the referenced song...
