GiRlz like BoYz . . .

Has anyone ever considered that "GiRlz like BoYz" but boys don't like girls?

There are several men that believe that women end up in bad situations because they allow bad situations to happen. With all factors taken into consideration, this can't be completely un-true, but it's definitely not completely true either, right? I mean that's like saying that anything bad that happens to a person is their fault, which is not true; yet there is a point to where the decisions we make gravely impact life's conditions.

Today, I spoke with my very good friend, who also happens to be my first love, about my preparation for my journey. Although he thought blogging was a little silly, he was still very supportive. We talked about me for a while but eventually, the conversation turned to him and he began arguing the point as to why men don't like commitment. I've heard the argument that men are afraid of commitment but coming from the same man that wanted to get married to me , it was difficult to take. I asked him if there was a way to conquer this fear and he said, "no, there's no going back."

This was hard for me to wrap my brain around because he was always my point of reference for a good guy. He was my example of a boy that liked girls. Most guys that I've come across recently, objectify women. When discussing this topic with them, they allude to some form of boredom with us, as if women are more of a form of entertainment than a partner. In contrast, women talk about the topic as if they still like men, despite the hurts and pains. They are still ready to love.

So on one side pain results in bitterness and fear, yet on the other side women keep asking for more.

My conclusion: boys don't like girls, GiRlz like BoYz. Men get hurt and decide to love one woman, who stands out above the rest; Women get hurt, bare the pain and continue to see hope in at least most of men, in spite of the fact that the odds are against us.

I don't know which side is better.
