For The Double X

Girls like drama too much. They feel that drama make their life more interesting. When they read books or watch movies, they think that is how life supposed to be. They choose too ignore the fact that books and movies put life under the microscope so that the story will be more readable and watch-able. They don’t want to accept that fairy tales are just made-up stories. It’s not that they are stupid, but that’s just how they are.

They want their life to be out of the ordinary. That’s what they dreamt of since early on. When it comes to love, it’s not enough to just find a guy who loves them that they can love back. No, it has to be spectacular. The guy has to serenade and sing to them under heavy thunderstorms. While the typhoon is blowing houses off the ground, they want the guy to read love poems to them.

They have to meet the guy under dramatic situations too, like if a pen slipped from a girl’s hand, a guy who was a complete stranger, has to drop everything that he was doing, jumped at least three floors down and moved fast enough in time to get to the freaking pen before it touches the floor. That’s what they want. The dramatic effect.

Even though they really want all that, they do realise that it’s not likely to happen. They are smart, eventually they will figure it out. They know their life is not out of the ordinary because they are only ordinary girls. No guys would jump off KLCC for them because again they are just ordinary girls. But girls still want that fairy tale kind of life. They think hard and feel they found a solution. Using their amazingly smart brain they found a solution. They turned to depression.

For them, depression will make their life exciting and meaningful. They exaggerated their problems into an armageddon of some sort. Girls want everyone to think that they have been through a lot, hell in fact, so everyone will say ‘You poor girl, now you just sit tight and I’ll get you everything that you need’. In their depression they can be as horrible as they want, as selfish as they want and no one can blame them. ‘She is depressed ok, cut her some slack!’.

They alter their expectations and demands. They say they don’t expect much from a guy. All they ask is for the guy to ‘prove’ his love. Whatever normal guys do, no matter how much time, efforts, thoughts and money spent will not be enough. “I still don’t feel loved,” a girl will say. “I can’t see his determination in wanting me;” another girl would say.

They will turn into this horrendous monster of the sole purpose to torture guys who fell in love with them.

“Sorry I’m late. My boss won’t let me go.”
“You just never try hard enough for me.”
“But I did argue with my boss. When he won’t let me leave, I called him a ‘big ape’. Now I’m in trouble. I don’t think I’ll get that promotion now. And goodbye to my bonus this year.”
“You should have quit then. You are late. You don’t love me enough.”
No chance in hell for the guy to win.

I love girls. For me they are amazing. It’s like all the good, pretty, sweet DNA went to chromosome X and the rest went to chromosome Y. Honestly that’s how I feel. I imagine I would treat a girl with all the sweetness and love, as much as I can. But the girl has got to earn the right first. The problem is most girls feel that being born a female, they automatically earned the right to be treated as a princess. That’s wrong. Earn the right first and I’m sure you will eventually get the fairy tale you have been dreaming of.

And please accept the fact that we guys have our own limitation. We make mistakes, act stupid but that doesn’t mean we love you less.

Sincerely, I would give everything I have to make your fairy tale comes true. But earn the right first. That is all I’m asking.
