Fizzling

Can I just say something?

I miss dating and courtship. The reason I say that is because I feel like I have been in a lot of "half-relationships" lately. Like, it will be obviously that this guy and I like each other, it will look like it has potential, and then it just fizzles.

I think the most frustrating part is the fizzling. My definition of fizzling is when both people just stop talking to each other. I think it's because I like to know exactly why something didn't work out, and I like to talk things out. And maybe it's because I've been broken up with twice now and I would really like to break up with somebody for a change!

No, I know exactly why it is so frustrating to fizzle. Because there was no commitment involved OR INTENDED. It's like I'm the pretend girlfriend so you get all the benefits with none of the commitment. All of the fun and none of the work. And if it starts even remotely looking like work, then these boys get scared and run away.

Why is there such a fear of commitment in our age group?!? Did society just forget to add that to our Wheaties? I'm the kind of person that's either all in or nothing, but maybe that's because I never liked Wheaties. I'm a passionate person, and I will give my all to something or I just won't do it at all.

Think on THAT next time you munch on your Breakfast of Champions.
