of the doors...
(note that some of the seemingly chauvanistic views discussed below were actually thrown up by a woman)so i was havin coffee with an annoymous friend
(let's call her L for discussion's sake)
and we were talkin about a "situation" that seems to be gettin quite prevalent these days, like how me and L both personally have female frens who are experiencing this...
how mid-20s women, graduates, well-speaking, relatively successful in their careers, relatively hot, all seem to
NOT be meetin good men
many issues were thrown up;
how good men are either all married or gay
how some women are "dating down" - dating men that are lower-educated, or earning a smaller paycheck than them, etc
how *gasp* some of these women including L, are considering going for SDU activities
how due to education, financial independence, social status, that they actually don't NEED a man to get by, but at the end of the day, they are but still - women.
i actually think it's quite important to not shut doors
u don't have to open every door each time u hear a knock
but slam each door shut and u will never find out wat could potentially possibly be behind them.
that said,
it is also important that we, as human beings, have standards
it doesnt have to be sky-high standards
but to expect from others what others have come to expect of you
that's pretty fair? no?
i think L shld jus get out more
meet more people, do more things, go to more places.
and her being her,
i'm pretty sure she'll be just fine..
