SELF ESTEEM
I remember when I used to chat on AA and profile hits boosted my ego. It still does, here on FilCa, but not as much. Is it ok for girls to build their self-esteem thru how boys pay attention to them? In a way, I guess it's ok. Not entirely. Here comes the cliche, esteem should come from within. That's why it's called 'self' esteem. No body should ever feel inferior just because the opposite sex don't pay as much attention to them, especially when the world's just full of shallow people who are interested in physical appearances. I've been on both sides.
TRUST
Remember when your parents used to not trust you? (I do) It's the most annoying feeling in the world. I believe my parents and I are now in better terms. But I'm still untrusted by someone else. It's the most annoying feeling in the world. People who can't trust me after a year can fuck off.
LIVING LIKE YOU'RE SINGLE
What's wrong with it? When a person's in a relationship, why do people expect him/her to see that person, almost always, with his/her partner? I mean, they're not married.
CELL PHONES
Can you live without it? Of course we all know the answer, yes! Lately I've been leaving my cellphone at home, and I must say, it's quite liberating, like going commando. I mean, I really don't need one. I live in a city where payphones are ubiquitous.
GETTING HITCHED EARLY
Would I be correct if I said marrying early has the advantage of getting things your way at a young age; eg: getting your dream house etc., having your kids go to college early, therefore you get to live your life earlier than most people...provided of course you work for it.
ONE PLUS ONE EQUALS?
If two people in a relationship came from a generally fucked up family, will their relationship be as meaningful compared to a) two people who came from a generally 'ok' family b) one of the persons come from a really fucked up family and the other one comes from a well rounded family (at least there's a balance)? Or will they just strive to work things out eventually ending up with a fucked up relationship? Or will it be - + - = +?
I put these thoughts in my journal because they are MY thoughts. I don't want to start threads regarding these topics.
