Speechless

"I think it's a woman thing: We're taught that there are some things that you should never say to a man-- never expose your flaws, never explain your fears, and certainly never ask for anything more. ..

I've asked friends going through difficult relationship times if they ever talk to their partner about their desires and fears and what they want out of said relationship, and I've gone through that same process of being guilty of not doing it, too. We women never say these things, because we like you so much that if it doesn't go over well, we don't want to lose you or the relationship totally, because as very wise yet very desperate people once said, something is better than nothing. But how much of "something" is better than us feeling like we're taken by our partners as a "nothing"? "

Swallowing your pride and fear to say things like these can be difficult, but it has to be done. Just like how you can't get mad at someone for doing something if you've never spoken to them about it, you also can't expect things to change or get better or magically rectify themselves if you never bring the issue up.

The writer of this blog is my hero. It amazes me how she writes so well, has gone through a lot of experiences and is as old as I am. A highly recommended blog to read if you're a girl and you want some advice or entertainment. :)

On another note, really SF? Seriously? Removing the happy meal toy isn't going to help as much as having GOOD PARENTING SKILLS on teaching what your kid should or shouldn't eat. I loved getting the happy meal toys when I was little, especially the beanie baby ones. This is just like banning junk foods in SF high schools. SO DUMB.
