It's Complicated

I fail to understand why do people fall for the wrong person.

Is it that feeling inside you that tells you "noooo you shouldn't like this person!!"

makes us even more attracted to that certain person.

I'm writing this post because I've had my absolute no no, yet it's somewhat of an infatuation our society seems to linger around.

Okay let me give you an example:

If you we're a Dawson's Creek fanatic, you surely will know this scenario... if not... it'll catch on

Joey & Professor Wilder (yes my story does involve a prof, but nothing in any form has happened, thank gosh)

Made the connection yet? If not, too bad, haha. (I'll put the pieces together since I'm nice)

Just last semester I had built somewhat of a crush on my prof, yes, I admit it. SO I'll use me as an example of where I'm headed towards.

Why do people tend to want older people (usually girls) & guys want younger chicks?

I've came to the conclusion that well girls tend to want older men because : a) most are much more responsible b) they have their act together c)tht whole theory tht girls develop faster than guys thing.....

Anyways I've found myself in that position & currently he is my ex-prof now... but I'm beginning to feel that the world is against me. I've ran into him at In-N-Out & all of a sudden he has just recently somewhat told me his life story, wow. Talk about student/prof violation, lol.

Sadly, I criticized his type of baggage material to carry "stuff" as he calls it, in(a brown paper bag... I basically called him a homeless man)

Anyways I'm going off topic...... why do we fall for the wrong people... is it something we must all face... does every college student fall into that same trap of trying to experience that cliche college experience with that one professor..... or is it possibly helping us to find our future mates?

Can really many "wrongs" make a right? Can that hopeless romantic really find their Juliet/Romeo? Or are we living in a society where careers are our mate??

Can We Still Be Friends?

(SO I would typically write this for those who just graduated hs, but I think this can apply to many people)

It's been a year since I've left this thing called "high school" & I've been facing reality- big world, crazy people & insane economy (& our gen is expected to fix it.) As insane as this world may tend to be, we seem to cling to our social world & hope day by day we never lose our inner circle.

We promise that we'll be "bff's forever" yet some tend to deteriorate life after high school.

Isn't that why we have that one saying, "Don't keep promises you can't keep."

I'm generally very optimistic, yet I'm a bit of a realist. You truly can't say you'll be "bff's forever" until you've truly been tested- think of it as a marriage, it takes effort; those who are true will stick around when you: are insanely crazy, idiotic or lets say vomiting in the public toilet (thank god that hasn't been me)

We change our inner circle like clothes, yet people fail to realize it. The people you thought in high school would never hang out with... you do... the people you talked behind their backs, all of a sudden is your new bff. We are shape shifters in some aspect; rather than socializing the most idiotic subjects you tend to crave more of an intelligent convo (hmm do I sense a bit of maturity!)

Last Spring semester I was somewhat enlightened by a college friend of mine.

"As we get older, we tend to surround ourselves with people who have the same ambitions, don't you think? And those who aren't part of that world either hide behind closed doors, or not part of our life."

I thought to myself, this is true & I began to analyze the people in my life... but of course we don't wish to lose our close friends.... it just happens... and when we do reencounter them, what do we talk about?

I've had my share of "tests" but I can honestly say, there's one bff that will always be around...
