Here's what I don't understand about human relationships. Squids, though intelligent for a mullosk, are not that smart, but they can wave their tentacles about for ten minutes and find a life-long mate. Humans, on the other hand, although being quite intelligent and smart, as seen by our accomplishments, take years to find 'a perfect mate', going through a trial and error process, some going through a hundred or so potential mates until they find the right one, IF they find the right one.
What the hell? Are we just dumb? I mean, you can talk about emotions, and love, and the way people act all day long, but when it comes down to it, none of that stuff really matters! In the middle ages, people were more than content to be married to the best person they or their parents could find, usually not even thinking about love.
Sometimes I wish we had a better system.

TENTACLES WHERE?! OwO
ReplyDeleterofl, nice. i think the problem with humans is that they feel the need to find the best mate,and pretend to be somebody else to get that mate. then when they are unhappy with that person, they end up breaking up. the problem is that they don't learn from the experience, and repeat it with the next person. in the end it takes them many many tryie to figure it out.
ReplyDeleteAlex, just wow.
ReplyDeleteJeremy,
I don't know about that. I do know that people don't learn the lessons of their past, for whatever reason.
And we shouldn't need to find the best mate; we should find a compatible mate. Which gives me an idea for my next post.
Hm... I'm not one to believe in a set fate, but it's such a nice thought to believe there's someone out there who is yours and yours alone, and you're the only person for them. I think people focus too much on looking for that person that they seem to think someone who isn't absolutely perfect isn't worth it at all. I was alone a LONG time, completely alone, no friends or anything, so I'm glad to just have someone, you know? Jenny's like my big sister, and I'd do anything for her just because she keeps me from being alone n.n
