for me, the song is not about a chick
-
I've worked hard to get where I am at an early age (23). I make decent money. I'm not rich, but I do well for my age. I try to stay in good health (in the past year I lost over 100 pounds because I missed being in shape). I always try coming to work happy. I am energetic most of the time and try and stay exited about life. What does this evaluate to? I only have two friends left. One doesn't want to be around anymore because I go to dance clubs and he doesn't want to. The other is so insecure that he gets pissed if a girl shows me more attention, but when the opposite is true everything is honky-dory by him. I lost a five year friendship because he decides to reveal his gayness after I get back into shape, and I am not gay. I lost an eight year friendship because that moron got married within two weeks of meeting some girl. She plainly confessed and acted like she was attracted to me, so that friendship ended real quickly. You can't win for losing. Now, I'm considered spastic and too "wired". Any athlete will tell you that when you have energy to burn, you want to burn it. But, as usual, I travel the harder road all alone and none of my lazy friends understand this concept. As long as I'm complaining... let's not forget 99% of women are gold diggers. The exception is if they already have money. If they don't, they always care about how much their man makes. Some people strive harder than others, and yet still end up saddened - go figure. I'm tired of being the one to motivate others. People see me loosing weight and they want to loose weight, but not until after they see me do it (then they give up). What the hell? Then, when I have my weak days (and eat a candy bar or something) they are disappointed in me. WTF, I lost a shitload of weight and I exercise a lot, and there are times I need carbs (just a better source than a candy bar or pizza). And recently, I've gone against one of my fundamental beliefs of not lying so I could be "the nice person." Someone is crooked (long story), and yet for me to be honest about it I'm the asshole. Ok, I'm done venting. Damn CP can be therapeutic. I can say whatever and don't have to look anyone in the face when I do. Herm. I'll feel better soon; I just didn't have anyone else to vent to at the moment. No replies needed as long as I know someone read it and understands the point. I'm done rambling. I'll go now.

Walk your own road, Jeremy, and you'll find those along that road that you'll be more happy with. You've got a long, long way to go and if old friendships have died then you'll find new ones, and probably look back on the old ones and realise some of them were based on convenience, shared interests or just on the fact that you were in the same place at the same time (eg School, work) with them.

Maybe my mangling might misguide malicious miscreants momentarily?Chris is right about the whole friends thing. Also as you mature you change and your friends change as well. I'm under the feeling that adults have very few real friends, but possibly close aquaintances. If you do settle down with someone oneday eg a partner, I advise you that this person needs to be more than just a lover but a close friend. Its darn hard to meet the "right" girls, just what are the 'right' girls? Also if you are flashy with money cars and clothes you are sending out signals for gold-diggers. Regardz Colin J Davies

Maybe I should elaborate. I know they are not all gold diggers per sé, but they tend to look for the men that can provide for them and/or a current/future family unless they are "liberated" and/or already wealthy. More often than not, even if money seemingly isn't the main criterion for a chick, it's at least an important one. This is compounded by the fact that - at least where I am from - women are taught to be taken care of and men are taught to provide for women and family. I have no problem doing this - in fact I like it. But, when a woman is influenced in her decision about me because of it, then I can't stand it simply because if me as a person is not the real reason we are together then she'll be more liable to cheat, etc. down the road. Marriage isn't quite as honored as it used to be, and we all know how quickly a woman can change her mind. And yes, I know this from experience. And yes, I don't trust most women (thanks to my mother, people I know, etc.). And yes, I would love nothing more than to be proven dead wrong, but it hasn't happened yet. :( Jeremy L.

Correct selection of partner must be of the highest importance. Too many marraiges are based on looks, love, sex etc. That are factors that are not permanent. I think any girl who doesn't value money is darn short sighted so I'd rather have a bit of that. My only advice is to keep looking. It's interesting how many girls also are without partners., and never the two sets seem to mix. Regardz Colin J Davies

I settled down because I met someone worth settling down with, not because she was the best thing going at the time. So I say don't worry about when it's time to settle down, just meet people, have friends, and one day you'll meet someone and decide that at whatever age you are, it's time to settle down.

Firstly, Jeremy, congrats on dropping 100 pounds. That is one heck of an amount of weight to loose, you've done well there. I know it's easy to take what advice I'm about to give with a pinch of salt, but I use it in my own life everyday and it works. No matter what happens in your life, your mind will reach out, grab it, and interpret it in some form. The optimist will find the good in it. The pessimist will find the bad in it. When bad thoughts enter your mind, just discard them, because at the end of the day, they are only thoughts - they are fabricated in your head. They do not represent what is happening out there in the real world. That is the difference between a happy and usually depressed person. A happy person is able to say "well, here's a bad thought entering my head, out it goes, on with my life.". The depressed person will dwell on it and his mind will exaggerate it. Why dwell on things? If you think about it, it's so silly! It only makes you feel worse and yet nothing has changed. Discard bad thoughts, because they are only thoughts, and do not exist. Once you learn to do this, you'll find that you'll be a lot happier with life. I'm not saying you're a pessemist or depressive, but just try what I have suggested. Congrats once again on your weight loss. :) :-D Simon Following an eye test, I have discovered that I do not need pointdexter-style glasses with 6-inch thick steel frames in order to continue staring at my monitor.

Firstly, Jeremy, congrats on dropping 100 pounds. That is one heck of an amount of weight to loose, you've done well there. I know it's easy to take what advice I'm about to give with a pinch of salt, but I use it in my own life everyday and it works. No matter what happens in your life, your mind will reach out, grab it, and interpret it in some form. The optimist will find the good in it. The pessimist will find the bad in it. When bad thoughts enter your mind, just discard them, because at the end of the day, they are only thoughts - they are fabricated in your head. They do not represent what is happening out there in the real world. That is the difference between a happy and usually depressed person. A happy person is able to say "well, here's a bad thought entering my head, out it goes, on with my life.". The depressed person will dwell on it and his mind will exaggerate it. Why dwell on things? If you think about it, it's so silly! It only makes you feel worse and yet nothing has changed. Discard bad thoughts, because they are only thoughts, and do not exist. Once you learn to do this, you'll find that you'll be a lot happier with life. I'm not saying you're a pessemist or depressive, but just try what I have suggested. Congrats once again on your weight loss. :) :-D Simon Following an eye test, I have discovered that I do not need pointdexter-style glasses with 6-inch thick steel frames in order to continue staring at my monitor.

No, Jeremy, I think that's slightly less than half the world's population. :P Christian The tragedy of cyberspace - that so much can travel so far, and yet mean so little.
