My Notes on He's Just Not That Into You

Ok so I was watching the movie, for the 5th time I think, and this time I decided to take some notes. Things that came to my mind to help me understand my own self. You know what they say, "Know thy self". So, here they go.

-Us women, we all want marriage and kids. No matter what we say, how independent or career driven we are, we all want it.

-We all want to believe. As in HOPE that the relationship works. And for us, every match instantly turns into a relationship (even if it's just in our head)

-We like to feel love and care and attention, even if we're not interested in a relationship with the person giving it to us. We're basically self esteem booster junkies.

-We are desperate and in constant need of social acknowledgement. Deep down we are sooo insecure.

-Trust...We don't know why but we always do. Even without grounds for it.

-We foolishly believe and desperately want to believe in all types of relationships: cyber relationships, LDR's, etc. And we seek for constant reassurance of them because we just want to believe.

-We may not say it, and we publicly deny it, but we are so very scared of being or ending up alone.

-We definitely like to be liked or sought after. It is a huge turn on.

-We want a relationship so much that we even believe that jerks are nice guys that need us to become nice. Where have we gotten that from? Maybe the princess and the frog...? Damn fairy tales!

-What we constantly refuse to believe: If a guy shows no interest at all, he's geniuinely NOT INTERESTED

-We are ready and willing to give up what we want/hoped/dreamed/wished for...are they? I think NOT!

-Guys don't want to get married until they propose on their own.

-Why are we the troubled ones on the commencement of relationships? Easy, guys have control. We don't. They are the ones that call or not. We just wait. Control=peace of mind, anxiety off.

-We always want to make it work, no matter what. We take accountability for it.

-No one says it out loud, but we HATE WEDDINGS. Come on it's just another reminder that someone else has found true love and we haven't. And that sucks!

-We are prepared to wait for this guy to come around to his senses and sweep us off our feet...and boy do we wait!

-We know that we are supposed to keep being like that...like girls are.

-No matter what the douchbag did, we always get to the part where we think it is our fault.

-For us sex=love, for guys sex=sex and nothing above that.

-We are willing to enter a pointless relationship just to not be lonely...it's just sad.

-Huge suckers for details. The insignificant small things definitely make the difference for us.

Well, that's what I found interesting or worth bringing up. Bottom line: being a girl can suck big time!
