This is getting ridiculous.
When I was younger I was pretty uncool. I remember my first real girlfriend quite well, I would/did do anything and everything for her. One time she told me these two guys at her school were giving her a hard time, so I ditched school, drove to her school, and cornered one of them in the halls in between classes. By god’s grace, the security guard never caught me.
My little brother was the same way. He is REALLY good at long term relationships. He’s just the kind of guy that girls seem to want, personality-wise.
Me and my little bro have spent unfathomable amounts of time, money, and feeling on our relationships.
And guess what? We’ve gotten taken advantage of every time!
I seemed to notice a trend in school. Girls hang all over the Jocks, while the average guy is lucky to get attention. These guys 9/10 times end up being total jerks, but the girls go for them anyways.
So… What happened to me after high school? I started dating the cheer captain for my towns rival school. Things seemed perfect, I was starting to turn myself around. She had convinced me to join the Air Force, then fucking broke up with me before I left.
At this point, I’m in the best shape of my life. I stopped being such a dork like I was in high school and I sort of became a social butterfly. I just got out of Basic Military Training. When I got back home I went after a lot of the girls that never gave me the time of day, fucked them, and never called them again. I started doing the same with other various girls. I just didn’t give a fuck. I got what I wanted and never had to worry about being used.
I’ve settled down a lot, but I see my little brother going through the same things I went through and I see him handling things in a similar way… and guess what? I don’t blame him.
Here’s the thing… I hear people going on and own about sexism. Guys are jerks, men are scum, yadda yadda yadda. No one ever stops and thinks… ‘Oh fuck, I’ve been mean to every nice guy I’ve met. Maybe that was a fucked up thing to do. No wonder some guys can’t be bothered listening to my problems and caring about me, because girls just like me sucked the fucking life out of them.’
