Years ago I saw an episode of Seinfield where Jerry just started dating a new girl. One moment he would look at this girl and she would be so incredibly beautiful and he would be dumbstruck and at the next glance she would be absolutely hideous and he would be disgusted. And honestly, that's all I remember from the episode, and frankly I could even be remembering the episode's storyline incorrectly... but needless to say, I am finding that I am sadly relating to this dating situation.
But I'm relating to it on a different note. While Jerry was conflicted by his girlfriend's drastic contrasts in physical appearances, I'm confused from my boy's drastic personality difference.
One moment, I will love him entirely. He will make me laugh continuously, let me speak my mind unashamed, and allow me to wholly comfortable with my appearance and thoughts.
The next, he'll act incredibly immature and unmotivated. And I'm instantly turned off by his inability to act his age and accept life challenges like an adult.
And because the latter strong conflicts with my outlook on life and will definitely cause problems in our future, after he has his one of his immaturity spells, I always intend to confront him about it and end our fling. But it's always in those moments that he instantly changes personalities and becomes the boy I adore again.
And maybe it's because he can read the disapproval on my face, maybe it's because he realizes his stupidity on his own, or maybe it's just fate telling me to give him more of a chance.
But regardless, I wish I knew how that episode of Seinfield ended. At least then I would then have somewhat of an example to base my decision on.
