Who needs a boyfriend anyway?

I was talking today with someone who I usually like to talk to when I need advice, or someone that I can always count on for a good conversation. Today's conversation wasn't much different then our other conversations except for the fact that we talked about dating a lot more then usual. Now, as most of you know I have recently graduated high school... so I feel like I am more learned then I used to be... That's probably not the case, but that's how I feel :) I also just recently broke up with the boy I had been dating for three months. Now three months doesn't seem like a very long time, but for a girl like me thats pretty long! There were a couple different factors leading up to this break up of mine. One was that I was going out of town and I was going to be gone a month... and well I didn't want to have a boyfriend while being gone that long. The second factor was having a boyfriend was just getting old. Some people think I'm crazy, because I wasn't all that heartbroken about breaking up. But as most people know.. I'm a little different then most girls. I'm not a huge Twilight fan, I'd much rather hang out with guys then girls ( thats how most girls are... but in my case the guys actually want to hang out with me as well :) ) well at least in my opinion I'm different then most girls. But anyway, I feel like I've gotten off the topic that I wanted to wrtie about in the first place. Dating in high school... there are a lot of different types of relationships, and here are just a few that I have recognized as I've gotten older. There's that typical high school relationship where all they want to do is sleep with each other. And all I have to say about that is, well its ridiculious. I have a friend in a relationship like that, and it won't suprise me when she tells me that she's having a baby, and out of all my friends that are in relationships... she is by far the most unhappy. There's also the relationship that is well what I would call a healthy relationship. I have a friend who has been dating the same guy for almost two years, with out having sex, with out doing the immature break up, get back together business, and she is probably one of the happiest friends that I have. There's also the relationship when the boy and girl like each other, but they know it's going to end, they just like each other... so they are in a relationship. That's exactly the relationship that I was just in. I knew I was graduating early, and would then move on to bigger and better things, so the relationship would eventually end. And I just had a realization today while talking to this role model of mine... Why would I date someone when I know the relationship is going to end. It just doesn't make any sense to me. I guess that's just how I am and I thought I would write about this odd realization that I had today. I'm not saying that everyone should be like me, in the fact that I'm not going to be in a relationiship with someone unless I am planning on getting married to them. That's just me :) I'm doing great just in case anyone was wondering, I'm happy and excited about life! Untill next time <3
