Marine girlfriends bugggggggggggg me....even though I am one. I really hope I wasn't like "they" are when I first started dating Andrew. For example, Andrew is in the field this week but no one would ever know that because I haven't complained once about how much I miss talking to him or how I'm so sad that he is in the field. First, that's pathetic. Girls have to get their own lives outside their boyfriends. If it was a deployment I would definitely understand the feelings of sadness, trust me, I've been there...or heck even if they were in the field for a month straight. But come on.....if you're boyfriend is in the field for 4 days and you are SOOOO sad that you haven't gotten to hear his voice at night and you can't sleep because he hasn't called to say good night, you need to grow up. Simple as that. Maybe I am just used to this whole marine corps thing by now since it has been apart of my life for 3 years, but geez. Also, I guess that is why I have more friends that are wives then girlfriends. And, let me make this clear, I am not by any means talking about ALL marine girlfriends. Just certain ones that make me wanna throw up.
Oh, one more thing that I have noticed here lately (and it doesn't even involve me) that really bugs me is the way people brag. I get that you are ecstatic that your boyfriend called, but please please don't copy and paste the same exact status over and over again every single day. Or brag about how your boyfriend is spoiling you with all these phones calls when you know for a fact other girls haven't had that opportunity. I know when Andrew was deployed I would post about how he called, but not EVERY.SINGLE time. I don't even know this girl really, but even she bugs me and my boyfriend isn't even deployed. okay sorry *end rant*
moving on.... I'm in love with this song
"Me Without You" by Love and Theft
Ohh
Like a thundercloud without a chance of rain
Like a stretch of sandy beach without the waves
It's like I'm spinning my wheels
Down a lonely interstate...
Me Without You
It's a picture perfect sky without a view
It's an empty seat at a table for two
It's having all the time in the world
And nothing to do...
Me Without You
I've been loving you so long
I'm a leaf lost in the wind
I want to be so strong
But I don't know how to begin
So I keep holding on
Cause I don't know what else to do
I try to be, but I'm not me
Without you
It's a beautiful song to be sung
But nowhere to sing
It's this beat up old guitar missing a string
It's me calling in the middle of the night
And it just rings
Me without you
I've been loving you so long
I'm a leaf lost in the wind
I want to be so strong
But I don't know how to begin
So I keep holding on
Cause I don't know what else to do
I try to be, but I'm not me
Without you
Baby, tonight I'm gonna light your favorite candles
And open a bottle of my favorite Spanish wine
Gonna listen to the song that we made love to the first time
It's all I can do
It's all I can do...
I've been loving you so long
I'm a leaf lost in the wind
I want to be so strong
But I don't know how to begin
So I keep holding on
Cause I don't know what else to do
I try to be, but I'm not me
Without you
I can try to be, but I'm not me without you.
Is this girl from the board???
ReplyDeletelol
No, thankfully! I might have said something by now!! lol
ReplyDeletehahaha! I love it!! Girls like that bug me too! I hope i was never one of them!
ReplyDeleteHaha I tried posting this yesterday but it was being too slow! Anyway, trying to again, if it comes out more grumpy, I don't mean for it too, I'm just exhausted:
ReplyDeleteFirst off, I've had to deal with this and almost be in the middle of situations where girls are like "omg, she ALWAYS talks about him." Haha the example I'm using, the girl was getting married in a few weeks, so I personally think countdowns and when she gets to talk to him to plan little details for the wedding is beyond acceptable. I told the other girls that if they didn't want to read it, to just hide her from the Newsfeed. It's THAT simple.
Secondly, although yes, both can get annoying, just like you said "but it's my blog so I can say what I want," they're thinking, "well this is my FB, so I can say what I want." And they're right :-p
Ok that was more with the first point. The other point is if I had to choose, I'd rather see the "yay I got another phone call" rather than the whining. Positives over negatives is ALWAYS easier to deal with!!!
Yes, I agree that people can say whatever they want on their own blog or facebook...i do it, but you still can't tell me you've never found so of it annoying and pathetic. I'm sure when she gets somewhat older she (they) will look back and think about how pathetic they looked.
ReplyDeleteAnd if they are getting married or on a deployment or something else that is long, brag! brag all you want....but to be literally depressed and emotional and down when you're freaking boyfriend is in the field is pathetic. Its not normal
Show me one normal person :)
ReplyDeleteYou know what I'm saying.....
