I hate the media

[youcomebeforeyo]

I usually have a friend I talk to about all this shit but she's at work for another three hours so I will succumb to being an emo *** on the internet and bitch.

I'm going through a break up which is probably the biggest of my life so far, I guess you would say she's the 'first true love' or whatever.

But anyway I hate the way that society and the media portrays relationships as so important and easy. It seems were conditioned into thinking we need someone else and there's no way to break that cycle. The truth is most 20 year olds and even 30 year olds aren't mature enough to deal with a proper relationship especially an 18 year old like myself.

The way it's all ment to work out, but the harsh realities against you are never painted suck.

Anyway my rant is over, I have another three hours of fun internet to bitch about love with.

I'm sorry for you. How long was the relationship and why did it end?

Ouch, sorry man. Just be prepared, every morning when you wake up, it's going to feel like a punch in the face...for at least a few weeks. And I'm not saying that against you or anything, I'm going through the same shit. 2 1/2 years down the drain overnight, and I'm still having trouble...the breakup happened just over a month ago. Just do your best to stay busy, distract yourself, do whatever you have to to keep yourself from thinking about the relationship. It'll get easier.

i don't understand... you're moaning cos society says people shouldn't be alone, but you're moaning because you're alone?

shame you broke up, sucks i know... but it isn't anything to do with the media.
relationship breakups hurt regardless of the emphasis placed on them by the media

I dunno, I always have seen media as a promoter of an anti-commitment sentiment. Maybe you just see things how you want...

I guess by media I mean Hollywood, I don't blame it for the break up but I do wonder if subconciously it's been pounded into my head by every Hollywood movie i've ever seen I need a relationship to be happy, that said i'm probably delving too deep into this.

It's 6:20am local time, fucking horendous sleep, 5 hours if that. But I guess I was expecting this.

Relationship was only 5 months but far different too any in my life. The most serious by far.. and long distance. Happened by complete accident when I was away for work, the distance has just compounded to make things harder and I guess the break up harder because I can't just go and see her. It seems when it comes down to it, it broke up because i'm insecure and need constant reassurance and she's apathetic and shows little in the way of affection. Bound that with distance and it just gets messy. I know in time I will move on but all those initial break up thoughts are running through my head. The pictures of her with someone else happy, the thoughts of no girl being able to compare etc.

It's arse how sleep in a way is the best cure for all this and the girl takes your ability to sleep away. I guess I have to be fortunate, a friend of mine broke up with his girlfriend of 2 and a half years recentely and she died only a week after the break up, I can't imagine that.

Rant over, thanks guys :)
