Annoying Facebook Chain Status Post Subtext Time!
Once again, I am greeted with yet another chain status post that I simply refuse to duplicate. Why? Let’s find out, shall we?
“Find a guy who calls you beautiful instead of hot,”
One, if it starts with “find a guy”, “the man I’m waiting for”, or “guys take notice” color me immediately repulsed. Two, I actually don’t mind if the person I’m dating calls me “hot”. Personal preference, y’all.
“who calls you back when you hang up on him,”
If I hang up on you it means “let me cool the hell down before I say something regrettable”. It’s not a passive technique to see if you really “love” me or not by trying to call back.
who will lie under the stars and listen to your heartbeat, or will stay awake just to watch you sleep.
NO.
Wait for the man who kisses your forehead.
Please don’t. I have a thing about people kissing and/or touching parts of my face that aren’t my lips or cheeks.
One who is constantly reminding you of how much he cares and how lucky his is …to have you….
If a man tells me how “lucky his is…” we probably won’t be dating for very long.
The one who turns to his friends and says, ‘that’s her.’”
That’s right! I am unequivocally me. But seriously, my issue here is that people love differently, like differently, and prefer differently. Crap like this plays into the notion that love, and the quality of love, is a standard recipe that to which all must ascribe in order to be “worthy”. It also carries a slight undertone of “wait for a man to treat you like the delicate princess you really should be”.
