"Where have all the good men gone...?"

I hate men. No offence guys, but please just let me have my little rant.

As of late I have been watching a lot of movies and I've noticed a growing trend. Men are jerks who "change" at some point throughout the film. Or who never actually change, the girl just settles because obviously he's the closest thing to "The One" that they believe they will ever find. Or, more likely than not, he's some perfect, fantastic, UNREALISTIC man.

They always keep the girl in the dark, wondering "Does he like me, like me, or does he just want to be friends?" The shear frustration of this, among all of their other quirks, causes these women, who otherwise would be strong and fabulous to do a complete one-eighty and do some completely stupid things all because of some man. No, correction, guy, boy, child!

Why is it that we women get so worked up because of some stupid guy? We see it in movies. We read it in books. We swear up and down that we will NEVER let something like that happen to us, and yet we allow ourselves to be victims of this very thing time and time again. WHY? Why do we allow ourselves to be so stupid?

I think that people need to stop writing these unrealistic love stories. Why doesn't anyone write anything real? Ugh...
