Girl overwhelmed by a game.

Monday 23rd February 2009.

So we're all playing a big game together. Admit it or not, that is your choice. However your participation isn't up for negotiation.
Every day we join in this fight for who will come out with the guy/ girl they want. The most amusing part of this game is the most it occurs is between two people who actually like each other. Why is that the case?
Why do we spend so much time playing with each other's emotions, creating obstacles and drama, when really everything is plain and simple? Do we do it because we fear the rejection of it all going wrong, that we would have to blame it on ourselves and not someone else? Or possibly just for the fun of the game?
Whatever our motives may be I'm still very unsure of our continuous participation along this course.
I know I won't be the first to start a conversation every time, I know I feel hurt when there's only one 'x' and I know it makes me smile when someone pays particular attention to me more than usual. But I'm still not sure why.
The only conclusion I can possibly come up with is that we're all born into one big game, that we play from a very young age. So, does marriage mean you're too old to play that game anymore? Or is it just a new round?
