Hello there.
I know what you're thinking. "Why on earth does a manipulative bitch have a blog? Why would I ever want to listen to something a bitch says?"
It's a simple answer, really. There's a reason that bitches rule the world, and that answer is this: because we're good at what we do. Usually. It's like when someone gets angry at an animal because they've outsmarted them. "Stupid *insert animal here*" Now, that animal is not really stupid. It's more intelligent than you are. So really, stop calling it names. The reason people don't like bitches (and the reason they should pay attention to them) is because they get things done. At least, we manipulative ones do. Regular, run of the mill bitches are a horse of a different color.
Now, the real reason I've called you all here is this: I hate hypocrisy. You are not allowed to preach to me about what you hate and how terrible your life has been and then inflict the same pain on me. I'll give you a nice example!
Friend Zone. It's an ugly word that no one wants to be on the receiving end of. The givers use it to pacify people pursuing them, and the pursuers simply abhor and fear it. Seriously. It's the stuff of nightmares. Eternal pining, watching your "friend" go through relationship after relationship (The particular winners are the ones where they go through BAD relationship after BAD relationship. You know FOR A FACT that you could be a better boyfriend/girlfriend to them, and they simply continue to ignore you because you are a "friend.") Cruel and unusual punishment, it is. I'm sure when given a choice, any sane person would rather be stretched upon the rack as their vertebrae slowly separate than condemned to the everlasting hell that is friend zone.
Logically, anyone who has been subjected to it multiple times, anyone who has felt its horrible breath upon their neck, the stench of festered hopes long dead and emaciated souls starving for reciprocation settling over them as permanent as that cigar smoke from that nasty bar you accidentally walked by on your way home, they would never want to put anyone else in that position again. For the most part, I don't speak the word "Friend Zone" when rejecting potential suitors. Let's face it. Not everyone that asks you out is going to get to dating territory. To each their own must apply. But being selfish and expecting to get everything you want from the relationship, yet not giving the other person everything is unfair. If they want it, they are legitimately insane and you can feel free to escort them to the sanatorium of their choice. Finding yourself in that situation after years/months/weeks of friendship is one thing, but being forcibly put there while you want nothing to do with it is another.
I'm not going to lie. I've used it before. It goes with the territory of being a bitch, particularly a manipulative one. I twist situations and relationships to my advantage, usually ignoring the pain and suffering I place others in. (Really, what self respecting bitch doesn't?) But I swear to you, anonymous nothingness that is you people out there in cyberspace (Note to self: No one is actually reading this, that's the only reason you are comfortable putting ANY of this up here) I am going to change. Perhaps that's what this blog is really about. I've got to stop being a manipulative bitch, because it's bad for me and it's bad for those around me (or so I've been told.) This will not be over quickly. You will not enjoy this...or at least I won't.
As a receiver end of the multiple "friend zone" situations and to a much more recent GIVER of friend zone, it can sometimes in a once-in-a-blue-moon feeling for me feel oh so gratifying to be the one dishing it out.
ReplyDeleteBut, if there was no usage of the friend zone, how will one such find "the right one" without knocking the pursuers out of your way?
but in the end doesn't that just come full circle to one being manipulative?
