Dating Complaints, Can't Make Up Their Minds

I see the same dating complaints repeated over and over and over again in relationship advice columns, dating advice columns, tons of general magazines.  I am seeing tons of equivocal, vapid, empty reasons that these females decide they don't want to make a commitment.

"Oh I need to grow some more as a human being, oh the timing just wasn't right, ohh we were at different stages in our lives, ohh I need to go and find out who I am, ohh I need to find myself."  Middle-class white people love talking about "finding themselves."

And yet at the same time, these females agonize over every single little meager detail that they experienced on a date with a guy.  They pore over and obsess over every imaginable insignificant change in voice tone, or aa syllable drawn out longer than normally socially acceptable.  They analyze every single line of conversation, every offhand gesture for any perceived hidden meaning.  They will attach profundity to trivial crap that probably didn't mean anything.

I already grew weary of this crap back in high school. I find this thread of discussion to be, simply put, boring as hell.  Those girls may or may not have been having sex, but their dating complaints were always aggravating to listen to.

Now that we are in 2000 with the asinine, idiotic sex and the city TV show, the social climate has only gotten worse.  Because now they are adults.  This does not mean they are smarter or making better decisions.  It just means they adding sex to their bad decisions.  They are not necessarily the exact same girls, but they are the same demographic, so you get the idea.

If they are single, they are miserable and lonely, and they think of themselves as uncool losers that will never find love.  But Yet when they are in a dating relationship, all they do is complain about their boyfriend.  About how “he doesn't listen, ohh he's so selfish, oh he never pays attention to anything I say;” blah blah I don't even remember what else.  These are evidently, by the way, all the same females that spew crap about body confidence, about how they are strong capable women that don't need a man to define their sense of self-worth, etc.

I just stop listening within a very short while of the commencement of their spiel because it is so goddamn boring.  Not to mention predictable.  Hmm.  This might be why I don't have a whole lot of girl friends.  I don't have a lot of patience to listen to them.  It gets very irritating hearing the same crap regurgitated time and time again.  All these dating complaints are the same.
