Love Style Russian Roulette.


I watched Knocked Up last night, and I noticed that there is a certain game of Russian Roulette women play with their lovers.

The game of, what will you do to prove you love me. The game where in the end almost all women are likely to accidentally blow off their heads….and still enjoy the luxury of thinking, jeez how did that happen?

It’s like a test we put you fellows through. I’ve heard of many Russian roulette stories from my girl friends, the kind where they demand the guy throw out his entire selection of porn, to prove that she is infact the only one he fantasizes about, the kind where she demands he tells her that he loves her, the kind where he should give up his regular boys night outs, just this once for her….the list is endless.

I think most women are aware that these demands are ridiculous and unreasonable.

But women use them anyway, and when a relationship is about to die, the game of Russian Roulette kicks up a notch. It becomes the means for gathering evidence that the helps justify your case. You wouldn’t throw out that dirty magazine, therefore you don’t care about me….

I think Lover’s Russian Roulette, is the primary way women go about sabotaging relationships….because the alternative of actually giving it a shot and risking getting hurt the old fashioned way is somehow much more scarier…it’s the lack of control.

Heck if anyone’s going to be incharge of screwing all this up, its going to be me!

Ahhh... 'cause I remember one of my exes insisting that I not play football this one Friday night so we could catch an early matinee movie. I never understood her reasoning because it seemed to me we could go to the movie any other day or even any time before or after football, whereas football could ONLY be played at that specific time.

Why not balance it out with tests of power that we are sure to ace, like sleeping in or teaming up with your best friend's sister?

I'll watch out for this game and end it quick.

Thanks,

Foolish women. Self destruct your own relationships, then call men pigs. Thank God I haven't experienced any serious roulette plays.

not that I endorse Russian Roulette
but how else will she know how he feels?!
He's not saying anything and she doesn't want a nasty surprise when it turns out he's not as committed as she thought. Yeesh.
How how how can she trust him?

Great posts. I've seen it hundreds of times where the girl tries to force the guy to love her and in the end her actions are just pushing him away further.

Why can't more girls understand it like you do? ;)

I think there are times that a man or woman puts their mate before their friends/fam. Just not completely.

In most relationships, there will be changes and adjustments. It would be unrealistic to think otherwise. If you want to have the same schedule activities when you were mateless then don't get in a relationship.

And the reverse happens with men too, I have many of men not want their mates to hang with their single girlfriends.

Relationship are about negotiating and compromise.
