Love?

Article by: stephaniedawn | August 21, 2008 - 10:00 pm |

    I know, you're probably thinking this is going to be a lame article with a title like "Love". I'll try my best to keep your attention.

    Have you ever noticed how our society tells us that it's NOT ok to be single. We always wonder why most of us are on this constant search to find "the love of our life". LOVE is forced into our minds on a daily basis. For instance, those Eharmony commercials really make you think that you shouldn't be alone, ever. They make you think it's not ok to be single. I've noticed this recently because I find myself judging every guy I see on the street or on the bus, anywhere I am. I look at them and think "could he be good enough to marry?" Then I wonder why I'm even thinking about that in the first place. Of course, it dawns on me that it's society. Well this is all I could think of right now. Any thoughts?

Grade: B (6 people have graded this article.)

Not just society, its all around.

Its not just society that is pushing the whole " time to get married/love" deal, its the people around you, the people that you work with, the people that you call your friends, even the people that you call your own family. I think its the opposite way around, society is just a tool whether it be commercials, billboards, cards, events, holidays which is supporting what others that are close to you want. Ever notice when your best friend is together with someone new and they give you that.." lets set u up" with all his cute buddies deal? or when your mother has a friend who has a son about your age and "just knows" u two would be perfect for each other? Even some single people think its "wrong" to be single. Those I feel bad for.

When did it become so wrong for people to just stay single and enjoy their freedom? Even our most closet friends, family, co-workers, who are in a two or even single themselves, push us to find something that maybe..we werent meant to find?
