“Sweet Guys Finish Last..(?)”
Well today was once more a pretty disturbing day.. Firstly Manuel; he avoided me last night and I heard that his best friend claims he had sex with me – something which is a lie. So maybe that’s the reason. On the other hand, today I found out that Manuel is friends with Shin, my previous crush as well as my ex allegedly best friend (We were hardly even friends so that’s why he is “allegedly”). Nevertheless me and Shin were and still are constantly at odds and that has caused several “mishappenings” in the past. I know it’s just a wild guessing but since Manuel knows him and know too that both me and Shin are from the same place, then most probably he has asked him about me. And I think we all know what that means. I mean what “frenemy’ says a good word about his rival? None.
My last guess is that Manuel realised he doesn’t like me after all, that I’m too much, too wild for him in the end. Really I hope – and wish – that’s not the case ’cause I don’t think I will be able to take this again. You know, falling for a guy who doesn’t want me.
Anyhow this entry ain’t about Manuel though. It’s about Taylor (“Tails”). One of the guys I went out with last night. He isn’t really my friend truth be told. I met him during the summer, once or twice, at my hometown. We started speaking once I came in C. and that was just because it happens to have some common acquaintances.
Well he’s good-looking. Definitely. Slim and tall with dark complexion (not chocolate dark though) and expressive eyes. Fun and out-going too. But I think that the worst is that he is sweet and nice. To me. And oh how I hate that.
On Saturday night he gave me some drinks (he gets them for free in Army Academy for a reason) and practically found me cigarettes so I could smoke. I know that’s not so nice and sweet but it is for me. People who usually give me drinks expect me to get laid with them too. As when they pretty much do anything for me. But he didn’t. And even if he did, it was in a very subtle way. Today he was speaking to me on FB, trying to calm me down with all the stuff that went on last night and being like “Oh my god! You must be joking! Would you like to go out or something so you could take your mind off it..?” when I told him about the cab man who tried to “rape” me while I was returning home with a totally wasted Sven. (Well he didn’t exactly try to rape me, but I’m sure that what he did is pretty much sexual harassment. And okay I was a bit distraught by all that but okay I guess I can manage).
And I think that it was even more sweet of him, you know to care for me in that way. But honestly; I – HATE – IT. Literally. I always laugh when there are those friends of mine (girls mostly) nagging about where the fuck sweet and nice guys have been. Well truth be told they don’t want them as I don’t too. But they usually fail to realise it. Because they get that nice and caring and loving guy but they get bored with him. They get bored without all those drama-queen-scenes, without having him being jealous of everybody and without having to nag about the way he treats them. It’s true; Sweet guys finish last. And we treat them like nobodies in the end. We ignore them and everything.
A shame, I know. But it’s true. When we are young most of us don’t want a sweet guy but a “bad boy”. The one who will put us through “hell” and everything. Well I ain’t exactly like that. But I suck at relationship-things. For real. And that’s why I don’t want Tails or anyone being sweet to me. ‘Cause I’ll just dump them just an hour later. And I don’t wanna do that. We need those guys, those “gentlemen”. We need them sooner or later so we can have somebody to rely on.
I know I’m being foolish. But I just can’t help it. I’m sure that I’ll just end up hurting him. After all it’s true; I ruin everything I touch.
But today I wonder.. Is it possibly for him to be worth it..? Worth to give it a chance maybe..? But on the other hand I’m stuck with Manuel. He knows it already. Am I really worth his heart and its breaking..? Nah, I doubt it..
Just for fun though I post this song too. Emilie Autumn is the singer and it’s called “Gentlemen aren’t nice”. Another cynical masterpiece of hers. And she says exactly this thing I pointed out. We treat the “gentlemen” like shit while we chase like dogs the “bad boys”.
Enjoy
