Girls Don’t like Boys, Girls like Cars

They’re the ones who are there when you are lover-less, the ones who will rush to you when a cuddle-buddy is needed. However, amidst all these I-got-your-back notions, there’s bound to be some sort of underlying desire or lust. Sure, a boy-girl friendship works in theory or fantasy, but you cannot ignore human instinct.

With guys, it’s clear to see how a simple friendship just isn’t plausible. If a male is involved with a female, there has to be a catch. This side is usually where the sex interferes and demolishes any hope for a friendship. Maybe he has hopes that the girl maybe, possibly, somehow has feelings for him. Or maybe he’s hoping she can introduce him to some of her friends who have more “assets,” but either way, there must be incentive for such a friendship to exist.

Girls possess more discreet, scandalous tactics. If there’s no possibility for a romance, then there are always other uses for the male counterpart. Girls can manipulate any hopeful thoughts into “letting” guys pay for food and chauffeuring. These poor guys are taken advantage of so easily.  But no need to worry, when scenarios like these bring out the worst parts of people, neither side is blameless.

The cruelest part about this is that there are innocent souls trapped within this vicious circle. Anticipating something more, these are the people who watch too many chick flicks and who believe in the goodness of humanity. Even human instincts to mate show no mercy for these poor saps.

Basically, two heterosexual beings of the opposite sex are unable to be “just friends.” When those hormones run their course, there’s nothing left to keep one teenager attached to another. This is why high school flings are incapable of lasting. After all, human beings are just another animal species genetically wired to procreate. It’s not our fault our hormones are always reminding us of our duty to Mother Nature.
