Well maybe some women wouldn't be interested in you for doing that "sort of thing." You don't think we pay attention to who is and who isn't relationship material? I've got one guy who's been stuck on me since I slept with him 7 years ago. At the time I couldn't take him seriously though, and saw his promiscuity and cheating on a previous girlfriend as a red flag. I'd probably give him a chance now though, but we don't live in the same state, so it wouldn't make sense. My point is that your double standard is sickening. Why do you think it's okay to judge women for having casual sex, but you imply it's okay for guys? Note to all girls out there: stay away from guys with double standards. |

hahahaha wow this comment is a breath of fresh air. But girls do the same. What's worse is dragging the guy along for awhile, and using him for emotional support, social status, and whatever else in addition to sex, until you can find someone better, like maybe his best friend. I mean I'm not saying I've done that exactly, but still. Or what about the guy you hide from your friends because you're embarrassed of him but the sex is good? That happens. Or what about the exes you hook up with, for convenience, even though you don't want to be in a relationship? I hate all the girls making this a gender issue. it really doesn't have to be. if you have a one night stand, you need to realize, you're just getting laid, and separate that from any expectation of developing a relationship. Obviously it's not good to sleep around too much, but that's a health issue not a moral issue, at least not for me. It's not fair to say girls are supposed to have more of a moral problem with sleeping around than guys. I've had a guy I dated refuse to have sex with me because he wasn't in love with me. |

| Wow, I thought I hated this song, but I just noticed at the end, she reverses the point of view. She's saying we really are all looking for relationships, but we end up casually hooking up before ever having to win each other over. That's what this is about. The very end of it implies the same lyrics sung by the guy she is with, essentially. This isn't about guys not caring and girls getting used. Geez. She is "using" the guy just as much as he's "using" her. She's just saying she wants a more meaningful relationship, but she keeps settling for casual sex, because relationships take time and effort and commitment. She's not putting in the effort either. She doesn't really care about this guy. She just met him, and she wakes up and she's like oh shit why did I just sleep with someone I don't care about again? It's likely she wants out of there just as fast as he does. Plus, who knows, maybe he really likes her and just has to go to work. I hate the part where she assumes she can read his mind. Still, she's expressing disappointment with herself, not with the guy. The problem is with the way this song is written - the main message that comes across to the listener is "what ever happened to a boyfriend?" which ends up sounding a lot like she is complaining about the men in her life. I do have a problem with that part, and really with anyone who echos that sentiment, but I think the main message of the song can be interpreted differently. This, essentially, is just a commentary on the vacuity of casual sex. However, I do hate how it really sounds like she is complaining. | |
