Why Twilight "like" relationships don't work
We're coming to a close of the Twilight franchise. (thank you, God!) It's been a long and painful 4 years that I am happy to see it end. Girls around the country were swept off their feet when Twilight was born and thus began the craze known as Twihards. Also began the debate, Team Edward and Team Jacob. Pssh, Team Tebow! ;) All the girls wanted to be Bella, they wanted their boyfriends to be Edward and they desperately wanted their relationship to be like the Twilight relationship. Check please! I don't understand how any girl would want that type of relationship, it's not even healthy!
I would go crazy if I dated someone like Edward Cullen. He is one of the worst type of guys you could ever go for. Girls need to wake up and get back to reality and realize that the Twilight relationship is totally abusive. We have Bella, a pasty pale, timid, clumsy ditz who can't think for herself and has to rely on her boyfriend. That brings us to Edward. Pasty pale, ego manic who thinks the world revolves around him. He's controlling, clingy and obsessive. He also watches you while you sleep, how is that not rapey?! You don't want to be in that type of relationship, it's not worth it.
The relationship like the Twilight one never works. The girl either gets smart and leaves the guy or he gets bored and goes out and tries to find some other girl he'll have a better chance at controlling. Here's my favorite one, the girl will get so depressed in this messed up relationship that she goes crazy and kills herself or her boyfriend then she appears on the T.v. show "Snapped." Ahhh! Young love. Is that what you want out of life? To be known as the girl who went crazy and killed her boyfriend? I don't know about you but I rather be single and all alone instead of being in a messed up, dysfunctional relationship. Don't even try to argue with me saying the whole "If you love someone you never want to let them go or be away from them" thing cause that is totally different.
Loving someone so much that you never want to let them go is not the same as being clingy and obsessive to the point of suffocating your so called lover. I mentioned before that I would love to be in a relationship with someone and have that connection with that special person but I'm not going to jeopardize my self esteem to have a relationship. I already did that with my first boyfriend last year and look how well that turned out. It left me cold, bitter and with hopes he gets hit by a bus. Jack ass! Come on girls, you can find someone a lot better then the trendy popular guy that has every one's attention. The reason why I stayed with my ex boyfriend and tried to go back to him after all he did to me was because I felt like this was my last chance for a relationship. I thought if I didn't stay with him or go back to him I was going to stay single forever.
I thought I was in love with him so I didn't want to end things with him. I liked the way I felt when I was with him so I didn't want to let that go. I haven't been that type of girl who went out on all these dates with guys and guys usually didn't go for girls like me so when I finally found someone who gave me that type of attention and wanted to be with me, I instantly thought take it and don't let it go. I was so blinded by the thought of finally having a boyfriend and being in "love" that I devoted all of my time to him and I ignored all the red flags and the way he treated me. He cheated on me during the whole relationship and stole money from me, never took me out on an actual date and I paid for everything and I drove every where and he never gave me money for gas. He didn't want to have pictures taken of me and him and he didn't want to announce our relationship on facebook.
Even though those are little things but I thought if he isn't willing to do the little things then what makes me think he's going to be willing to do the big things. He wasn't and he didn't. He was only using me for money and sex, Ha! The jokes on him, he may of gotten my money but he didn't get sex from me. :D I don't care who you are, you're not getting any of that until you put a ring on my finger. Just like Twilight relationships, it didn't work out after 4 years of knowing him. I will never degrade myself like that ever again just for the sake of being in a relationship and I rather be single then put myself through that. If Edward and Bella were real people their relationship wouldn't last. One of them is going to end up killing the other one. When I think of relationships, the one that comes to mind is the type of relationship everyone should go for. The relationship of Johnny Dingle and Missy McCloud from My Boyfriend's Back. The line that Missy says in the movie makes me want that type of relationship.
"He died for me, he came back from the dead for me, he ate someone for me!" - Missy McCloud.
That is the type of love everyone should go for and it's the type of love I want and I won't stop till I get it. If it doesn't happen, it doesn't happen but I'm going to do whatever I can to try to make it happen. The moral of this post is if you settle for a "Twilight relationship" then prepare to either be shipped off to a Mental Institution or Jail. Happy dating!!
