casual

Dear barnaby

I have a few little questions:

1. Do u consider horoscope as a sufficient indicator of personality in general sense?

2. Is it true that when a guy decides to take a break, he prob meant a break-up?

3. Do u think that women are capable of taking a monogamous relationship CASUAL, as some guys do? By which I meant, guys seem to be able to engage in career-achiving activities while women tend to be emotional and sentimental hence easily get committed into relationship even tho it started out as CASUAL?

Thank you, barnaby

Hey X–>o

In answer to your questions:

1. I see horoscopes as a sufficient indicator of fruit loops trying to make money out of people’s hopes, paranoia and desperation to find a meaning to their lives.

2. When a guy says he wants to take a break, he means “I want to sleep with other people, see if there is anything out there better than you, and if not – come back to you.”. If during that time you happen to meet someone yourself,  then he will claim that the break did not mean you could be with anyone else. Sorry, that’s just the way we work. I think the words for it are – hypocritical, jealous and selfish. We’re good at those.

3. I think there are always exceptions to the rule, but in general casual relationships are for those who aren’t really that bothered about the person they are in a casual relationship with. I’d say this is the same for men and women, although I think it’s fair to say that men, in the most part, can have sex with a woman without getting emotionally involved, whereas women tend to need some level of emotional involvement either in the first place, or will feel some after sharing their most intimate moments with someone. I say “in the most part”, because of course this is no hard or fast rule, but I think is true of most. (Cue emails from independent women at one with their sexual strength everywhere)

Cheers,

barnaby
