The Common Denominator

As I previously stated, two of my friends were talking. I say "were" bec they're no longer talking, but more on that situation later. For the sake of saving face and also make the story easier to tell Im going to refer to him as, Blue, and her as, Sheesh. Got it? Good.


Anyway, Blue happened to just recently get out if a two year relationship and it made him skeptical and hesitant to start anything with Sheesh. Now about two years ago, Sheesh and Blue we're friends of the intimate nature and just happened to drift apart.

Sheesh has been in some fucked up relationships as well. In her case, most of the fuck ups were caused by her own insatiable indecisiveness...ill just leave it at that.

Sheesh, while she is a tad bit jaded, is a little more receptive to the idea of something more than Blue was. He said to her that he felt that he was broken and sucked at relationships and all this other depressing shit. So Sheesh asked me, "Why is he being such a Debbie Downer? I like him, he's cool, but as soon as it seems like we might be getting closer he'll say something negative about himself".

I thought about it for a min, then I had to relate it back to myself. Every relationship, whether serious or simply physical, I analyze why the relationship ended, what I've done, what I should have done differently. If its something that Ive truly done wrong ill make a conscience effort to NOT repeat it in the future. I think about it like this; the common denominator in every failed relationship you've ever been in is who? You. You chose that person; you liked, possibly even loved that person. You were there from start to finish, I feel it's natural to "blame" yourself.

Long story short, in the end Blue wasn't shit either.
