I feel like a horrible person.
I hate couples. The idea of trying to talk to one whilst their face is on someone elses, never seeing them cause they prioritise, and having to listen to them waffle about how perfect the other person is, does my head in.
At the same time, I adore couples. I'm a total old romantic, where romance is possible, I find it beautiful. My secret love is chickflicks, because theres always love, no matter how cheesey or predictable.. I know how happy it makes people, and how its all worth it, for anything.
But OH MY LORD how much I hate listening to couples. When you're trying to have a civillised conversation and they just have to tell you how amazing the other is. For a while its cute. Its really sweet even. But after you've heard the same compliment for someone else about five times, you begin to get irritated by a) Hearing about it, and b) Their apparent lack of imagination.
But I would never break up or wish for the break up of various couples. I might be grumpy, but thats all it is. I would never wish for any less happiness for any of my friends.
So I'm sorry that things end up that way.
It was so much less complicated when we were small.
