I’ve had some convos lately regarding relationships, and what guys want and what girls want, and I have devised a relationship hierarchy…according to me. Some of you may not agree with this, but you’re wrong. I’m right. You should know better, and never question me again. So, here it goes…
The Relationship Hierarchy according to Little Duchess
In order from least significance to greater significance, we kick off with the…
One Night Stand
The ONS, if you will, is self explanatory. We’ve all had one, and if you say you haven’t, you’re lying. We all do it for different reasons most of which involve mass quantites of alcohol and a stranger you met at a bar. They can be just what the doctor ordered, sex without strings. You don’t have to deal with the, “I’ll call you later.”, “Let’s get together sometime.” When you’re done, YOU”RE DONE.
The F@#k Buddy
Once again, we’ve all had a FB, usually they’re an acquaintance that you’ve had a mutual attraction with or a friend. It’s a step up from a ONS, because it can last anywhere from a couple days to a couple months depending on the type of FB you are. FB’s are not to be confused with dating, as it often can be. When you’re a FB, you aren’t required to do the dinner-and-a-movie-typical-date thing. Just sex. Period. No cuddling, hand holding, long conversations, or sleepovers. Not to be confused with…
Dating
Same as FB, but with the dinner, conversations, cuddling, hand holding. Only with many people, because exclusivity has not been established. However, you’re always coy about dating others, because you don’t want the person that you’re dating at that moment to know that he/she isn’t the only one. It’s fine line between FB, Dating, and…..
Relationship
Basically, all of the Dating stuff only with exclusivity. You look at the person you’re with, and think to yourself, “You’re mine. I’m tatooing my name on your forehead, so everyone knows you’re mine.” Which is just a thought, and not meant to come to fruition. And last, but not least, the dreaded…
Marriage
What almost everyone shoots for in life. To meet that one person that you can spend the rest of your life with, have beautiful children with, grow old with, have a mortgage with, stop having sex with, contemplate having an affair on, fight over how to raise the kids with, ohhhh, the list goes on….To some, marriage is the answer to all life’s problems, to others it’s the cause of all life’s problems. Me, you ask? Well, I do not believe in marriage, for me, but I do believe in divorce.
Well, these are just the random thoughts that float through my head when I don’t have a whole to do at work but daydream.
As always, I make my disclaimer: Don’t take everything I say too seriously, afterall, I’m a girl, and I change my mind often.
Yours truly…well, at least truly, I have a problem with commitment, remember?
