12.20.2015 - Narcissism

(You have been warned, this will be a rant.) 

I had a friend tell me today that this guy didn’t feel comfortable taking me to an event because he felt that he would be leading me on. That sounds like a virtuous, noble act but I see it in a different light.

I think it’s pretty telling of your narcissism when you assume someone is already in love with you and will be hurt if you invite them to something and have it mean nothing. To believe you are in the sole position of controlling where a platonic relationship goes is pretty presumptuous. That isn’t attractive at all. When did I ever give you a reason to think that I would care about whether we went somewhere as friends or not? Unfortunately for your ego, I do not like you and after learning about how self-absorbed you are, I don’t think I even like you as a friend. 

The issue with these people is that their douchebag mentality and belief that being an asshole will get them laid…

..Hasn’t been disproved enough for them to see the reality. Regardless of how much these people love themselves, girls (and guys) still ignore all the bullshit and fawn over them - perpetuating their twisted beliefs. Because of the people that are blinded by shallow reasoning, these assholes get away with it and will continue to get away with it. This is why you get many girls (and guys) who regret their one-night stands with these douchebags and become the ‘crazy, needy bitches’ society has stereotyped. 

Granted, this is completely these narcissists’ fault. But as the rest of the population, we have to remember not to forego our own values and fall privy to their games. We cannot let them keep winning and getting away with this shit. And we cannot give society a reason to label women (and men) as stupid, crazy, and needy when it isn’t even their faults.   

I will not be ‘led on’, you dickwad. I don’t like people who are only into themselves. 

They say nice guys finish last, but that’s some unjust, misogynistic bullshit. 

Take a fucking seat.
