thats cute. NOT.

i was thumbing through my notebooks of randomness tonight to find some funny quotes for our little side bar thing when i ran across the cutest thing id ever read. so pretty much every girl has a boy that theyre (not so) secretly in love with. and sometimes that boy says really sweet things even though all he's really doing is trying to lure you in with his magical words of lies that you believe until he rips your heart out and stomps on it and then leaves a nice juicy luugiee right on top for ya. how thoughtful. but anyways! i thought that tonight we should appreciate the good side of boys before we bash on them. soo..this is what mr. smooth talker said to me:

i like how modest you are. i like how you dont want to get too into it when you kiss. i like how you would rather talk than kiss. i like how beautiful you are. i like how you get that huge dimple when you smile. i love your smile. i like how you are always happy. i like how you know the church is true. i like how independent and responsible you are. i like your brown eyes. i like your lips too. i like how you don't take yourself too seriously. i like how smart you are. i like you katie.
*did you notice how he pointed out looks before brains? aka shallow.

wow. isn't it weird how i used to believe him. i fell for him. hard. it came to my attention today that its been almost a year. a WHOLE year for pete's sake. thats a long time. long enough for me to realize that he says the same thing to all his girls. he's the only boy that i regret. and thats a strong word. regret. its like hate- its strong. and if he forgot about me so easily, then BAM i forgot about him...matt who?

boys. boys. boys.

boys may be cute.
boys may be sexy.
boys may be sweet.
boys may be caring.
boys may be trustworthy.
BUT. that's only in movies with happy endings.
i think tonight at the one and only harvest dance we all got a taste of the real boys: rude, inconsiderate, disgusting, horny.
it ended with crying, comforted by group hugs and ice cream (at least it did for me.)
i realized tonight that i can't trust boys and that i should stop hoping and wishing that that one boy will finally figure out that i would do almost anything for him to be with me. because truth be told, it won't happen. not for me at least.
just remember girls, we have eachother. and even though i would do almost anything for that boy, i will do ANYTHING for my best friends.
i love you guys,
forever and always,
katie
p.s. I HATE BOYS. end of story.
