Brand New

Is it a coincidence that everytime I study Social Psychology, I break up? Studying about attraction and mating preference in the evolutionary perspective somehow affirms what I ask for in a man is truly not so ridiculous.

If I remember clearly from my 12pm lecture, men and women seek for 3 broad things when looking for a mate (excuse the scientific language). Warmth/Trustworthiness; Attractiveness; Status/Resource. Both parties will search for a person that are warm/caring/honest/loyal but men place greater importance on attractiveness while women thinks resources are more important.

I would have to vouch for that because I need a man that I can respect and that if I raise my voice he won't go hide in a corner. Someone that can stand up and say "you don't talk to me like this because I'm not your servant" but I need a touch of warmth/affection in him where he will go "but I still love you. Just be my gf but not my boss or my mother". Have the balls to say that and I will respect you.

After 2 boyfriends and nearly 6 years being in a relationship in total, I feel like I needed a breather. Being 21/22, isn't this the age to flirt around and enjoy singlehood. I'll do just that =) I need to live without the stress of where is this going? How much do you love me? Will we be together forever? If you fail now it will affect our future.. Just enjoy my youth..until maybe I'm 23/24 or a new Mr. Right comes along.. ;)
