One of my roommates was telling me about her boyfriend- she thinks he’s boring. The truth is that the guy isn’t boring, he’s just not very social. He likes to keep to himself and he’s just not used to going to parties or going out the whole day. It’s hard for him because she likes to go out, party and just have fun. In other words, she likes variety. She has talked to the guy about it, but I guess it’s hard for him to step out of his shell. She was telling me she didn’t know what to do, because she doesn’t want to just stay home and watch movies.

She says she doesn’t want to sound like a bitch, but that she wants him to be more outgoing. She says that she sometimes gets frustrated and wants to make him do something. I was telling her that maybe it’s hard for him to step out of the habits he has. At least he’s trying…. She said that she understands that he is putting an effort and that she realizes the fact that the only reason he is doing that is because he likes her. 

She kept going on and on about how she was happy the guy actually likes her and how he’s doing things for her, because he genuinely cares. 

I’ve had a similar conversation with her. Only, I was the one saying I felt bad that the guy didn’t do things for me because he didn’t care. Lol I remember telling her I felt like shit because I knew he didn’t want to try or put time or effort into a relationship. 

I guess she realized the conversation was kinda hurtful and tried changing the subject. Although she wanted to change the subject, she kept going on about how her boyfriend really cared for her and that she was starting to like him even more. Yeah… I guess I would be less bitter if I had someone, but for now, I think couples are yucky and shouldn’t show off in public…..
