"It's Complicated"
The Facebook is taking over college campuses. If Google ever buys the Facebook, the world will come to an end. Its a nice site, all of the little features are nice. However there's one thing that's really stupid: "Its Complicated". So you have a bunch of options for your relationship status. Single, In a Relationship, Married etc. For whatever reason, the Facebook team decided to add complication to the matter.
People, there's nothing complicated about it: You're either in a relationship or not! A relationship is a commitment to another person. Its not the level of commitment as marriage, but a commitment nonetheless. If you aren't committed to another person, you aren't in a relationship! How hard is that to understand? Some might say "Well we have an on and off relationship." That makes absolutely no sense. It can't be a commitment if its on and off. If you're "committed" today, and then uncommitted the next, then committed... etc. etc. etc., THERE IS NO COMMITMENT. If you're in love with the person, it doesn't matter. If there is no commitment between the two people, then its not a relationship. If I'm in love with Halle Berry, and she doesn't want to be with me (which she doesn't), THEN ITS NOT A RELATIONSHIP. I won't say "Its complicated". Don't make an issue harder than it has to be with all this terminology.
Its complicated... please.
Anyway, I have to get back to work. Just wanted to vent at the silliness of what I see sometimes.
BTW, this wasn't the post I had in mind for the other day, just something I chose to write about since I saw it today. That post may never get written again, I talked with someone about it, and I don't feel like writing about it now. It had something to do with Corporate America, GPA and shallow women. No really, there is a connection. However, you will have to figure it out on your own... for now...
