28 Days

Joshua entered my life on May 2nd, 2010. I politely excused him from it on May 30th, 2010.

I just wrote a long post chronicling the world's fastest unwise relationship. I erased it all and decided to just sum up the lessons I learned from it. There is no point in reliving bad choices and tainting his name beyond his own doing. I share my wisdom instead. Isn't that the purpose of the Boy Blog?

1. There are many boys in the world who are oversexed and under-relationshipped. No matter how certain you are that you could be his saving grace, it is not worth it.

2. Yes, everything your mother and sister and young women's leader said is true. If a boy gets angry with you because you will not have sex with him, he is not what you thought he was, because had you known he would do that, you probably would not have dated him.

3. Even the wisest of girls can fall into the clutches of bad relationships. For many, it lasts long. For me, it lasted exactly 28 days. I have always been one to live life on the fast track. The point it, keep your eyes peeled. No matter what you feel, Galileo's words are true: "I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us wth sense, reason, and intellect has intended us to forgo their use."

Be smart, ladies.
