My cat just spent the past half hour curled up on the couch next to me watching Sex and the City. It was really sweet and nice having her curled up in my lap purring and licking my hand. Then, when she was done she bit my hand and took off. Much like most of my past relationships. If you can call them that.
I love my cat, and the species in general. However, when i tell people i love cats i always finish with, " i love them cause they're assholes. Women always talk about how "guys suck" and "men are assholes." Yet, we love them still.
It's called nature when a cat only wants you when they want you. It's something supposedly ingrained in their DNA that lets them only love you when it's convenient to them. So what is men's excuse? If men and women are from the same species why is it they can seem to only care when they want to? All too often do guys seem to be "all in" for the first 30 minutes. Then, when they're done they can just go like it's no big deal.
I'm not trying to sound like some desperate girl with a keyboard and internet access. So please, don't read me that way. It is just beyond my comprehension as to why it's so easy for some people to only love when it's convenient for them.
For that half an hour with my sweet kitten i felt how much she loved me. Then i felt that sharp bite to let me know that our time was over. I was then left alone on the couch to be ignored till tonight when she was looking for a comfy bed to sleep in. She'll love me again, but only when she feels like it.
Despite all the frustration, lonliness, and emotional unavailability of assholes i still love them. Men and cats alike.
