Title the book.

While buying a pack of Double Stuf Oreos today, I heard a group of girls talking about their hook-ups and one referred to her guy as her "boyfriend-ish."



"We kind of are but we're kind of not," she told her friends.



I stopped. Looked. Laughed. Continued on with Oreos.



In my few years of experience with the opposite sex (better known as male), I've learned that if you "kind of are but kind of not," you most likely aren't.



If you're new to Free Love, let me explain that I have an affinity for bashing idiotic women. Not because I'm above them. No, no, no. See, I, too, can be an idiotic woman so I feel like it's OK to do.



And, well, some women are just plain dumb, stupid, slow, and all of the above. Easy target. And, I don't like to stretch my brain much on these posts.



Back to boyfriend-ish. The ironic thing about this whole term is that it's giving a title to something that doesn't even exist. I'm so confused. He may be your boyfriend-ish, but I can guarantee that if he's sitting down with his guys talking, you are not his "girlfriend-ish." You are "oh, yea, that chick I (insert sexual action in past tense here), the other night."



Not everyone or every person needs a title. Some things are better left unsaid. But, if you're going to put a title on something, at least have it be a real one that people have heard of and won't make total strangers laugh at you and distract them from the insane cost of Double Stuf Oreos at convenience shops.



Girlfriend and boyfriend are serious words. Don't add ish to them. Then, you're just full of ish.



Love freely,

tY
