Things Men Think They Know, Things Women Thought They Knew

"We wear the mask that grins and lies, It hides our cheeks and shades our eyes,-- This debt we pay to human guile; With torn and bleeding hearts we smile, And mouth with myriad subtleties." -Paul Laurence Dunbar I think what happens quite often in and out of relationships is that we become so comfortable with the facades that we create for others that we actually end up assuming the qualities of the person we created. When that happens we lose sight of whats really is true and lose a sense of ourselves which is why so many relationships go down the whole. We can only live a lie for so long and in the society that we live in many times when we meet a person for the first time we are really meeting their representative. When the true them eventually is exposed its a completely different person that the one we grew to be fond of and ish goes down the toilet. What I think the moral of all of this is... just be yourself from jump. (btw... this might be a lil fragmented, i was writing like 2 words every 5 min cus i was at work lol, let me know if it makes sense lol).
