Welcome To Svetlana

Girls [like this] should come with a disclaimer. Walk with me...

"I'm a really strong person, except when it comes to relationships." -- Svetlana; Real World, Key West.

...Except when it comes to relationships?! You're a woman; what else is there?
Did anyone out there in blog land catch last night's episode of The Real[ly big breasted Russian's] World? This was priceless. I'm telling you -- you can't put a price on it.

This chick is a piece of work. (Both physically and emotionally -- I prefer one over the other, but I'm not gonna tell you which) It should [at this point] go without saying that she's co-dependent, irrational, attention-hungry, confused, and silly (in a sad-clown sort of way) because she's A)a woman, B)19 years old, and C) a woman. But, part of me [and my anatomy] feels like she's taking it to a new level. In her quest for attention; she has a jewel of a boyfriend back home -- 3 year relationship. If you watched then you know what I'm talking about, and if you didn't then I've already lost you.

She goes on and on and on (see above -- "attention hungry") telling everyone about her shitty boyfriend and all the bad things about him etc, etc, etc. I'm even starting to listen, because some of it seemed pretty legitimate. I obviously don't know him personally [yet] but I assume the guy is probably a complete jerkoff, only putting up with her shit for the same reason(s) I would. Then her confessional goes something like this, (get ready for a sobering display of honesty and insight... no, really) "I realize now that I made him out to be someone that he wasn't. I just wanted so badly for someone to love me and for someone to care about me that I just made him that person in my mind even though he's not." (That's not gonna be 100% accurate, but as drunk as I was I think that it's pretty close. I'm not even sure I actually watched the Real World last night, alright...) It doesn't stop there. This chick is [either] on truth serum and/or "suffering" from a major estrogen defeciency. She's talking to John (the guy in the house, she just met a week ago, who she wants to be with as soon as she decides to break up with her boyfriend of 3 years) and she flat out tells him she can't/won't be alone [single, for you guys out there] because it's... WAIT FOR IT... "depressing". This happens to be the day after she tells the house she would be single, but she can't because it would break HIS heart into pieces. and she just can't do that to him. Suspect? Sure -- But I'm blinded by the sudden 180 in this girl. That bitch flip-flopped quicker than... whatever

So I'm thinking, "wow, that's a really brave, not to mention accurate, admission -- what'd you do with Svetlana?" I actually bought into it for a nano-second -- I thought maybe she was gonna get her shit together, even for a couple of days, and we could fall in love -- 2 minutes later I felt like such an idiot! The next scene is a shot of her on the phone with this guy [now my hero] and her doing a narrative voice-over saying, "when you have something like Martin [the boy back home] and I have, you can't just throw it away. You have to hang onto it and try to make it work."

What? How did I not see this coming? It's so standard. I must be slipping...

She's a really strong person... except when it comes to relationships. *There's* your disclaimer...

Question: is this any different than 90% of women? Besides the attractive part, i mean...otherwise this seems par for the course. You nailed it with the first line - girls SHOULD come with a disclaimer, and thanks to the blog, they now do
