It has definitely been a while since I've had a chance to blog - but life goes on, right?! Any way, so I was watching the show How I Met Your Mother, which let me say that if you haven't seen it you have to - its fun, funny and the characters are very well developed; I mean they really reflect today's late 20's early 30's metro-guy/gal. With that said, it is important that I mention that today's blog is not necessarily about the show, but about a comment Robin said. The title of the show was "Hooked" - nop, no Texas reference here. The term "hooked" has to do with ... Bueller, anyone... anyone... relationships.
So you are officially hooked when you think you are dating someone, but you really aren't. Still not clear yet, well it is when you here the following quotes:
You say "I love you"
They say ""I like spending time with you"
OR the classical one...
They say "I have a boyfriend/girlfriend, but I really like you (_fill in adjective here_)... I want for us to be together, but just not yet".
Now that you have the setup of this particular episode, and while the gang is explaining to Ted what is like to be hooked, Robin made the following statement (which really caught my attention): "... its like this Ted, our girl parts are like spiderwebs, we sometimes get stuff we don't want".
I have to be honest, when I heard that I thought it was really funny at first, but five seconds later I started to really think about what that statement meant. Have you given it some thought?
First, I thought it was really interesting that a good looking woman said that, meaning that not even they are saved from jerks. Two, how hard it must be to be a woman - I mean, we are visual beings (both men and women) but thinking about Freud and how sexual we are, like I said, poor women. Thirdly, Spiderwebs not only attract, but catch insects - are men insects? is this how women are able to attract men?
What do you think?
