My Gramma's my Facebook Friend

My Gramma responded to my status on Facebook. It read: "FFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK".

Gramma-

Was that a good or a bad Fword?

What happened?

Me-

bad F word. Gramma, why do men have to be so confusing????!!!!!!!!

Gramma-

I wish I knew.

One thing; be very slow to accept your view of any one of them until you've had plenty of time to confirm it. Remember, hormones skew your perceptions sometimes. And hormones have no brains.

Worse; men have hormones, too. So sometimes a good man does really, really awful things.

Me-

Well, when does it all start working out? I'm sick of being either infatuated or heart-broken. I wish I was only capable of reciprocated love at the right time in our lives....and I wish if it wasn't going to work out it could just be instataneous. Not confusing....Why can't I just fast forward to the end just to take a look so that there wont be any surprises???? And why do I have to be so stupid sometimes?

Thanks for the advice. and for caring.

Gramma-

It would be nice if everything was like in the storybooks; easy and quick. But it isn't. Learning to live is just plain hard.

But then, what would you rather have, instant coffee, or Starbucks?

One thing; try to hold back on giving power to your feelings about a guy until he has proved himself as a friend. It may save you some pain.

And no, you are not stupid. Stupid is doing the same thing year after year, and expecting the result to be different next time. Refusing to learn from mistakes.

I don't see you doing that.

That said, I know how this hurts. I am sorry. {{{{More hugs.}}}}

I'm thinking my Gramma's pretty smart; pretty perceptive; she's wise. What she doesn't know is that I'm not so much hurt as I am feeling kinda' stupid and slightly frustrated..Still, Grammas words are encouraging and nice to hear.

If you're talking drip coffee, I'd rather have instant than starbucks though. But truthfully, I really want a real, Italian cappuccino. Nobody makes a cappuccino like in Italy.
