Relationships are scary and complicated ONLY when you start thinking of your partner as some kind of adversary.\u00a0<\/p>\n

You know how to stop being scared of relationships? Remember that it\u2019s got a goddamn buddy system *built in*. That\u2019s all a relationship IS: \u201cLet\u2019s approach life with the buddy system.\u201d<\/p>\n

Check on your buddy. Make sure your buddy doesn\u2019t forget their lunch box on the schoolbus. Hold hands with your buddy so you don\u2019t get lost. If your buddy wants to look at the monkey cage, look at the goddamn monkey cage with them. If you are the one looking at the monkey cage, ask your buddy what they want to do next, and when they want to feed the giraffe, help them find a quarter for the little food dispenser. Be a good buddy, and if your buddy isn\u2019t a good one too, tell the teacher and ask for a new one.<\/p>\n

This isn\u2019t fucking rocket science<\/i>, people.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

This kind of woke my ass up because of the amount of times I\u2019ve had a buddy who didn\u2019t check on me, didn\u2019t want me to check on them, but didn\u2019t want me to leave.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
