Most of my articles are attacks at college men, I'm fully aware.. but this time I thought I'd take a completely different approach and just attach this generation in general. Females and males are both equally responsible for this dating age of playing games with other peoples emotions and leading nowhere.
I've personally been a victim as well as a game player and being on either end can really suck. Being into someone who doesn't want you back the way you want them and making you believe that there's an end in sight in the near future when there's really not is a terrible feeling. Now playing a game with someone's heart and making them believe that you like them as more than a friend or just using them is also not okay.
This is the culture that this generation has started where most of us don't take dating seriously and just play with each other's emotions. There have been many times where I've played with a guys emotions without even intentionally meaning to do it and then feeling awful about it later. That in mind, there has also been plenty of guys who have played games with me, some leaving me sad and others didn't even surprise me.
It's a cycle that's sadly never-ending in today's society. You want someone you can't have but there's always going to be someone that wants you and can't have you. It's a cycle that's so hard to break and emotions always get toyed with.
Not every single relationship or person falls into this category, don't get me wrong. There's a lot of real relationships that occur in college and last a long time that let me know that there is hope for our society.
