Men vs. Dogweed

Tonight, after a night out carousing (we’re currently on a girlfrends getaway), my best friend related a story about how, once upon a time, as she was young, she would love to pick dogweeds and put them in her hair.

“They looked so pretty…but later I realized, they smelled really bad.”

I wonder if that may be symbolic of the mistakes ALL of us keep on making in our relationships…going for the guys that are wrong for us, and are bad for us, but yet, we are attracted to anyway.

Why do we insist on doing this to ourselves???

I’m sad. Sad for me, sad for everyone in a situation where they know they need to search for something better, and yet keep on getting hung up on the same bad choices, time and again.
