Addicted to Drama

Everyone likes a bit of drama in their lives, and without some excitement, life gets dull, boring and predictable. Unfortunately I think all too often girls get addicted to the drama of sketchy relationships. We`ve all (or almost all) been there - it seems that things are either amazingly wonderful or horribly disastrous with our boy du jour...never in the middle.
You may be asking why we do this to ourselves. Some reasons may include:
  • You are totally incompatible but trying to make it work because you`re attracted to each other
  • You two don`t have a lot in common or even much fun together, so the drama helps build excitement and something to focus on
  • The constant worrying about your BF provides endless hours of chat material to be shared with your closest (25) friends
  • The knowledge that you`re dating a scumbag allows you to instantly bond with most other girls you meet
  • Make-up sex is better than regular sex

Although the drama can be exciting, your friends are probably tired of hearing the same whining and complaining that they`ve been listening to for 10+ years. You`re not working on improving the important things in life when you`re spending hours crying, worrying, and yelling about past fights. In my opinion, total drama relationships went out of style with jumpsuits (the first time around...).

  1. I almost peed my pants when I read this. Mainly because I am actually addicted to drama and everything you said is true. My favourite points are about the chatting and bonding. HAHA. Since you do know that jumpsuits are back in style does that mean drama came back along with it?

  2. Sadly, that is hilarious. I have so many friends that love drama... and they never admit it! And it always seems to rub off on those around that one Drama Queen. Ack!
