My B-side

Mates of State

I’ve lost all hope in BYU heads. They walk around campus, fake smiling into each other’s eyes. PUH-Lease. I want to red rover right through their death grip handholds. You might think I’m bitter, or lonely? No. I’m mad at them for settling. It’s like these people are so (I’m talking 3 week courtships for some) anxious to get to the temple they don’t care who they are kneeling across from. (If you don’t believe me just look around at all of the mismatched couples on campus.)

So, I used to couple-watch in the airport. While waiting for a flight I’d pick a couple and analyze their chemistry. After thorough scrutinization I would either dub them soul mates or settlers. I know the theory of a soul mate is less realistic than the existence of Santa Claus, but every once in awhile I get this feeling that the world may, in certain moments, exist solely to bring two individuals crazy love... such a delicate balance. I have yet to witness this so called crazy-love on campus.

And has anyone noticed the parent-like kiss BYU heads pass?? Honestly, if my husband was going to be stuck in class for 5 hours I’d give up a hecka lot more than a peck to hold him over. 5 hours is tough!! Stop pecking, you aren’t birds.

I’m not trying to thump the idea of being married in college. Honestly, I think it’s the greatest suggestion ever. But I wonder if those living the idea think it so grand? They don’t act like it, and it’s giving me little to look forward to.

Where’s the passion kids!?! Maybe they save it all for Wymount, who knows?! Urban Legend: Paul witnessed a woah-kiss in front of the MOA. Crazy art kids, good for them!!

Call me an advocate for P.D.A. but if you’re going to be together for an eternity at least act like you enjoy each other. And set the example for underclassmen! We are the future BYU heads, afterall.

Ya know what, don’t listen to me. I have Relationship A.D.D. making me a very uncredible source.
