(I wrote this last week but forgot to post it..so here you go)
Alright, so apparently couples do not know the difference between being cute and just plain awkward. Therefore, such people's ignorance requires me to inform them. This is my opinion of course, but I'm sure that by now you realize that stating opinions is the point of having a blog.. so yes. Here it goes.
I write this to you on behalf of the many singles and non-awkward couples who have been awkwardly impacted by your interesting form of affection for one another. Unfortunately, while you may be unsuspecting and oblivious to your awkward ways, everyone else around you is fully aware. Believe me, there is no way to escape the awareness.
The first point I would like to make is this: it is not required that you constantly are touching each other in order to enjoy each others company. While this may come as a surprise to you, it is possible to form your relationship based on your friendship with each other rather than your physical attraction to them. There is nothing wrong in particular with hand-holding and what not, but the line is crossed when you are unable to walk anywhere unless the other person is grasping your hand. You do not automatically become a granite statue when your significant other releases your hand, but on the contrary are still able to function as an individual human being.
In addition to that, please learn from your cute-couple friends who understand the friendship aspect of their relationship. Friendships consist of two individuals who enjoy being with each other, not two people who constantly depend on each other and cannot spend time apart. Please note the difference. Your cute-couple friends have gotten this down, so I suggest you take notes from them.
I would also like to state a Seabird concert is not the place, nor the time to smooch and dance awkwardly as everyone else is trying to enjoy the music. In fact, no public place is the place to smooch and dance awkwardly, especially in an environment where things like that aren't even allowed.. AKA a private Christian college. Everyone stares not because they think you are cute, but because you are obnoxious and because the discomfort which people feel due to your unusual caressing is slightly disturbing. It's times like those which make me proud of RA's in their free distribution of reps.. There's a time for reps, and I would consider that to be a very appropriate time. REP: Why? Inconsiderately making everyone else at a concert feel uncomfortable and awkward. (At least we all had a good laugh, right?)
Now for a little message to all the cute-couples:
Thank you. Thank you for not making people uncomfortable, and thank you for being considerate of those around you. Also, thank you for giving photographers precious photo opportunities. I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say that we appreciate it. Please teach our awkward-couple friends not to scar everyone's eyes, but to rather bless everyone's eyes with joy..
Thank you.
