Well Stricken is back and thinking back on some previous thoughts, posts, comments, and threads among other things. I've devised this little post to help with the infinite wisdom that is Valhallan


I'm going to give a REAL scenario that happened to my friend whom I'll call Blake for the time being. Pay attention this is important things.


Blake found this girl whom I'll call Heather, He liked her a lot and talked to me about her. He casually asked, do you think I should ask her out? I responded with the ever so common, I don't care, I personally don't like her do what ever you want.

Any way he did indeed ask this girl out and everything looked great between them. He got kisses, the whole girlfriend thing (not fit for me), and even a few props from other friends of ours.

Well about 3 weeks into this ever so wonderful relationship, she throws the Dreadful 3 word sentence at him. I LOVE YOU. He responded without thinking (my condolences to his man hood) with a simple I love you too.

BOOM trapped in this. A week later, not much too be seen from this aside from one MAJOR article of importance. The party for our friend who was turning 16, girls girls girls (my kind of party), any way Heather didn't want Blake to go. She wanted him to go to her (get this) Cousin's Friend's SISTER'S party. Blake told her he promised months previous that he would go and this is where she threw her card at him.
Heather: I thought you loved me? You must not fucking care for me at all considering you just wanna go hang out with your friends!

Now me sitting next to them outside waiting on her dumb shit self to get picked up from school so that Blake and I can ride over to our friend Robbie's for the party which would last until about 3 a.m.

I get a little edgy and I hope he doesn't say what I think he's about too say. Alas, he does infact say it.
Blake: I love you baby! Trust me I do I promise I won't ever make you sad I'll do whatever you want. Sorry Stricken (no they don't really call me that, but my name is not of importance) I can't go to the party.

Stricken: Blake what the fuck? You're really gonna miss a party to go to her cousin's sister's whatever party? You've got to be fucking kidding me.

She then tells me that he promised he'd go with her and that I should just go fuck off. Then he stands up for her and tells me not to be making fun of her like that.

Bam now he's whipped as shit. From that day to NOW she still basically carries him around on a leash. She commands him, she owns him because he gave up his dignity for a sentence. Now they spend ALL their time arguing and I get the "I am gonna break up with her I swear" and he never does. He comes to my house to play some Super Smash Bros. (any of the 3) and I swear she has it timed perfectly. His cell phone goes off and bam their talking no time to play the game. Which generally pisses me off, playing against level 9 computers is boring.

Every time he tell's me he's gonna break up with her, I don't hold my breath. And as per usual she promises she'll be better and he forgives her.

The icing on the cake is this. I had him a job lined up at a restaurant that I do part time in. (cooking food is good) It's fancy but pays well. They offered him 12.50 an hour to clean dishes, and make salads. (A pretty sweet deal for 4-5 hour nights) She gets upset that he'll just use it as a way to not talk to her, and he ends up "not taking" the job and tells me that his mom doesn't want him too. (which is bullshit because I discussed it with his mom and she said he needed a job which initially was why i got it in the first place.)


All of that summarizes too one main core factor.

Women these days use "I Love You" as a way to manipulating your every move. They want your security and when they do, they forget every thing but their own personal needs. They don't care what you want, you love them, so you have to do what they need. They'll make promises to keep their little dog with them on their leash and never keep promises made.

That is a BIG reason you never love your girlfriend.

There is a lot of reasons,
1. A girl who wants that word will cling to you and do what ever it takes to try and make you say it. Not saying it makes her want it all the more, and you'll come out with a smile and you still never have to say it.
2. Not saying that fucking sentence makes it easier if you ever decide that you want to break up with her. She doesn't have you trapped in the vortex that is "love"
3. Love doesn't exist in teenagers, it's a formality that we have inherited from years of stupidity.
4. What if you end up liking some one more? Then you feel guilty because you "love" your girlfriend.

The list is endless.

Remember, the quickest way to get a girl, is to never love her. Even in marriage.

The fault is with your friend. True, "I love you" is the most powerful sentence in the English language, but it is not a shackle. Your friend let himself be whipped. It's that simple. About the party, he could have said "And baby, you said you loved me. If you did you'd understand I made this obligation months ago and these are friend's I've known for a long time and they're very important to me. If you love me, you'll understand this." But he didn't. He's a pussy whipped bitch. Guys let themselves be controlled far too often, and trust me, it will only get worse.

Oh I know, I know it is his fault. I don't change a thing. Just letting the many people here that muttering the sentence is plain and simple stupidity.

As for my friend, may he one day learn from his mistake

I hate girls who are like this. I had a girlfriend who was clingy as hell only to find her posting pictures of one of her freinds naked on her blog, and also the fact that she fell in love with her step brother. >_< Its because of clingy girls like this that guys turn gay. Luckily for me I found another girl that lets me be myself and doesn't control me. Eventually your friend will get sick of it, but not for a long time. Hopefully he opens his eyes to see the truth.

Striken, just because the words 'i love you' get so often mis-used doesn't mean people should write love off all together.
the words 'i hate you' get mis-used everyday but they're still valid when a person really means them.

People over use I hate you and guess what? When they say it, the other person generally gets mad and uses that as a form to get mad at the other no?

The words "I Love You" have been a trap for years. Just because you refuse to see that doesn't mean it's not true.

I generally say that when a girl tells me she loves me she's lying. Much better approach.

I'm not refusing to see that sometimes the words ''I Love You'', are a trap.
I'm just saying; don't write love off just because of that. (:
