Hey, do we have to call people who are in situations that we're not in, and do not understand, stupid? Come on, people. Aren't we all adults?

Anyway, I think a lot of women, especially in their 20s, really feel as if they have to "work it out". So many of us don't want to be seen as a failure in any realm, especially the romantic realm. So, we stay in relationships that are less than perfect, where the balance of power is not equal, just because we don't want to fail at ANYTHING.

Also, so many people JUST DON'T WANT TO BE ALONE. I've had one friend say that she'd rather be with her jacka-- boyfriend than without, because she gets so lonely.

I'm lucky enough not to have gotten into situations like this, but so many of my female friends have...and worse. So, I get frustrated, but I know that it's hardly a rare problem.
