Your Pretty Woman..!


I have been advised by a friend to start getting personal on my blog and I decided to take the advice. So if this post bores you with personal details you don't give a **** about then you can blame my friend.

The other day I was pondering on the criteria upon which this friend of mine chooses his dates because sometimes I never really understand his choices.. At All although I claim to know him so well. That thought caught up in my head I turned on the T.V. and "pretty woman" was on. I love this movie but I never quite understood why is it that Edward loved Viviane. I thought it's too dreamy and maybe that’s why I loved it.

But something caught my attention this time; something "Julia" said commenting about his lawyer's wife she said she is ice cold. And you can tell that all the women surrounding Edward were the same. Refined, great looking, very neat and clean cut but they look lifeless. On the other hand you can see Viviane with big red hair and her huge smile, loud voice, spontaneity and just full of life.

"Are these you friends?" said Viviane, "I spend time with them, yes." Said Edward

"No wonder"
"No wonder what?"
"No wonder you came looking for me"


I agree she may not have been the right woman for him in any way. He has not been socialized to end up with someone like her, his community would never accept her and she would never fit in..its true. But maybe there's something wrong with his community not with her. Maybe she shouldn't fit in to begin with. Maybe or I am almost certain that what he loved is her difference.

Some people suck the life out of you with their cold, void stare. They can't give what they don't even have. And others just give life to everything around them sometimes with just their off beat attitude. And Edward craved life just like I am sure my friend is. He dates exceptionally clean cut girls who _at least to me_ look like plastic dolls, I constantly doubt they have blood running through their veins. They are very nice girls who are just lifeless to me.

It seems like its either you go for the right woman or for your pretty woman who is probably not right for you. What Edward did is go for his pretty woman what my friend has been doing is try constantly to make the right woman his pretty woman which he constantly brdo fails miserably in. Well good luck to you on that but personally I don’t see how you can make that happen although I know you can make a lot of things happen.

"I am going to treat you so nice baby that you will never want to let me go."
"Viviane, I will let you go!"

Well..did he?!
Find your own pretty woman.
