People make no sense

azuriteI have long been a believer than men are nearly impossible to understand, despite their innate simplicity compared to women. But in dealing with other girls, I have come to the conclusion that I would rather deal with more men daily and be confused by their simplicity than a woman's complexity.
Of whom do I speak of? Well, short of naming names, let's just say that I'm never complimenting someone ever again. Someone always takes it the wrong way. Case in point: my friend's feeling a bit depressed. Like a good friend, I reply to his post and compliment him-- who doesn't enjoy a little ego stroking every now and then?
Now his ex girlfriend completely takes what I say the wrong way! She doesn't bitch at me, per se, but she does seem to have an angry, selfish, possessive undertone underneath her words. Yet I do not respond to her, because HE asked me to. I respect him that much, and then some. He's that dear of a friend to me.
She asks me not to call "her man" (possessive much!?) hot, because that's "her job." Okay, so I understand the breakup situation-- it's one all too familiar to me. Guy breaks up with Girl to avoid later heartache when Girl moves away. Guy and Girl both plan on attending separate colleges, but when they see each other (assuming they haven't gotten into any other relationships; they swore off long-term dating anyway) they're "friends with benefits." Then, when they get out of college, they'll get married. AUGH! How can high schoolers think like this?!
Don't get me wrong, I'm not pissed that they're "engaged" or whatnot-- and simply because I respect my friend, I won't get into a bitch fight with her. I'm trying to remain calm here. But when other girls treat a guy like some kind of toy-- like some kind of possession, warping their mind... it pisses me off. Moreso when that guy is a friend of mine.
Now, one of my other friends is pointing out that they seem to have (had) a pretty tight relationship, and the breakup wasn't THAT long ago. Girl would be pretty crushed, thinking that maybe another girl was making the moves on her dear, beloved Guy. However she sees it. Girl supposedly doesn't bitch at people, and is really sweet, etc. but she has hurt my feelings by making me look like the bad girl, causing all this angst, and just from my POV, totally warping her "fiancee's" mind.
Gah. I hate continuing icky thoughts like this. So I respect my friend and I'll keep my mouth shut on his LJ. I won't talk to her. But I'm done with my little rant.
In other good news, I'm working (or trying to work) on my Inuyasha "doujinfic" based off of Clara's "School Daze," and it's called "Dream a Dream." I think Part 1 is already up on FFnet, if not, I'll have to upload that soon... I have many parts to write! ^_^ I still want to work on DWIs and such... ooh ooh, and plus I thought of the perfect birthday present for Will! NYAHAHAH!
