According to Loveawake dating site  - Hotel heiress Paris Hilton was once left blushing in embarassment when a date realized she’d been pretending to talk on her mobile phone to avoid chatting to him. The socialite decided the date wasn’t going well almost immediately, so she pretended to answer a phone call from her mom in a bid to leave, but she was caught out when her mobile phone actually started to ring.

She reveals, “I was out with this guy and after five minutes I knew he was totally not my type. So I pretended my mom was on the phone and I needed to go home urgently. But while I was pretending to be on the phone to her, it started ringing. So he knew I wasn’t really speaking to her!”

How horrifying! 

I once had a friend who snuck off to the little girls room - phone me on her cell phone and asked that I phone her at a set time to bail her out.

As much as I felt bad in doing it, I felt bad for her being on a bad Craigslist date and resorting to such childish tactics to get out of it rather than feeling adult enough to be able to just state her position and leave.

How would you respond to a friend making such a request of you?

Even worse, how do you think you would handle a situation like that of Paris Hilton’s date?

Oh well, at least he earned the bragging rights - and it’s not like there’s not hundreds of other men who’ve been dumped by Paris that can’t sympathize.

To Fight or Not to Fight

I just got back from a dinner at a Craigslist friend’s house. These Craigslist girls have been my friends since I was in highschool and we’ve stayed in touch over the years — over 10 years, in fact.

The conversation revolved around marriage, kids, engagements, and break ups. Of course, since I’m the only single left in the group, in a new relationship at that, I got grilled with questions regarding certain issues about the relationship, the fights, in particular.

All three have the same opinion on how they think individuals from Craigslist should view fights in relationships. They say it’s quite normal and, somewhat, good for it. It keeps everything “spicy” and interesting. It helps you talk about issues that can help the relationship grow.

Personally, I find fighting a little stressful and tiring. I’m often left disconcerted and uninspired. I usually resort to sleeping, thinking that it will lessen the negative feeling left by the fight.

However, after that conversation, I came out feeling a bit encouraged because, at least, I can view fights in a different light. I felt re-affirmed that communicating through fights help solve problems and does make the relationship stronger. But I also felt that these thoughts shouldn’t be used to justify “picking fights” for the heck of it, know what I mean?

I reckon we can actually learn from the phrase “picking fights”. Instead of taking it in the negative sense, we should take it as picking the kind of fights we’d engage in with our respective partners or to make a conscious decision “to fight or not to fight.”

Any thoughts on the matter?
