Just Because…
by Joanna
Just because I spread my legs for you And send you dirty pictures You do not have the right to treat me like a whore Just because I don't make demands For you to take me out on dates You do not have the right to disrespect me Just because you get what you want About 90% of the time You do not have the right to jerk me around I am still a woman And I can indeed speak Just because sometimes I like another's company When I feel so moved You do not have the right to use me Just because I take my shirt off And expose my breasts You do not have the right to exploit me Just because you don't get what you want About 10% of the time You do not have the right to ignore me I am still a person And I can indeed cry out Just because I do not ask questions About where you've been or who was in your bed You do not have the right to abuse your privileges Just because I don't make a big deal About the way you have behaved You do not have the right to see me as disposable Just because I pretend it's ok While I am hurt inside You do not have the right to make me feel small I am still a human being And I can indeed ROAR Oh, what's that you say? You are uncomfortable? Well... Tough shit.

This sounds like a friends-with-benefits thing to me, though, the girl look like she developed feeling for the guy. Unfortunately, unless the girl says that stuff to him the guy will continue to do all the things that we don’t want him to do. And if we tell him, he’ll be like “I don’t wanna be in a relationship”. Thats why I being someone’s bootycall is never a good idea, unless you wanna be hurt and feel worthless.
Intuitive thoughts. This situation basically did happened that way, although I read the poem onstage at a show. He was there, and he definitely knew it was about him. I said these things after the fact, and honestly more for myself, and any other women in his future….
Wow, that’s very brave of you. I know how that must have felt. I personally have been in that situation, and that’s why I wish to never repeat it. I think in our time and society, every girl/woman has to go through that situation herself. It sure felt like sweet hell lol but mostly hell. The only thing we can do is look back and be glad it happened because it made us wiser and stronger. And I personally hope that you’re doing okay.
Thank you for sharing this. It means a lot to know that I am not alone. I can completely relate to the sweet hell you speak of…I am doing very well now. š This happened last year, and really changed my perspective on intimate relationships. I hope that you are healing from your experience as well.
Yes. You’re like so not alone. My best friend is going thru the same experience right now :(.
Thanks for your concern, I already healed. š
Also, yes. Wiser and stronger indeed!
