You Get What You Give

My last entry was about some females being unaware that the type of guys they are attracting is due to the messages they're putting out to the world. Perhaps no one better exemplifies this right now than Courtney from this season's The Bachelor.

Courtney has quickly become the antithesis of "America's sweetheart" and "the girl next door" as we watch her lure Ben (the poor sucker) with her body and her whimsical personality. Courtney strategically only shows her nasty ways to the other girls, one of whom dubbed her the "black widow spider". Talk show host, Ellen, even expressed to Ben how upset she was to see Ben be deceived by Courtney. We've seen Courtney, a model, cry about how she has been treated so poorly in the past by men who don't appreciate her for long. Whether it's skinny-dipping or removing her top, the girl uses sex appeal like it's her job and then wonders why men don't fully appreciate her and treat her with respect. Because you get what you give and what she gives off is nothing more than a cheap sexual thrill.

It's sadly clear that this is a girl with deeply rooted issues with men and with her self-image. I truly hope that she seeks therapy so that she can overcome her issues with herself and men.

Take Away Message: Take a look in the mirror. The issues you experience with others can't always be due to the other person. Once in a while, chances are the issue is you.
