7 Stages Of An Ugly Relationship

The human mind serves us with many things that separates and defines us. Its unique form gives us personality, perception and aptitude in scuffling with the vagaries of life which at times, transcends our abilities. However, there is always a greater mind than yours. Just like there is always a person with a greater and more interesting personality.

A personality that is appealing and attractive.

Personality is simply my biggest requirement of traits when in search for a good companion or girlfriend. A good personality accompanied by an amicable character are the 2 conjunctive traits which turn me on.

So, as the human mind determines the nature, it is the natural, intrinsic allure which brings us closer to the people we are attracted to until you finally come to a stop. That’s when you’ve found someone. That’s when you’re in a relationship.

Here I shall expound my theory of the typical awry relationship stages we go through which I personally believe are timelessly relevant. Ok got a little over confident there. But It came to me when I was about to doze off in the bus on the way to work with “Art Of Life” blasting in my ear. Here we go.


This is the 1st stage as we know it. In my personal belief I strongly stand by the fact that a girl who looks good, and presents herself well will be showered with compliments and pardoned more often whenever she makes trivial mistakes. This world is cruel. No one even consider substance at the 1st impression as by nature we are perceived through superficial appearance before anything else. So, when you see that CUTE girl from across the room, you’re attracted, your Infatuated.

Then you start to look for substance in the person, to see if the person’s traits are compatible with yours. When you finally engage in a conversation, you find that you grow to like this person by the minute. You like her outgoing character, you like it when she teases, you love it when she cracks witty jokes, ultimately, you develop an Affinity.

Now that you’ve confirmed your stand on liking her, you only seem to find more things that attract you till it sends a wave of excitement through your mind. And considering the fact that you haven’t known her as well through time, you appreciate the things you see as you go along and as I mentioned earlier, superficiality always comes as the 1st strike! You enjoy being with her. Simply because of the fact that she turns you on every time. Don’t be alarmed at the “tent” you are pitching. You are simply In Lust.



You proceed by spending more time with her. You are hit with a kaleidoscope of emotions. Every time you meet her you have butterflies in your stomach. It now doesn’t matter if she develops pimples or dresses slovenly. You like her the way she is. You now don’t have a hint of an idea on why you feel so deeply for her. You simply do. You just want to satisfy your feeling of withdrawal when she is away by meeting her. Oh boy….your In Love *applause*



Your efforts were efficacious in having her at the palm of your hand. Or so you thought. She starts to change her mind like most women. She starts telling you things like “baby I want some time alone to clear things up in my head” She gives you excuses that whichever way it sounds, will seem most incongruous and outrageous to you. Though you allow her a little space for tranquility through solitude, you don’t feel right. You feel uneasy pacing across the room sweating copiously. At this point, you become In Need.


At this point, things begin to veer into a dire calamity. Anger and frustration begins to surge and you are now infuriated by her actions and the fact that she didn’t even take you feelings into consideration. After all the things you’ve done? After all the love you’ve given? After all the time, commitment and dedication you are under the impression that she should feel Indebt to you.

And finally, the weeks of torment you spend by your bedside waiting for the phone to ring comes to an end when she calls you! But what she told you on the phone sends your heart into palpitations. You can’t breathe. She wants to end it. Your simply too crazy for her to handle. Your petulant and temperamental nature sends chills down her spine. She wants you to do every girl in town a favour and marry a minah Indonesia. Your body feels sapped of energy. You can’t stop thinking about her. You want her but she’s gone away. You’ve ruined your chance. Now you sit in the corner of the room rocking to and fro singing “ring around the rosey”. You have officially gone INSANE!



Well isn’t love a beautiful thing? Again I remind you not to judge but to appreciate the allegorical aspect of my theories. I am not a know it all. I just call them how I see them. This is based on what I’ve seen. It sucks when it happens to you.

But don’t you just love the entertainment you get from watching others go through it together with you? ;-)


The best things in life are only enjoyable when shared.
