The problem is you call them and invite them over but they tell you to go away and that they hate you. You plead and ask them again, saying how you don’t like us being like this with each other. Once more you are told to leave them alone, they hate you and want no more to do with you. But i love you and want you back so badly you say. This time not even a reply, just a dead phone line.
You climb on top of a roof and wonder if life is ever that simple before dropping to your death.
Im sure this is the lyrics of a song… thought it was the Streets Dry Your Eyes Mate… realise it isnt…. but is it from a song Wake if so which one?
Tryin’ to pull her close out of bare desperation
Put my arms around her tryin’ to change what she’s sayin’
Pull my head level with hers so she might engage in
Look into her eyes to make her listen again
I’m not gonna feckin’, just feckin’ leave it all now
‘Cause you said it’d be forever and that was your vow
And you’re gonna let our things simply crash and fall down
You’re well out of order now, this is well out of town
She pulls away, my arms are tightly clamped round her waist
Gently pushes me back and she looks at me straight
Turns around so she’s now got her back to my face
Takes one step forward, looks back, and then walks awayBreaks your heart listening to this….Dry your eyes mate :(

That’s enough to put anyone off their breakfast…… sorry :D

I forgot to add, I rarely wear skirts, if I do it’s a business suit. I never wear dresses. I don’t tumble out of nightclubs drunk because I don’t go to them. I have a few drinks in the pub and can say although I won’t be sober, I won’t be totally inebriated either at the end of the evening.
Should I therefore go around with the smug belief, thanks to some on this thread and that poster, that I am less likely to get raped?
Do you feel smug when you check the windows are shut, set the burglar alarm and lock the door before you leave home? It won’t necessarily prevent you being burgled but it’s a precaution you take.
Do you feel smug when you park your car on a well-lit and busy main road rather than that quiet little side road, make sure valuables are out of sight and lock your car? It won’t necessarily prevent your car being broken into or stolen but it’s a precaution you take.
And if you take precautions for your own personal safety, there is still no guarantee that you won’t be mugged or raped but you take them anyway…don’t you?
I’ll still be going out with my short skirts (a little above the knee, I’m not young enough for the short short skirts!) and I’ll still wear the tops that give a hint of cleavage…why shouldn’t I? But I won’t get so drunk that I can’t even focus on a hand in front of my face and stand no chance of spotting the danger signs of a predator watching me or trying to separate me from my friends…or so drunk that by the time I realise something is happening it’s too late and my reactions are so dulled that I can’t do anything about it. Smug? No. Taking precautions that minimise the risk? Yes.
Yes more should be done to address the perpetrator (not always male), I think all women would agree with that. That doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t be warning the young women too…if we don’t, if we brush the effects of alcohol under the carpet, if we pretend that a young woman scantily clad and so drunk that she can’t see the signs and/or defend herself isn’t seen by the perpetrator as the sign of an easy victim, what will we then say to her when she is attacked, like the woman in the video? It’s not her fault there are twisted people out there, it’s not her fault that she became a victim, but it is our fault if we don’t open her eyes to the dangers…it’s the least we can do.
Well said jen jen.. I totally agree =D>
