Re-Writes..."Teenage Confusion"

“i really don’t understand girls. the things they do sometimes baffles me. sometimes when i look at some couples at school, or i’ve just seen around, and i see how the mean treat their women, i wonder how the men could be that way. i wonder why women stay with men who don’t treat them right. i don’t understand why they remain with these losers. a woman should be treated like a queen, loved and adored. there are still men who believe this. but most women think all men are dogs. if these women would look a little harder or even give someone they already knew a chance, maybe mr. right would be right in front of them. someone who would treat them like a lady. someone who would care for them and love them. but most men like this aren’t given a chance. if you were a woman and your man wasn’t treating you right but another guy wanted to treat you better, why wouldn’t you give this person a chance? someone who only wanted to be with you, only you, and try to form a lasting, loving relationship together. forever. i thought women were supposed to be smarter than men. the answer doesn’t seem too hard for me. a man who would do anything for you, anything for your love or a man who doesn’t care if you’re there or not, if you’re happy, if you’re loved? do you even have to think about it? you shouldn’t. but that’s what makes me really not understand girls. i don’t know, i guess it’s because i’m young. maybe that’s why i don’t understand. maybe when i become older and the girls i know mature more, they might not so be quick to stay with their loser boyfriends. but then again, maybe they will and maybe i’ll never understand.”

sometime in '97, i don't remember the exact date.
