walk away
be kind
reply, but don’t initiate
let go with love
you have learned what you needed and you know this
remember your role may not be about you
a third act remains
I promise
walk away
be kind

What men mean when they talk about their “crazy” ex-girlfriend is often that she was someone who cried a lot, or texted too often, or had an eating disorder, or wanted too much/too little sex, or generally felt anything beyond the realm of emotionally undemanding agreement. That does not make these women crazy. That makes those women human beings, who have flaws, and emotional weak spots. However, deciding that any behavior that he does not like must be insane– well, that does make a man a jerk.
And when men do this on a regular basis, remember that, if you are a woman, you are not the exception. You are not so cool and fabulous and levelheaded that they will totally get where you are coming from when you show emotions other than “pleasant agreement.”
When men say “most women are crazy, but not you, you’re so cool” the subtext is not, “I love you, be the mother to my children.” The subtext is “do not step out of line, here.” If you get close enough to the men who say things like this, eventually, you will do something that they do not find pleasant. They will decide you are crazy, because this is something they have already decided about women in general.

Wow.
“God Only Knows” by The Flaming Lips // Originally by The Beach Boys
MOJO Magazine have gone and released another one of their excellent collections of present day bands re-interpreting classic albums. This time they’ve gathered a batch of great artists (The Flaming Lips, Saint Etienne, Gaz Coombes, and more) to tackle “Pet Sounds” by the Beach Boys. Included in that list is the inspired pairing of The Flaming Lips and the perfect pop classic, “God Only Knows”. Naturally, the Flaming Lips reconstruct the track in a way that makes it sound like an intergalactic lullaby being broadcast from some far off planet, but as always, they never stray far from a killer melody and that song has one built in like no other.
