Where did the respect go

Even though it's accepted in this world for guys not to respect girls, it's not cool. Just because everyone does it, doesn't mean it's ok.

I love you so much that i respect you. I respect the decisions you make, as well as the situation you're in with your family. I make you lunch everyday freaking day, i give you massages when you want them (even though i'm not that fond of giving them), i always say thank you, i write you letters expressing my appreciation for everything you do. I do so many things for you and you can't even say "thank you"--two simple words--let alone "wow baby, look how amazing you are, you made me such a nice lunch today. I could've gone hungry but you made sure i didn't".


Why don't you appreciate the things i do for you? Instead you just raise your hand to me pretending you're going to hit me just because i'm not doing every little thing you want me to do. How come the things i do for you don't suffice? Let me just tell you that i hope you NEVER raise your hand to hit a girl in your life. That's not cool, and it's not even cool to joke about. I know people who have been beaten by their dads or husbands for the same reason you lift your hand to me. It's not cool.


Respect isn't something that comes for free, and it's not something that money can buy, so if you want my respect you have to give it to get it. I'm sick of putting up with all your crap about women being inferior to men or just there to satisfy guys' needs. I'm not your servant and the world doesn't owe you everything you want. You should be grateful for everything you have and especially all the things that other people do for you just because they love you. Don't take for granted everything that you get everyday. You might be cool and popular around the majority of the people at school, but you're not cool to me--you've become just any other guy. And just because you're "ethnic" doesn't mean that it's okay to disrespect me.


If you're not careful and take for granted all the things that you have, eventually disappear and you'll start wishing that you were grateful for them.
