The Same Old Lies

Why are women so stupid?  We fall for the same old lies time and time again.  We see others in the same situation, and we think "that won't happen to me".  We convince ourselves that if we love hard enough it will be OK.  We are willing to put in enough effort for both of us.  We know, deep deep down, when something is not right, but we try, oh how we try, to bury the seed of doubt because if we close our eyes to it it's not happening.  But it is happening.

Why?  Why do we do that?  Why do we continue to love people that don't deserve us? 

We ignore the warning cries of our friends.  We ignore the warning cries of our hearts.  And then our hearts get broken and frankly, we only have ourselves to blame.
