How it ends?...

     So I had been contemplating on what to write about for my last blog post. I finally decided I'm going to do it on an update of and earlier post 'Relationships Ups and Downs'. I've decided I would update you on how my sister and her ex-boyfriends relationship ended up. When I previously posted  about it, it was about 2 months after the breakup and there was so much back and forth which involved a lot of drama. I had kept my self out of all of it and had said nothing, until I was told my sisters ex was going to delete me on facebook for whatever reason. So I put my two cents in there, he responded with nothing other then deleting me.
     Well Thanksgiving break came along and as I said before he wanted to see her. She gave in very easily and agreed. I could tell she missed him and wanted to get back together with him, yet he was still confused for whatever reason and kept saying he didn't know what he wanted to do.
     Well as of today I have been trying to avoid it all because I feel like having been there for my sister has back fired on me. She tells me they are working it out even though he is back at school which is out of  state. That is as much as I know, being she doesn't tell me as much now that she has him back. In a way I guess I don't know hot to completely feel about it, like I don't want to accept him back into our family because of everything he has put my family through and especially my sister.
     I was told he is scared of me and wants to talk to me, having already talked with my parents.  I know the only way I will ever forgive him is if we do talk. I just feel I should be able to drill him and ask what I want, since my sister didn't get many answers out of him. Overall I guess I just want to know for myself so that I can be happy for my sister and feel that she can maybe trust him. What do you think and how would you maybe have handled it?!
  

Reality TV: "Real Housewives"

     When searching the Internet I came across this article. Author Jennifer Pozner writes about reality TV shows and how they interpret 'women' to be. I feel she hit dead on in this article. I do watch a lot of reality TV, but hadn't watched much of the Real Housewives of wherever shows. So I took a minute to watch a few clips from those shows and I personally feel majority of the shows are ridiculous! I feel it is pretty much other women (Mothers) who are for the most part trying to live as if they were still in their youth years. There was one episode in particular with a group of the Housewives around ones pool and acting very immature. The owner of the houses daughter was present and it got to the point where she went in the house because she was so embarrassed of her Mothers behavior. I just know if that were my Mom I would have to look at her as more of a friend not as a Mother figure at all, because of her actions.
     In the article Jennifer Pozner goes on to talking about how the women on these reality TV shows are perceived to be dumb blonde's. I couldn't agree more with this statement because I feel it is so true. Whether or not if this is degrading the women population, these reality shows will still be seen on TV regardless. Reason being that so many of us women do watch these reality shows. Whether it does down grade women or not, it is most likely the women population that is keeping these shows on TV.
