Dating is one of the most awkward things most of us choose to go through. From the very first time he or she asks you out, to the scheduling of the meeting time, waiting for a call, to the interview-like setting, and sometimes even awkward silence. No one really likes to date. They are often after: Do you like me? Are we compatible? Would we make a good match? Do you like what I like? Do I like what you like? Do you like kids? Do you want kids? Are you looking for a partner? Are you looking to get married? And so on and so forth. If we could all just really skip all that and get to the nitty gritty, the truth is: We’re all human, most of us all want companionship, love, and even romance. So what if you could skip all that and really know your date? Are they really for you? If you can imagine this person being at their worst, and you still find them attractive, they might just be for you, even if they are gross.
The human body is gross. Whether you are a male or female, there are plenty of things on your own body that you are probably not particularly fond of. From farting to picking at dead skin to awkward weird smells and bad breath. It is even more embarrassing when other people notice these things on you or coming from you. There are definitely some things you can do to cover up body awkwardness such as bathing, mani-pedis, deodorant, toothpaste, and many other different types of products to upkeep your body.
When dating someone, these gross factors are often hidden well. Sometimes they are noticeable, but ignored, as if they are not really there, or expected. The truth is, they are there and they will likely not go away. People who date and fall in love often accept each other – flaws and all. This also includes farting, particular eating habits, and other habits that may gross out any normal human being. After the reality sets in, a woman might ask, “Really? Did you just…” towards any kind of body function that her man might have which becomes very apparent only weeks or months into the relationship.
Still she deals with him and his antics, and if she somehow stuck through it all – as women do – as the years go on, she too, allows her body awkwardness to show, if she has not already done so. Reality sets in. She does fart. Her poop does not smell like roses. And when she does get her period, it can be very messy. She can also certainly produce some foul odors coming from ‘down there’. And this does not even cover what goes on during her pregnancy all the way until she gives birth to her child. And any man, though seemingly petrified stands tough, as he proudly wears his man card, watching his wife… expand beyond comprehension – and normally sticking around through it all and somehow later going back for more once things “return to normal.”
If the couple is in love or is married, they accept each other for all of their weird body awkwardness, as they well should. It is the natural human body and we must accept and deal with it for all the awkward weird stuff that comes from it, comes out of it, and even at times, for women in particular — the things that go into it.
