Food for Thought

I stumbled across this quote today and am rather sad to say that it's mostly true.

"I'm 99% sure that he doesn't like me, it's the 1% that keeps me hanging on."

I know that I've been guilty of this, and I know many other girls who have been too. And it makes me wonder why we do it to ourselves. What is it about a person that will keep you coming back again and again hoping that the 1% will come true, even though over and over again you're being beaten over the head with the 99%? The worst part is, many of us realize that we do it as we're doing it, and can't or wont stop the cycle, which cause us to be wasting on time on someone who doesn't deserve it, when there is likely someone right around the corner who does. I may be a girl, but I'll still never understand the way we think.
