Dude, how “complicated” is it?

I have asked this question several times already over at Plurk.

And just like what I have said… I consider guys who set their relationship status as “complicated”, gay. Well, most of them are gay, in my opinion.

I mean, it is easier to say that a guy is SINGLE or IN A RELATIONSHIP. So, why choose COMPLICATED?

If a guy is still courting a girl, technically, the guy is still SINGLE.

If a guy is in a relationship, but, having problems with it, technically, the guy is still IN A RELATIONSHIP. Unless, that guy really do wants to break-up with the girl, then, he would be SINGLE.

If a guy does not know what the real score is between him and a girl, then, that is the only time that his relationship status should be COMPLICATED. And that is the only acceptable situation for a guy to use that description.

But, knowing how straight guys are, most of the time they are assertive in their relationship status with a girl. So, some of them usually use IN A RELATIONSHIP already.

Or if a guy is proud to be not attached to a girl or feeling macho by wanting to meet more girls while in a relationship, that guy would choose SINGLE.

I mean, come on. If you are a straight guy, choosing COMPLICATED as your relationship status is just like putting yourself in a frying pan with hot oil in it. You do not want to attract attention from everyone by intruiging them with your relationship status.

Unless, you are a guy who is involve with another guy and that you just cannot expose your true self to the whole world. Thus, choosing COMPLICATED. Which is the usual case nowadays.
