Commitment

Tuesday, February 12th, 2008
I posted this as a thread in the online forum I frequent in. But I also wanna get your thoughts. I was watching the news (for a change :D) and they had this feature about rent-a-pet. I got curious and made me think about a few things about commitment.

Here in the states, may RENT-a-DATE i.e if you feel like going for the perks of dating without the commitment (Disclaimer: I haven’t tried this yet, hahahha, maybe soon) may RENT-a-CENTER… like renting your appliances instead of buying them kung nde mo pa feel bumili. Off course may RENT-a-CAR. Even designer purses you can just rent them for a few weeks instead of buying them. And then now, I saw in the news, in cities like LA and NY and coming soon in a few more cities, you can RENT-a-DOG, you can RENT-a-WHatever you wanna rent in this day and age.

What has happened to this generation? Are we that afraid of commitment now? In this age wherein it is difficult for many of us to keep a committed relationship, much so a marriage, get committed in a job (I just filed my resignation in my part time job after just a year), even get committed to a state to live in (my friends have been doing this travel assignments coz they can’t decide where to settle down yet) what does it tell about us?

So, what is my purpose for this post? hahahha, di ko din alam I just wanna get your thoughts about it. I didn’t mean to sabotage my bespren, if you are reading this, I know you know this is just me thinking aloud, I didn’t mean to give you as an example :D, ayabyu :D.

So yeah, do you agree that we are a commitment-phobe generation? I mean, ako, I know I want commitment in my relationships, pero for some reason, I find myself being a commitment-phobe in all the other aspects of my life. So, what ya think?
