For Birmingham, Alabama couple Eddie Cameron and Sylvia Statton, being in a relationship with one another was a breath of freshly needed air. According to sources close to the pair, neither of them were anything like their previous relationships which, according to police reports, was the best thing for both of them.
So imagine young Eddies reaction when he found out late one night during a heated argument(about money) that Sylvia was exactly like all the others when it came to arguing.
“We were yelling about the electric bill. “Eddie told us by phone Saturday night, “And she says something like, You don’t ever tell me how much money you have, so I don’t know what I can and can’t do! So I yell back that I tell her everything and if i forget then she just needs to freaking ask me.
All of a sudden she comes at me with, “you won’t let me in, do you not trust me? These fights happen because you don’t talk to me when your stressed about money.” So I look at her confused and asked her if she was blaming me for her spending of all our money? That’s when it hit me, Jessica, my last girlfriend used to do the same thing. We would constantly fight and she would blame me for her actions.”
A recent study at Yale showed that women were 84 percent more likely to do this in a fight. It doesent matter if its about who ate the rest of the ice cream or if she is cheating, eventually the guy somehow gets blamed. More so even for women on the west coast.
Roger Farris, a scientist who started the study, had this to say, “We found that women had a defense mechanism embedded in their brain that would not let them admit they were to blame. I’ll be honest with you, after the results came through, I thought about being gay, just for a moment. It really was frighting stuff. The women that can admit to any wrong doing on their part, honestly, really haven’t, they just say they are wrong just to shut the boyfriend or husband up.
After the argument is over, what happens to these subjects is that the thought that they are right begins to fester, breeding more thoughts even, until it is to late. That’s when the bad stuff happens……the really scary shit.”
What will happen to Eddie and Sylvia’s once peaceful relationship? Only time will tell but we wish them the best.
