We're deviating from our list roundup. This happened yesterday while I was on the commute to town. If ever you've heard of The Call by the Backstreet Boys, that's where the title's from. Although I'm pretty sure this call was way different. I was at the back so at first I thought that she was talking to the person seated next to her. When the girl went down, I realized that the other girl was talking loudly on the phone.
From how it sounded, things had escalated to the point that the girl was already too suspicious of the guy, or too hurt to listen to reason. The lines went like this:
"It took you an HOUR to eat? IMPOSSIBLE."
"No, I don't believe that."
"No, you're the one saying that."
"So whatever you did is more important than me?"
"IT'S MORE IMPORTANT THAN ME!?!"
Then she put down the phone. I had half the mind to run after her and tell her not to take such personal calls in public. It was embarrassing. Then again, I didn't know the whole story to make a specific conclusion. What struck me were the facts that she was yelling at her boyfriend through the phone in public, and comparing whatever it was to her. I mean, sure, you can be important in a person's life, but asserting it in that manner of speaking made her look childish and unreasonable. I wouldn't really know how it is, but I know for a fact that when you're fighting with someone, you don't make a scene. Well maybe she was that fed up with him, but who knows. Who knows who's on the right part of the spectrum with these things? I hope things ended up well with them in the long run though, and maybe the guy really had a good explanation to why he wasn't there when the girl needed him.
As much as we talk about cannibal bunnies here, I still want to point out that sometimes, emotions get the best of us, even if it's with things that we don't mean. Things could still have ended for the better with them, and we're not the ones to pass a verdict to a complete stranger. Just my two-cents. =)
Evil cannibal bunnies. So what is this blog really about? It's actually about how we, as friends see other friends ruin themselves in relationships they can do without. Born out of frustrations of not being able to do anything, this blog exists to give light, and hopefully some sense into other people who need help getting away from evil cannibal bunnies.

Evil Bunny #3: The Bunny is a Lie
How It Begins
How does a liar bunny fit into a destructive relationship? We actually think that this type of bunny is a by-product of the 24hr surveillance bunny and the paranoid bunny. This type of bunny could be anyone in the relationship, he may have his own issues as well, but he could also be a normal person who's starting to feel suffocated with all the distrust and the hovering "conscience". She could be the girl who's a bit busy and gets irritated easily and would rather move away from all the smothering.

Evil Bunny # 2: The Paranoid
How It Begins
I can't even find anything to give an example of paranoia being a good thing. Maybe someone out there might think that it's sweet that their partner thinks the world of them and is afraid to lose them, but wake up and smell the evil bunny biting off your arm! It's the smell of horrible distrust and misplaced fear of loss. I can't even think of an example to make this sound having anything "sweet" like the first bunny.

Evil Bunny #1: The 24hr Surveillance Partner
How It Begins
In any type of relationship, you'll see a similar kind of behavior. He would call you once you get home, just to make sure you got home safely. Or she would text you to tell you she was worried about you since you were out late, and that you should take care. A sweet thought, isn't it? I personally think it's a sweet gesture for any guy to text that to me, or call me up when he wants to know how I'm doing. That's okay to an extent, and it can show you how much your partner cares for you. The sweet beginnings of a caring relationship, or is it?

About the Blog
Why cannibal bunnies? Of all the things, why bunnies?
I don't hate bunnies, but they just fit the analogy. When bunnies get scared, they pee. They chew on everything they can get their teeth on, it doesn't care if it's biting on something important to you. They're pretty low maintenance but they don't bark or show affection like cats or dogs. They're useful in the wild, not caged up as a pet. No offense, I used to own bunnies, and they're fluffy, but they're just not my type of pet. Give me a cat or dog on my lap and I'll be happy.
Don't get me wrong, I've been in love and I know how stupid anyone can get while having a special someone to dote over, to call on the phone and tell them "I love you", "I miss you", "I can't wait to see you" or "You're money honeybunch, sugarplum, pummy-yummy-yumpkin, you're my sweetie pie" (ugh). As much as I wrinkle my nose at sweet talk, some people fit that kind of image, and I can tolerate and respect if that's what floats your boat.
Anyhow, back to bunnies, bunny relationships start out great, like every other relationship. What sets it apart from a healthy relationship is that it's the kind of relationship where you begin to feel that your soul is slowly being sucked out of you, and no matter what you do, it doesn't seem to be working at all. You fight, you make up, but you sink back into the old pattern and the old things repeat all over again. Resentments build up, you fight, you can't meet what s/he wants for the relationship, you break up, you get back together because you can't live without him/her. Then you break up again.
It's a tiring cycle, and if you're seeing this pattern in anyone you know or in your own relationship, then you've a got an evil cannibal bunny in your hands. We're dedicating this blog to people in relationships and their friends so people can see patterns in their own relationships that have held true for us and the friends around us. One type of evil bunny does not equate to one person alone and there may be variations of what we've discussed. There can be several evil bunnies in one relationship, and if ever you count more that you can see in your own relationship, we suggest you run, before that bunny eats your legs and leave you helpless and broken.
