Jumping Ladders

So....apparently The Ladder Theory is something everyone knows about. I had never heard about it tonight, but I just think it's so great. Annnnddd I never blog, so maybe it's a good thing to blog about?

So the ladder theory is about how guys and girls are attracted to each other. Guys have one ladder, and girls have two ladders.

The girls' have a 'potential' ladder and a 'friend' ladder.
Guys have one ladder, simply put- a 'girls they would have sex with' ladder.

When a girl first meets a guy, they are immediately placed on either the 'friend' or 'potential' ladder. This sucks for most guys, because they don't know what ladder they're placed on. And girls are just as willing to invest time into their friend ladder as they are their potential ladder, so sometimes it's hard to figure out which ladder you're on.

Guys have one ladder, the higher a girl is on this ladder, the more they want to have a relationship with her and the more time they invest in her. The lower, the less attracted they are to her, and the less attention she gets.

Now when I heard this theory I thought it was so great a did a little research on it. Most of the sites I went to said guys can never switch from one ladder to the other, but I totally think they can they can. Way easily, even on a daily basis. I think girls are constantly changing which ladder they put guys on. I also think they can start out on the friend ladder and get so high the ladders eventually meet, or they can start out as the same ladder, and grow apart so they're just on the friend ladder.

Isn't that just so great?? I love that theory! Also, it explains why every girl in this video below says girls and guys can be just friends.
