Lyric discussion by astarlost 

this song struck home for me. i could totally relate to her and the pain in her lyrics. he doesn't understand how his behavior is hurting her or how its destroying the relationship. he thinks that what he's doing is his god-given right, to drink with the guys or chase after girls, whenever and however he wants. yet she is waiting at home, loyal and loving only him. its only too often that a guy will do that. but its not to say that there are girls who will do that too. for a guy to understand the hurt he could bestow on his girlfriend, takes sensitivity. its hard for him to even understand how hanging out with a girl late at night and not answering his phone would be offensive. but thats what beyonce is trying to say; if she were a boy, she would understand that and she wouldn't do anything to hurt her significant other, because they didn't deserve that. to treat your boyfriend/girlfriend with love, loyalty, and appreciation is something that takes sensitivity. and all too often the guy [or girl] will not have it. thumbs up to beyonce for this song; its amazing.
