Trying REAL hard not to screw this up

It has been a while… and man a lot has happened. I don’t know if I have the time or patience to spell it all out… the list of prospective dates needs to be updated tremendously! haha

so here’s the thing… I think I might be on my way to a relationship !?!??! who would have guessed right? I’ll write another post about it when I have more time (im on my way out)… but if anyone still reads this thing, let it be known that I actually did something right and I’m trying REAL hard not to mess it up with this girl.

Complimenting Power

It wasn’t until recently that I realized the significance of the insignificant. Of course, I am referring to the everyday compliment. The past few months I have been dishing out more compliments to girls I am friends with and the ones I am dating… and man, they eat it UP!

I don’t think us guys compliment girls enough because when I do dish one out, it changes their mood completely – it’s a weird phenomenon.

For example, I was going in to get my haircut the other day. While waiting for my stylist to finish up, I noticed she was looking really good. She had on one of those yellow, t-shirt material dresses that went down to just above her knees. I definately find her attractive, and wouldn’t even mind a date with her, but over the past year her and I have just been friends… only seeing each other when I come in every 6 weeks for a clean up.

Well, she came over to get me and as we were walking to the seat, I said:

I really like you dress, it looks great on you

Thats it. That is all I said. But man, you would have thought I just gave her three dozen fresh roses! She lit up immediately and became more chatty, quick to giggle, and overall flirty with me the entire time I was there!

Needless to say, complimenting has some major advantages. I highly recommend it… and girls, do it to guys as well. No one compliments anyone these days, so when you do, it makes you stick out (in a good way). If you’re gonna compliment a guy, say something about his muscles or ability to fix/do something. This may seem kind of cliche, but us guys like to be recognized for those types of things (why do think guys are always trying to fix a problem instead of just listen to the problem! It’s how our minds work).

Something along the lines of, “your shoulders look really big in that shirt” will do just fine… Or perhaps, “I can’t believe you were able to fix that so quick”. I promise you that it will work wonders.

As for the fellas, start complimenting the ladies on how they look. Besides, they put in a lot of effort to look good … let them know you noticed!

I can only speak from my experience, but after dishing out compliments on clothing, hair, smiles, etc., I have had a lot more success in getting dates. Just a thought.

This New Pad is HOT!

Quick update.  I’m in my new place right now and it feels great.  I had my furniture delivered today so I’ve been setting everything up.  Oh, and the cable/internet came today as well… obviously.  My pad is on its way to becoming a classy bachelor apartment.  Hopefully when I am done I can get some pictures to show.  Thanks for everyone who gave their input regarding brown shoes and black pants.  Surprisingly, I was the one who said you can’t do it (my mom thought you could match those two colors) – I knew I was right!

On a side note, I’ll be seeing that waitress tonight that I was talking about a while back (I’m going with a friend to get dinner at the place she works).  Keep your fingers crossed as I continue this pursuit.

Most Recent “Date”

It wasn’t really a date, it was very much like the chill night I had two days ago. Again, Kelly decided to come over after work (she works late) and I wasn’t up to anything much other than preparing for my big move. She came over around 10pm and we decided to just kick it and watch TV… Gangs of New York to be specific.

Naturally though, watching TV became a second priority as we began to focus on each other a bit more. She decided it would be a good idea to give me a back rub (and holy shit, she is amazing at them). Of course I didn’t argue with this. Well, after about 20min, it was safe to say that TV was the last thing on my mind. I turned over and let her know what I was thinking by grabbing the back of her head and pulling her in for a passionate kiss.

When all was said and done, we popped open a beverage and watched the rest of the movie… which is actually REALLY good! It was a fun night. I’m not sure when I’ll get a chance to see Kelly again since my job starts up and I’ll be a couple of hours from her – but whatever, I’m sure our paths will cross again.

15 Reasons Why I’m Glad to be a Guy

I got to thinking today about what life would be like if I was a girl… and I immediately became grateful that I am a guy! I think this top 15 list sums up my thoughts nicely. In no particular order, they are as follows:

1. It feels good to pee: If a guy holds his pee for a really long time and finally goes, it feels like a mild orgasm. I’ve heard this is not true in women. Sorry. Is it bad that I always hold my pee as long as I can for this reason?
2. I can pee anywhere, and any way I want: I can pee outside, standing up, or even lying on my side (why would I do that? Because I can). I also don’t have to wipe the tip of my penis when I am finished. If you have sandals on, and you’re on concrete; you have to angle the penis up and shoot the stream far away so the splash doesn’t hit your feet. This is also fun to do. Women wouldn’t dare pee on concrete. That would be bad.
3. I can aim my pee stream: There is something about writing your name with your pee in snow. It’s easy in cursive because you don’t have to stop. Try printing it guys, it’s much more challenging. Sorry women, you can’t do this either.
4. The monthly visit: This has got to be one the most glaring bonuses for men. I could not imagine what it would be like to have blood come out of my pee hole. Screw that. Plus all the pain before and after the event. PMS? Sorry girls.
5. Child birth: A wise man once told me that if men were to bear children, there would be families with either one child, or none. If there were two kids, they must be twins. No man would ever go through that more than once, and they would ALL be by C-section.
6. Nine months of pregnancy: Refer to my previous list comments.
7. We have a single orgasm, maybe two: If men could have multiple orgasms, would we ever get anything accomplished? We would have like 10 a day.
8. We get to have sex with women: Men are hairy, stinky, usually not muscular. We fart, burp…gross. Women are beautiful, curvy, have breasts, smell wonderful, have beautiful hair, lips, etc. Men are so lucky indeed.
9. The wonderful double standard: Man sleeps with 20 women…cool. Woman sleeps with 20 men…slut.
10. Makeup: I’m so glad women wear makeup, but I am damn lucky that I don’t have to.
11. Getting ready: From getting out of bed to walking out the door = 15 minutes
    Women…1 hour 15 minutes on a good day.
12. Ugly men still date hot women: Although this can be annoying at times.
13. Fat men still date hot women: There are much more fat man, hot girl relationships than fat women, hot guy relationships.
14. Shaving: Yes we have to shave our face and you don’t. But we don’t HAVE to do it, and I must say some women prefer scruffy men. You won’t find a man anywhere in the world that likes a chick with hairy armpits. I know some women choose not to shave, and most men choose not to date those women.
15. I can take off my shirt whenever I get hot: I wish this was accepted for women to do, but it isn’t…not yet
