All the Single Ladies...Check this out!

Howdy y'all,

Finals week + blog writer's block + pure laziness = l a c k  o f  p o s t s
(which means I am passively screaming for some ideas here....Tell me what you want to see on this here bloggy blog and I will see what I can do about it.)


Here is a great site I came across one moment and subscribed to on Google reader the next moment because I enjoyed it so much.  See for yourself.

THE RULES GIRL


Funny enough, I have been adopting the theories of the aforementioned page before I even knew about this. 

Coincidentally enough, lately I have been thinking the SAME EXACT that was featured on today's post! 

People say the stupidest things sometimes

I was just talking to a friend of mine who's in her mid 20s.  She's dated quite a bit, and all kinds of guys.  She is a cute, sweet, smart, funny gal who has her head on straight and it just doesn't make sense that some amazing guy hasn't snatched her up yet.  She usually would let people set her up on dates and stuff, but has recently confessed she's gonna start being a little more picky from here on out. 

We started talking about the guys who have a hard time committing, others who are too eager to commit, the mystery guys who disappear just when things seem to be going great, the cowards who lead us on and suddenly never call again leaving us wondering if he was attacked by flying monkeys or something, there's the creeps who leave messages that include the latest weather report, and then....every now and then, a guy who takes some responsibility, actually CALLS to ask out on a date, AND communicates about his feelings.  Wow.  Refreshing!  And rare.

Well, just when we thought we'd heard all the excuses in the book, this one seemingly nice guy said what is possibly the most absurd of them all.....

"I feel like we don't really click.  I have a hard time relating to your culture."

(He even specified she might be better off with a guy who knows Spanish, how thoughtful!)

HA HA HAAAA! 
Wait a second.
 
WHAT?!?!
Seriously?!

Ok, you have to understand that my friend has lived here almost her entire life.  Most people have a hard time believing she wasn't born here.

His comment caught her off guard, but it took a full 24 hours for this absolutely ridiculous comment to sink in.  She asked some friends what they thought and one guy was like: "Is he retarded?  Latins are hot and good cooks!" another said, "That's just BS sister."

{Sigh}

 It's really sad how incompetent people can be.  Geez. 

I mean, Hello!  Pretty sure EVERY SINGLE PERSON ON THE PLANET HAS CULTURE! Duh.

Oh well.  I guess it takes a really lame guy to come up with that lame of an excuse.
Poor dude.

"You are my exception"

Oh to hear those four words.....sigh.  Haha.

So I FINALLY saw that movie, "He's Just Not That Into You".  And yeah, I may have pulled a GiGi here and there.  And yes, I DO understand now, if the guy is interested he'll call, if he's not, he won't.  A few of my favorite parts:

* When GiGi was so convinced whats-his-face was interested in her and she goes in for the kiss and then he's like "what the heck?!" and then she storms out saying that even if she read the signs wrong at least she is closer to finding someone than he is because she allows herself to "feel" (something like that)  BOO-YAH!

*When Mary is talking about how she misses the old days when people had one phone number with one machine that had one little tape that either had a message on it or not and how frustrating it is to end up getting rejected by 7 different technologies!  haha.

*Where the married lady goes crazy and is throwing her scumbag cheating husband's clothes down the stairs....and then when bumface cheating husband gets home it shows the clothes and shoes neatly piled on the steps, color coded and in vacuum sealed packs.  (OCD! haha)

*When Ben Affleck's character (who doesn't believe in marriage) hides a ring in the pants Jennifer Aniston's character hates and is going to throw out, and he tells her to check the pockets first at least and then he proposes and says he just wants to make her happy and that if she's not happy he has absolutely no chance at being happy.  (Aw, cute)

So I came across a blog where someone was like "I believe in the 3 date rule"...as in, it takes at least 3 dates to give someone a fair chance before deciding to keep going or not.  Hmm...anyone agree?  I've been given a death sentence after one date (ending with, "keep in touch"....uh huh....okay!) and also the 3 date chance (led on and then dropped without forewarning.....  Everyone is different I guess!  Isn't it exciting!  You never know what you're gonna get!!!
