My Birthday Gift to You, Ladies of the World
September 7th, 2006 § 1 comment § permalink
As my birthday fast approaches (tomorrow in fact), I am taking a bit of time to pontificate on my twenty six years and the lessons I have learned, particularly when it comes to guys.
I cannot claim to know it all about them, but what wisdom I DO know, I will now pass on to you. These are all lessons that I had to learn the hard way, and so I am saving YOU the trouble, dear Internet, as well as the time, effort, and heartache, so that you can avoid similar situations and get on with your lives. Ladies, HEED MY WARNING BELLS.
This is my gift to you.
Here we go….
If he still sucks his thumb at night….he may not be the guy for you.
If he spends more time smoking weed than working (6 hours smoking versus 0 hours working in fact)…he may not be the guy for you.
If he is so enraged with jealousy because you are talking with another guy on the street corner that he keeps speeding by in his car and blasting “your” song until he crashes into another car…..he may not be the guy for you.
If he wets the bed and makes you think it was you…..he may not be the guy for you.
If he…..ahem…..takes and will not give……he may not be the guy for you.
If he accuses you of sleeping with practically every guy you work with no matter who they are and how long they have been there….he may not be the guy for you.
If he still lives with his mother (forgivable of course) but also STILL has his childhood bedroom decorated to exactly how it would have been when he was 3 (ie stuffed animals, primary colors, Mickey Mouse figures, etc)….he may not be the guy for you.
If his idea of a date is the backseat of the car in the woods……he may not be the guy for you.
If he is still reliving his high school football glory days…..10 years later….and he wasn’t all that great then even…..he may not be the guy for you.
If he claims that putting 3000 miles between the two of you will be “good for our relationship”…..he may not be the guy for you.
If he is crosseyed and you were so drunk the first night that you met that you didn’t even know it…..he may not be the guy for you. (And you probably are not the ideal girl for him.)
If he is a closet junkie, or lives in a squat and is homeless……he may not be the guy for you.
If he won’t tell his parents about you due to significant religious differences….he may not be the guy for you.
If your bra suddenly goes missing…..he may not be the guy for you.
If his mother is such a psychopath that she presses on your doorbell non-stop at 4 o’clock in the morning until the battery in it dies at which point she starts screaming his name up at your 3rd floor window….and he doesn’t wake up…he may not be the guy for you.
If he cannot decide whether he wants to call you “honey” or “FUCKING SLUT!!!!!!”…..he may not be the guy for you.
If he throws away photos of your exes for you (how considerate of him)…..he may not be the guy for you.
And now the Doozie. The Number One Warning Bell, if you will:
If he joins an online dating service after proposing to you….HE MAY NOT BE THE GUY FOR YOU.
OK, I think that is enough wisdom for one life.
This is not saying that ALL of my exes have been dumbasses. In fact, I think I have had a pretty good, solid- albiet it rather long- history of dating the “nice guys” and look back fondly on all of my past relationships. In fact, I am still on friendly terms with most of them. In the worst of cases, they were a learning experience, if nothing else.
Only time will tell if I have got it right this time.
