To give you an idea of how my past experiences with men have gone, here's a rundown of let-downs (not to whine or anything...)
1. Dan: "Kimmy, i dont think we should date anymore." Kim: (obviously upset) "Why?" Dan: "Jees, Why are you so mad all of a sudden?? So, you wanna go to a movie?" Kim: "are you kidding me?" Dan: "Fine, you just wanna go to my place then?" HELLO?! I always thought that phrase 'he thinks with his other head' was just an expression.
2. Guy I met at a party: "Its just orange juice, I swear."
3. Brent: (After telling me in a round about way we are broked up) "Ok, kim. Let me put it this way. See, I am the squirrel, and you, you're the Nut. I am gonna take you and put you away until another time. I Still Like you and everything, but im just 'storing' you for a while" Kim: (desperatly trying to hold in laughter) "Um, if you say so" OK, so im a nut now. He already told me we are done, THEN he feels the need to twist the knife!
4. Just picture this. Ethan (your typical frat boy), drunk (what? a frat guy drinkin?), and naked trying to convince me to get all liquored up and shirtless like him. Ethan: " C'mon baby have a couple with me." Kim: "No." (Ethan, out of the blue, dancing nekid on his bed) Kim: " I think this is my cue to go back to my room" Ethan: "So, can we do it?" Kim: "What? Haha! No way!" Ethan: "Pleeeaaasee?? Can we, huh, can we? Come on please can we??" Just picture a nekid, drunk frat boy begging for sex and being rejected by (oh my) a Freshman!
5. Oh Look! We are back to Danny boy again! 6 months later, at my doorstep, he asks if i wanna "hang out". Well I soon found out that he literally wanted to let it all "hang out", if ya know what i mean.
6. Gary (askin me on a date): " I dont care if you just want me for my bod, cus that what i want from you" Gary, the girls must FLOCK to you. Your such a smooth talker...
7. I just hinted to one of my good male friends that maybe it would be cool if we dated. Him: "Kimmy!! I coud'nt! You're you. You're... Kimmy! Hahahaha..... Thats so funny!" Me: "haha. yea thats pretty funny. yea i was just kidding. haha."
Heres a thought...
Why is it that when your single and lookin for that special guy, one night hook up, someone to date etc... that for some reason, No ones around. BUT when your seein' one person kinda seriously, like, 20 gorgeous studs hit on ya in one night?! We may never understand this strange phenomenon. Are we suddenly more attractive when we are taken? Or are these hot babes just Toying with us... teasing us to see the longing "i wish i could" looks on our faces? I was just thinkin... no biggie. Carry on with what you were reading.
Since then, I've dated and met some interesting guys. After some college and growing up a little, I've become kinda picky. I have past the jock, beer chugging, Camaro driving, tough guy stage forever! No more single-digit IQs for me, thanks. Also crossed off my list are guys with the perfect looks who think it is my dream to fool around with them. It's like, Hey man, high school called and they want their hormones back...
Truthfully, I'll date most guys if they are a sweetheart, but yes, I've got actual 'standards' now. First and most importantly, he's got to make me laugh. If he takes everything seriously and doesn't get my jokes, theres no way in a million it'll work. When I go out with someone, I wanna have fun. Last I checked, laughing is a good indication of that.
Second, Hi! I'm talkin! Do you hear me?? Echo... echo... Its always nice when hes interested in what im saying. This is a Biggie.
Third, this is the one I think that I learned most about myself over the years, hes got to be 'different' in some way. Whether he is wicked smart or he gets really silly and crazy, or maybe he just thinks differently from other guys... something a little different. This keeps me interested and makes it more fun.
An Apparantly Little Known Fact: At heart, I am a sappy girl. But arn't most girls? We Looove little things (little things meaning gestures of love, not actual little things ... im appalled at your dirty mind...) These things include, but are in No way limited to: Out-of-the-blue phone calls at work, home, from your work etc..., Little presents, letters, a hug and kiss AS SOON as you see your girl, an email to say i love you.. its not that hard guys, you dont even have to spend money, just show some affection!
Bonus: If a guy is willing to do something outrageous, and even embarrass himself in public for me, I would be crrrazy over him. This is a definite bonus! It's only happened once before and I was so shocked and blushing.... I wouldve done anything for him right about then!
And oh yeah, I like geeks.
Standards of Lovin
Dont get me wrong! I love guys, but I've just had more than one bad experience with em. My longest relationship was for 9 months my first year of college and he was my first long-term boyfriend.
