31 things I wish I'd Known About About When I was 21 (Lulz reading)

[billfred]

As a Father of a 15 yr old girl, I liked it.

I am going to forward to her.

1. If you're confused about whether a guy likes you or not, that's probably not good. Confusion in romance belongs only in romantic comedies because it suspends the plot, but suspense in real life sucks. So try not to analyze the events. The truth will reveal itself without you having to do anything.

Meaning : "He's just not that into you". Yeah... don't waste your fucking time (be you man or woman) with someone that is spinning their wheels unless all you want is a fuck buddy.

3. Even a guy who will admit that you're better looking than him

I stopped reading here. Must be common in the hetero world cause I ain't heard of that happening in my universe.

4. Don't help him ask you out by texting him something nice or polite. I'm glad you're more outgoing and thoughtful than he is, but he doesn't want the help.

Good advice. Cause I hate this shit. Sending a mindless nonsense text on the (failing) hope that I will read it, reply and then as an after thought ask them to go out later. Pffft. As if.

5. Guys want to get busy more than anything. They'll say anything to close the deal.

Word to yo mutha.

6. It's shocking how much guys will talk about marriage. Until there's a ring on your finger, it will be better for you if you pretend you're deaf.

Only thing for shocking is people who takes guys like this seriously.

7. It's better not to lift a finger in the beginning.

Hell, I don't lift a finger years later.

8. In the early stages, giving him presents is too much. Generosity looks desperate to guys.

Believe it or not. I agree. I mean, it just reeks of desperation and obsession. Which is only a good thing if you want it to be. Gets smothering.

9. Guys just do not think like girls. I wish I'd had a brother. Real boys are nothing like the boys in movies.

Especially in porn movies. I don't know how a woman can watch one porn scene and then be content with her BF/SO afterwards? Those dudes in there are plucked hairless, buffed, and can tactfully apply eyeliner. And that's not mentioning the giant dongs.

13. Just because he might be smarter than you or more talented at certain things doesn't mean he's your servant and won't mind doing all your homework/research/chores.

He isn't.
He's not.
He better learn to.

14. Guys get resentful, too.

No, seriously... we don't. Not ever. I mean it.

15. You're special, unique, and important, but you're not a princess —

I shout this line at tricks I am dumping quite often.

17. Playing it safe guarantees you'll have more time and energy to think about your grades or your work. Less drama in your life will always be better and healthier for you.

Translation = Loser.

18. You deserve to be treated like a human being.

Occasionally.

19. Your wants and needs are just as important as his, and if you don't express them because you think it will scare him away, then you're saying you don't count as much as he does.

I don't care if you think your wants and needs are as important as mine (FYI they are not), but I really don't want to hear about it and you thinking so.

20. Even sophisticated people with professional jobs can have tempers or hit you or use foul language.

And some have a business on the side where they get paid to do this.

22. Ease up on the sauce. Alcohol clouds your judgment.

Yes, and that pair of shoes that is missing the next morning is because you left them somewhere else. Not because I stole them.

23. No boyfriend-girlfriend relationship starts with a 1 a.m. booty text.

No, but a lot of boyfriend-boyfriend relationships do.

24. When a guy has taken you to Applebee's five times

He will be dead.

28. Never underestimate the quality of "interesting." Men want someone interesting. They really do. Find some hobbies.

Nagging is NOT a hobby.

30. Expectations? They'll ruin every dating experience you have.

True stuff here.

31. You will never understand men. Just try to understand yourself.

Your mother should have taught you this.

If she had, 4 things she wished she should have known, it wouldnt have been so pathetic

but I guess that wouldnt have been so catchy. Who reads these magazines?

I had no problem with guys talking marriage w/ me - three relationships the guy brought up marriage before I even thought about it

None of them wanted to get married right away, but they were not afraid to talk marriage w/ me

See #5.

32. You should always let a guy blast you with a facial on the first date. Always.

32. You should always let a guy blast you with a facial on the first date. Always.

Good point.
Just to prove you're dating material.

i actually agree with some of that; the rest makes me feel sorry for her.

 

[Captain FT]

She has issues
