The "Why are you still single?" quiz, sorta

[NoAvailableName]

Don’t leave us in suspense… What are these horrible thoughts that men have?

Err… Dunno, that forgetting an anniversary is not a crime?

It’s easy - you know the old phrase WWJD- well supplement with What Would Satan Do and you have how most men approach dating.

Show some respect!
Men are like fine wine - less than you want is more than you need, and too much will leave you laughing like a lunatic (or charging like a crazed bull).

 

[dakotagirl]

Is that the crying girl trick?

Nah. That trick is not my style, anyway. There is a threat in the US to “wash out one’s mouth with soap” when one has said something particularly vulgar.

Ah, I figured you were going with the “It takes forever for them to mature” angle on this But what you said is good too

 

[dakotagirl]

War is war but any woman pulling deception on me would resume being single rather soon.

Aw…your humor gets better and better.

 

[dakotagirl]

(Obviously, choosing to act on the better part of one’s character than the *other *one is a normal moral process and a part of growing up, not deception.)

Is that the old “you’re so immature” gag? Such a shame that I was wise to that yesterday.

Thanks! I’ll be looking for my luck in the mail. You’d think being 5’2" with red hair I would come equipped with my own built in luck, but that’s not the case. Somebody stole me lucky charms! No really… I think somebody stole them. Now that I’m single I’m attracting a few guys… but for some reason they all seem to be married/separated Why can’t SINGLE AVAILABLE guys think I’m amazing and pretty??

I have to confess, I stole them. They were delicious. Oh wait, we aren’t talking about cereal?
I’m thinking my boyfriend must have vision problems, or built in beer goggles. I’m 5’7’’, fat, and brunette, people pass me by all the time. Or I meet people online, they like my personality, and then run when they see me.
I have tons of guy friends, but very few boyfriends. I’m the girl who can crack anyone up, but I never set hearts racing. So most guys don’t think of me in the romantic way.
Anywho, after that random segue, being patient sucks. So does dating. And vaccums. And Kathrine McPhee. It’s been FOUR YEARS since my last serious boyfriend (wow, that is more pathetic now it is written out, it is depressing). If I can find someone, anyone can. I have faith in you. I’m always up for any single talk anytime.

PS. I am losing weight BTW. So I won’t be fat and funny, I’ll be hungry, thinner, and whiney. Is that better?

It does occur to me to tell you a hint that I do know for a fact, though. Men go ga-ga over guess which quality? Gentleness, actually.

Well I don’t speak for all men (and I can’t understand how any guy can ? ) but that definitely rings true for me.

Sure do. However, not all. Some, and I would estimate it to be a large number, actually do go for vulgar displays of sexual openness or some other overt manifestations of sexual power. Not sure if the term “men” is appropriate, since at least in that single respect they should be termed “boys”, even if they are grey and balding.

Can’t say I’m one of them then. Like I said, I’m not fond of dominating women, sexually and otherwise. >_>;;

Don’t leave us in suspense… What are these horrible thoughts that men have?

On second thought, would I really want to know what men think? Hmm…

Careful what you ask for ladies. >_>;; Men (like women) come in various categories. The men of some categories (like my own) have thoughts when described would have me banned from this site. Heck, I don’t even need to know these guys personally. I just need to take one look at their art and I’m like… O.O;;;

Then again, not like I’m one to talk since I now have an annoying imp in my head who shares half of my brainspace and he’s just as naughty as these dudes. >.<;;

stops bitter thought To counterbalance that very stereotypical thought, here’s my mind: “Coffee, Coffee, my cats are cute, Tiffany engagement rings, Coffee, Sleep, coffee, COOKIES!, Elliott Yamin, Brad Paisley”

At least your mind is still in one piece. >_>;; Here’s mine split like a guy with potential personality disorders:

Actual Me: Duels, cards, must beat Chazz Princeton, Fairy Tail, guild, mages, Shounen Jump, OneManga, HOMEWORK!!! GRAAAHH!! CAN’T THINK OF ANYTHING!! D8, Bad Grades, Uncertain Future T_T, Writing, Writing, Writing, Naruto, Akatsuki, Tsukiyomi, Uchiha…

Rejected Me: Maids, desu, neko, neko, yuri, sera fuku, To Love-ru, K-On!, Moe!, Moe!, Moe!, Lucky Star, otaku, More Moe!, Sekirei, , , , uniforms, nurse, school, gakuen, LOLI!!! >8D

Actual Me: Wanting to kill Rejected Me. DX

Same here.

Thankee. I haven’t litigated for a while!

Is that the old “you’re so immature” gag? Such a shame that I was wise to that yesterday.

Not at all. It was just a disclaimer based on the idea that expounding one’s good qualities instead the bad ones was somewhat natural and, if connected with some desire to keep acting better than one’d be inclined to, was a normal part of growing up. Hence, deceit couldn’t be charged just because someone was trying to make an impression. Just in case someone should get ideas.

Can’t say I’m one of them then. Like I said, I’m not fond of dominating women, sexually and otherwise. >_>;;

Well, vulgar isn’t necessarily domineering or vice versa, even if it might be interconnected. Anyway, I’ve got a problem with the idea of a man seeking a dominatrix unless he’s going for an alpha-alpha match. Speaking of… eh… never mind.

Well we could be talking about cereal, I’d hate to see you go hungry and be whiney. That just won’t do! But thinner is good. I was working on getting in better shape before I tore my ACL. Now the gym plans are on hold. And I agree, dating does suck. I might be a closet supporter of arranged marriages As long as said marriage would be between me and Gerard Butler.
That said, two married guys, and one unmarried one thinks that I’m wonderful. And now, another guy I knew from way back when started talking to me again today. I think God is playing a cosmic joke on me. I really want a boyfriend/someday husband, and four guys are being thrown at me, two of which are un-datable and the other two just aren’t the kind of guy I want to be with. I want QUALITY not QUANTITY I just keep telling myself I know God has a plan… and this is probably some sort of test… but it feels like one of those dreams tests that you haven’t studied for and if you don’t do well you will fail and you’re in your underwear taking it in front of the whole class. ~sigh~

I was heading to the gym yesterday, and I knocked my little toe on the cat tower. And I broke my little toe. I’m supposed to stay off it for two weeks. How typical that I hurt the uncoolest part of the body. I couldn’t get hurt in a skiing accident. At least I get some nice painkillers.
Anywho, I agree on the arranged marriages. It would be easier, my mom had a good taste, she would have picked out a good husband for me. She was convinced that I should marry Elliott Yamin.

My gf probably wishes I would forget our anniversary, as she doesn’t understand my desire to celebrate every month that goes by. We are coming up on month 13 now, but maybe I should just let that go in favor of valentine’s day celebrations?
