BOYS!!!!!!

If you couldn't tell by the many exclamation points...I say this in an unhappy tone. I recently had a boy send me some "dating tips" as a joke. They were funny, but it has inspired me to write a few of my own tips...some funny, some essential for future success with any breathing female. So girls take heart, boys-take notes :)

1. We are emotional. Sorry but it comes with the package...lip gloss, boobs and tears! You gotta take them all. But in an emotional moment try your best not to talk. Just listen. Nine times out of ten, your advice (good or not) will be ignored because she can't hear you through the sobbing. So just wait for the opportune moment...which is probably the next day. :)

2. Its not about the chocolate or the roses its about WHY you give them. Lets say you say something hurtful...roses won't fix that. You can't fix something emotional with something physical. Try an apology...then some chocolate. And if you're dating a girl who is "satisfied" with the material stuff...she must have REALLY great boobs. Find someone who is worth something and dump the current gf

3. God made man and woman to compliment each other not complete each other. Eve came from Adam's rib, but Adam still functioned without it. Too many guys are looking for the "super-nurturer". Ya know, the girl who will "keep him straight"! This is a personal opinion which I will state like a fact : If you can't stay straight on your own, please do NOT bring your baggage to me. :) I'm all about helping someone become the best they can be, but this is not Extreme Makeover: boyfriend edition.

4. We like making out as much as we like cuddling! Its true. I'm tired of guys getting all the credit for the fire in a relationship. Boys-Find yourself a hot mama (the abstinent ones are best) and she'll keep things happy :)

5. Not every girl is the same...I know that seems contradictory to my listing of "girl rules" but its true. So guys, do us each a favor and realize that we may do or say something WAY different from your last girlfriend. Some girls climb trees...some shop...some talk all day...some say very little. Some are man-eaters...some would do just about anything for their guy. It doesn't make one good or bad, right or wrong. Just different.

6. You need us...whether its your mom, your sister, your wife...a crazy grandma...there is some female in your life that you can't do without. That is because we are great cheerleaders. We're motivators. We teach you to be compassionate. We feed you. lol We love deeply. So yeah, we're pretty awesome. BUT we need you too. This is not a "girl power" speech.

I think I may continue this list in the future. It'll be like "word bash" so you can look forward to future editions.
