I had an interesting “experience” last night. First I want to say I mean no offense because the person I am talking about is a friend of a friend. I just feel compelled to share my stories every now and again…So the night began at a local bar in the company of my friend and his friend, let’s call him Joseph because that’s what I thought his name was anyways lol. So Joseph was flirting big time from the time I got in the car to when we were at the bar. You know, laying it on real thick “You’re a gorgeous girl” “You really got it together” which, believe me, makes me feel great, like I’m 20 feet tall. However, I can tell when someone is saying those things just to say them, like I’m going to eat it up and fall in love with them. So Joseph begins to say how he is not really into looks when it comes to girls and that it’s important for a girl to have a brain too. Uh huh. Then the 3 of us begin to talk about what is attractive to us from the opposite sex. They asked me to point out a guy in the bar that I found attractive. This was easy for me because there wasn’t anyone. Again, no offense to Manchester, I’m just not in that “hunter” mode. I’ve had a serious love affair with “pretty” boys as my friends like to say, but I like someone who is the prettiest of all pretty boys . Anyways, I’m getting side tracked. So I mention that I felt like there were a few good looking girls there and pointed out one to them. Immediately I was told I had horrible taste in women and that the chick I selected was a “Denny’s” girl or something like that, unfamiliar to me. So I make a comment about a girl that they had picked out because my friend said she had a cute body but not a cute face so I said “butter face”. Then Joseph asks me what he should do to meet a girl. Not knowing that he was being sarcastic, I answered him. Then he gets defensive and says “like I’ve never met a hot girl before. You are one of those girls who are into materials.” Whoa whoa whoa. For anyone who knows me, this is point when my head begins to do a 360 move, steam is shooting out of my ears, and my eyes are glowing red. Not to digress, but let me put this into perspective for you. I have been dealing with enough bullshit in general, I hadn’t gone out in like a month, and I just had a Jager bomb and a tall Bud Light. It was the prime environment for a throw down. Anywho, being the sarcastic person I can be I respond by saying “Yes I am materialistic” (of course not true at all! and I was being totally sarcastic) then I say “You don’t even know me. For one, being into someones looks is not being materialistic, it’s being shallow. Two, you ASKED me for my opinion so don’t get mad when I tell you the truth. Obviously your method isn’t working for you because you just told me you are divorced and just got of a relationship with a ‘psycho’ girl that is blowing up your phone right now.” IN YO FACE HOOKA. One point for me, negative 15 points for him. So my poor friend is trying to maintain the peace and directs the conversation to another topic. Like 5 minutes later this dude is stewing about what I said because he makes a random comment “I bet if you compared the girls I’ve dated to the guys you’ve dated there’d be no contest.” I decided to let that one go. It really boiled my blood because this is the same guy that said he wants a girl with beauty and brains but as soon as he was around one that did (me) he was acting like a threatened animal, cornered in a cage with their fangs and claws out. I find that to be the case most of the time which is sad. I’ve never been one to play dumb or agree for the sake of agreeing which can be very challenging to guys and people in general. Oh and then he asks the dumbest question ever “Why are you single?”. Shut the hell up. Who the eff knows? Like it’s my fault or something. My theory: The guy was attractive for his age. He must be used to having young girls on his jock. When Mama (me) wasn’t following suit he had to “take me down a peg”. He kept making comments like “I know you like me”. Playa puh-lease. He liked ME.

And thus he provided the answer to his own question of why I’m single: because guys like you still exist. Then he also accused me for having too high of standards for guys. Well you at least I have standards and there appropriate for me as they should be for everyone. Never settle

And no I don’t generalize, so this does not apply to ALL guys and I do know that there are nice guys which is why I’m hopeful.
