Valentine's Day is rapidly approaching ladies! Secure yourself a date!!!!

I have a strong potential! I'm afraid to blog or talk about him!  Plus I never blog about people I respect! I only blog about "losers." This is all I will say about "My potential." It is nice to hear from someone daily and have someone that wants to hang out with you. Plus he is smoking hott! So far so good! 

Crosses fingers, knees, toes, butt checks... What else can I cross? Hair follicles!

What do guys consider a "date?"

I was happy with the results. Most of them said dinner. Thank God!
I guess these guys are reading up on the blog.

Here is how it went down:

Guy
It's a tough question to answer now cause you need to know the girl you are taking out. There are so many standards now

My opinion: I definitely agree. As long as he isn't trying to get me "sloshed" it is all good. Keep my interest as well as his in mind. Meeting an onliner should be more low key than actually knowing the person previously. Onliners should be a coffee shop or quick one drink and go. If you previously know the guy, it should be dinner!

Guy
In that case I would have to say a nice restaurant not "a bar."

My opinion: This guy is right on. :)

Guy
Dinner

My opinion: I had a human sex class with this guy in college. I asked him if he learned that from human sex. His response: Haha no I learned other nastier things lol. I guess he was implying more likely to get action from dinner.

Guy
Taking someone you care for somewhere special!!! Peace&Love

My opinion: I love this guy!

Guy
Going to a bar for drinks lol jk I read your blog lol

My opinion: A reader!

Guy
Get drunk everywhere!

My opinion: A jokester!

Guy 
Take her for some soup with iced tea

My opinion: HaHa I like it! It is original and quirky. Would I always want to go for soup and ice tea? No! But it is original! A brain was required to think this plan out. Does this guy think I'm 97 year old? Maybe~

I would definitely do a guy poll again!
To all the guys that took part thank you in helping us understand your way of thinking!

Billionaire circles back

Really it has been two weeks! Today's text read I guess you forgot about me!
Nothing I hate more than whiney/complaining guy...

I told him you never made the effort to actually pick the date and time to hang out...
Have not heard from him since.
I like this not caring approach. It weeds out the bad seeds automatically ":)"

LivingSocial "That Guy"

So here is what happened with that guy. To make a long story short. We talked via email up until Thursday. I sent the last email stating: "I liked hearing from him!"

N~O~T~H~I~N~G after that! Was it something I said?
LOL- I feel like saying something like that, but I will leave it at that.

Besides he only wanted to hang out at a bar.
I saw him drunk/out of his mind all weekend! Why would he want me to see him in a drunken state again?

If you really like a girl you know to take her to dinner to try and impress.
Put your best foot forward ladies and gentlemen..
The first stages of dating are all about 1st impressions! I was not impressed!

Have fun being the drunkest guy in the bar that guy!~

Junk Drawing

In an effort to find a variety of things to do to fill my time, this week I started a drawing class at the art institute at a local art museum.  I've had an interest in art my whole life, but have never taken a practical class in it, so even though I was very excited, I was also nervous that my inexperience would have me too far behind the rest of the class (and I am much less experienced or practiced than the rest of the class, but I will still learn a lot).

Anyway, the class is "Life Drawing & Anatomy," so I expected that at some point in the class we would have nude models.  But I figured, we would probably learn a few things first, practice a little, and then maybe after a few weeks have models.  I was not expecting to have some dude drop bathrobe not only in the first class, but in the first 10 minutes.  Wow.  And wow.

It's not that I've never seen a man naked before, but there was something about the context that was very odd--he just gets up on a small stage and shows us everything he has with reckless abandon, no bashfulness at all, and we all stare at him for a couple of hours and try to recreate what we see on a piece of paper.  I kept things together to be professional among my peers, but you'd better believe I was giggling inside.  In this first class I was mostly practicing lines of movement and general forms, so not a lot of detail in my drawings, but I am expecting to seriously blush when the day comes that I actually have to sketch some dude's business in detail.

This is going to be a fun class.

Trying to stay positive,

What I learned from this weekend!

I sent this guy I met pictures of him from the weekend.
Here is our email exchange. At first I thought he was in his late 20s, but from his actions through email he sounds about 23. Fresh from college. He doesn't look it though. I really liked his personality. Not that many people have one now a days. He is quirky, witty, and funny. When he wasn't shit-face wasted!

I went away for the weekend with a bunch of people my age on a bus trip.
Here is a piece of our email exchange.

Me: Here are five pictures to remember your weekend.

Him: Haha clearly going to be cherishing these for quite some time (that little video of yours is especially.. interesting). Obviously you're going to have to let me know when we're grabbing a couple drinks

Me: Hey! That guy how are you?
Adjusting to the real world again? Are you still employed? What did your coworkers say? Drinks sound fun!Should I be afraid going for drinks with that guy? (That guy= the one who is drunk all weekend, banging on your door at 3 a.m.bYou have to carry him out of your room because you just want sleep. He then leaves his jacket in your room. You give it to him on the bus the next morning. A bus of 50 people crack up at this situation.
That is that GUY! After you kick him out, you hear him running down the hall saying what room were they (meaning me) in again haha)

Him: Haha I work on a different floor than my coworkers so I have no idea what they've said yet (or my current employment status for that matter). The Hunter thing sounds cool but midtown at 7:30 is a pretty tough sell. Possibly up for further discussion.  We're on for drinks though - let me know when works for you.

Why is he soooooooo fixated on DRINKING?
DRINKS DRINKS DRINKS! It is sooooo A~N~N~O~Y~I~N~G~!
I refuse to go out with any guy who just wants drinks. He is just trying to get in your pants and/or is cheap! I saw this guy super drunk alllllll weekend.
Why, oh why would you want to go for drinks again? Is he that clueless?

Any guy who just wants to take you for drinks is a loser!

LivingSocial!

Girls, get out there on a LvingSocial trip.
Miss Realist and I went this weekend on a ski vacation! It was amazing on a scale of 1-10 I give it a 25!! We had such a great time! So many different people to meet! Our roommate was in her 40s and on a quest for the youngins.
You can meet all kind of people on these trips. If you're looking for the "bang," he is there! If you're looking for the good time, he is there!
If you're looking for the relationship...
Not sure if he is there, but I'll let you know. ;)

Until our next LivingSocial adventure..we will be going on more!

Skeptic, get your ice shoes ready! Our next adventure is climbing up ice or something like that! Can't wait! I will being posting my adventures on the CRRC wall as well.

Ew Ran into my Ex round 2

I was going to the gym today!
I saw him driving by in his brand new spanking car!
This guy goes though cars like an morbidly obese person goes though the McDonalds drive though window.

I must remind myself of all of his terrible qualities..
1. Thinks he is a know it all
2. Takes longer to get ready than me
3. Emotionless
4. Shadey
5. Goes missing in action for a few days
6. Forgot my birthday not once, but twice
7. Cheap
8. Lies
9. Unpredictable
10. Unreliable
11. In love with his sister.
12. I barely met his parents after a year of dating
13. I laughed at him, not with him!
& Much Much More!

His postive quality from today~
1. Nice body!

Ok now that I made this list he looks terrible again on paper...
Ladies this is what you need to do when you see an ex..
Stay AWAY from them! Run away!

Pointless texting! What is the point?

Me: Hello... I just wanted to say "hi"
(I also tried to make this post super strange and awkward for shits and giggles)
Billionaire: LOL you are so so cute and sweet
Billionaire: Hi

Why would a guy need these types of texts? HaHa I think it is funny though.

Unavailable

If you are unavailable (physically or mentally) in any way shape or form...
Do not try to bother and waste my time.

<3 Disbeliever disbelieving 24/7

Here we go again! The Billionaire sends me the desperate text.

$ Bags~ Hi Disbeliever just wanted to say Hi, I don't know if you want to continue talking to me or not, but if you don't want me to bother you please just let me know. Hope all is well. May 2012 bring you all you want.

Me~ Happy New Year to you toooo! Thank you the same for you as well. Why do you feel you're bothering me?
(I just wanted to see his answer... Don't really care what he says.)
$ Bags- I know we have busy schedules and all I always seem to reach out to you and I at times feel that maybe you don't want to bother
Me~ Sorry! Are you saying I should reach out more?
$ Bags- No but a "hi" and "bye" will suffice. :)

Me~ That is a yes then! Didn't even realize. I got so caught up in the holidays. I'm going to VT this weekend toooo. Did you ever go to Colorado?
$ Bags~ Yes it was a short weekend lol but I had a blast. Looking forward to seeing you sometime in 2012 (winky face/ kissy face) We can share our stories! (I don't even care to hear his, but whatever.)
Me~ Is that a kissy face and most definately.
$ Bags~ I meant to say seeing you lol (Repeat! He said this twice.)

Me~ Ok sounds good.....

We have a Circle Back!

I don't know how it happened!

For starters, I'm brand spanking new to the I-phone. I got a massive text list of everyone wishing everyone a Happy New Year! I just responded by Happy New Year hottie. It was a joke! I had no idea what was going on. I think I hit reply all when I sent my response. I had no idea even who it went to. I got a few text messages today saying "Who are you? Who is this?" I just erased them. I don't know! No need to stress it. But I went on the world's worst date with this one guy. He circled back because of this text! I was nice to him because I thought he was someone else.

I just got a new phone so keep that in mind. I got rid of a lot of people! Not to mention I got rid of him after he was such a "wonderful person."

Here is our convo.
I wound up asking who this is when I realized I wasn't talking to who I thought I was talking to.

Guy: When you find out who this is, you're not going to want to talk to me anymore.
Me: Probably not so let's get this over with
Guy: LOL it is ........... Well if you don't want to talk to me I will understan,d but I still don't know why we can't be friends, talk, and hang out.
Me: How did you start talking to me? I'm so confused as to why and how this happened!! Where did you come from?
Guy: HaHa Oh geez. Listen, some way some how last night you sent a mass text saying Happy New Year hottie. I thought you had deleted my number, but I guess you still have me saved as your contacts. So I text you earlier and we been talking so yeah that's all.
Me: No you def are not on my phone I can assure you that if I sent a mass text out determinately a big mistake. I just got the I-phone and have no contacts, especially not you as a contact! You make me sick to my stomach and I think you're a horrible person.
Guy: HaHa you don't even know me and you think that about me? I don't think that is fair for you to run your mouth and talk about me like that but it's ok if it makes you feel better about yourself. I got the 4s tooo I love Siri I used it all the time. How about you?
Me: Crickets.. Crickets...

So ladies do not ever get upset if a guy circles out of your life or breaks up with you. They ALWAYS come back!

I will now practice my resolution as to not fight with anyone that I do not have to see ever again!

Ew I ran into my Ex!

When I saw him I had a seizure-like attack saying "UGH" the whole time.
He definitely saw this being that we made eye contact.

First of all: Who do you think you are coming to my gym?

Maybe he has my birthday gift? He forgot my birthday not once, but twice. The last time I saw him was on my birthday. He said he had a gift, but gave me nothing. He later called a year later trying to get me back. I proceeded to tell him if he keeps calling I will call the cops! He even tried to get me outside saying I can beat him up for the pain he caused me. It was tempting to say the least, but I'm not the psycho beat your man/former man type.

You effing lunatic!

Hopefully I will not see him anymore at my gym. I know he uses week passes and that is it. He never actually joins a gym! Join a gym you cheapo, just not mine!

The Time of Resolutions!

Here is the book I am raving about!
Sorry it took so long to post, but I was holidaying.
What did I learn from this book?
Well first of all, I DO NOT want to get married this year! I picked up three books to skim while I was at Barnes and Noble. I started with this book and read 130 pages! I did not make it to the others!
It is divided into three sections: 1st section working on yourself, 2nd section finding the guy, and 3rd section maintaining the relationship.

I pulled a lot of information from this book. I needed some reinforcement on dating information! Can you be too independent? I'm an independent woman to the max! Beyonce should have had me as the main star in her video. I'm so independent, so why would anyone be able to see themselves with me? Or how can they? I do not give them the chance. On the first dates I'm giving them a run down of of my life not making anytime for someone else. I even went out with a guy this summer. He wound up asking me where a guy would fit into my life? I had no answer to his question. I never even mentioned wanting someone to this "potential." Of course I will still have my independence, but I will try not to advertize it on a super sized billboard in Times Square now.

What else? Should I try online dating? I feel like it is too desperate!
Although according to this book, it should be a paid site. I never wanted to go on a paid site, but it makes sense to me. The serious types are on paid sites. The quick bangs are on the free sites. I'll toy with the idea of going on a paid site because it does feel kind of desperate.

I will try speed dating! Anyone want to come? You go on mini dates each last for about five minutes. If they suck, then onto the next one in five minutes. I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE this idea! I will try it and report back on my findings. Anyone want to come?

It also said extroverts should seek out introverts. NO! WAY! I cannot seek out an introvert! In fact I'm highly annoyed by introverts. No way can I date an introvert. I'd love to meet the author here. This is where I disagree! Communication styles are tooooo different. You need the same type of communication style for a relationship to work. I just can't grasp introverts! Extroverts all the way!

I highly recommend this book! You will determinately be able to learn something from it! So go give it a read though! Just hide the title.

Happy New Year!

"Just" Friends

There seems to be something I'm plagued with that I just can't shake--guys that I'm friends with, in whom I have absolutely no romantic interest at all, seem to always have crushes on me.  Thankfully, only a couple of them have actually acted on it, which forced me to very awkwardly let them down and strain our friendship.  But I am constantly worried about the other ones, hoping that they won't ever try anything that would ruin our friendship and put me in a very awkward position.  And hoping that they'll get over it and move on.

I've been thinking about this another way recently, though.  It sometimes seems unfair that the ones I have no interest in become infatuated with me, and I can never seem to work anything out with the ones that I like.  But think about it--with these friends, I basically label them in my mind as "safe" and let my guard down, acting like myself with more confidence and warm spirit than I would with the guys I like, with whom I'm likely more often nervous, shy, and awkward.  Clearly the confidence is more attractive, and maybe I'd have a better chance if I could learn how to maintain sanity and composure around those who make my knees weak.

Heh.  Still haven't cracked the secret code to making that happen, but let me know if you figure it out.

Trying to stay positive,

Skeptic
