Ladies let us start with your Beastie Boy ways - here is how you are sabotaging potentially great relationships.
Number 1: You gain weight.
Ladies we call it comfort padding. You land us with your hot little beach bodies and then after 4 to 5 weeks of dating, you have added on 10 to 15 LBS and all we are wondering is why? Why can't we take a walk? Why did you stop going to the gym? We met there (full circle - read the article weeks back on places to meet people). So if you want to keep us you need to keep the pounds off...
Number 2: You start talking.
No one likes a woman that pretends to be smart. If you have seen Anchorman then you know that women half a brain half the size of a man's brain, making you ladies half as smart... Do the math - take your shoes off.. Hush, I did not ask for you to talk it up, just add it up... So to keep you up to date - keep off the weight and keep your gums from bumping... No you are cute and quiet - SUPER!
Number 3: Don't ask us to do stuff.
We don't want to go to your friends baby shower. We don't want to see the latest romantic comedy. We don't want to go shopping. We don't want to go to your office holiday party. We don't want to go your friends engagement party. What we want is for you to go to these parties an on the way drop us off at our local bar where we can meet "our" friends, drink cold beer and enjoy ourselves.
Number 4: Granny panties.
When we first met you had the best underwear in the world. After a couple of months you go from lace and dental floss to full back stained green panties that you have had since 1992. And rocking over those gems - some stained sweat pants and a nude colored bra that has both sweat stains and some light tears... Yeah baby that is sexy... Thanks a ton for going all out for me. Don't hate on us for not having to wearing uncomfortable sexy underthings.... This is the world we live in party people, so know your role. Ladies your role - rocking the sexy undergarments and NOT rocking nasty granny panties...
Number 5: Recap...
Usually I would do 5 but to be honest this is a ton of information for you ladies to absorb so we are taking number 5 and we are recapping. In review: keep it slim, keep it short, keep us out of it and keep it tiny...
Now to the lies that we men tell you to make you feel better:
Number 1: You don't look fat in that outfit...
If you have to ask then you know we are going to lie. So don't ask and in turn we will not lie. Plus if you are asking then you already know. If you need a false sense of security than watch Oprah or Wendy Williams. But don't ask us to blow up your self esteem balloon.
Number 2: No she is not that hot...
Stop pointing out super hot women and then asking us if we find them hot. You know we do so why are you making us lie about it? There are at least a half a billion women hotter than you, it is a fact but unlike the egocentric male race you seem care. Just embrace the fact that there are women hotter than you and stop asking us to lie to you and say that you are hotter... You are not hotter - she has a nicer ass than you - she has prettier hair than you - her sexy flat abs are nice... Instead of asking us to lie be happy that you have landed us - give us a or the relationship a compliment...
Number 3: I don't like your mom...
In fact I don't your like your family. I don't like your creepy your uncle. I don't like your boozy over touchy aunt. I hate your mom's southern meets NY style meets Indian food (feather or dot - does not really matter) cooking. I don't like your artist brother. I don't like your lesbian softball playing sister. So stop asking if I like your family cause I don't...
Number 4: I don't care about your day...
You can talk about your day but can you stop expecting us to listen please because we don't care. What we care about is coming home, turning the TV and relax. That relaxation cannot happen if we are hearing about how you and your friend had a misunderstanding on Facebook so then you called her and then you went to lunch and now you are back to BFF's. We don't care...
Number 5: I am sorry..
You are not going to like everything we say. You are not going to like everything we do. So we are going to mess. Some examples: drinking too much with out buddies, missing lunch with you because we got caught up at the strip club, showing up late to dinner with you because happy hour after work ran late, missing shopping with you because we decided basketball with the boys was more important... Whatever it may be, after we make the mistake we are going to say, "I am sorry" but what we don't mean it...
Happy Friday and enjoy the weekend...
