Damn Boys

Since when did Damn Girl become a compliment?

As you know, I'm doing the online dating thing right now. I got a message last night.

"Damn girl. You fine. Holla at me 903-xxx-xxxx"

That's just unacceptable. I can assure you, he didn't read anything on my profile. He saw my pictures and sent me the above message.

I posted this to my facebook page and one of my friends had a very good point. There's no more courting in the world.

I want a man who will take charge. For the first date, I want him to make plans. Yes, I'm looking for a partner but I'm still an old fashioned girl at heart. I want a man to be able to take charge when need be. It's an immediate turn off to me if I have to initiate every single plan made. Yes, I do love to cuddle on the couch while watching tv, but sometimes it's nice to have other plans made for you.

Is a little romance just not in the cards for me? Do you know I've never gotten flowers? I don't need 2 dozen long stemmed red roses. A 5 dollar bouquet from the grocery store would absolutely make my heart melt and not to mention, make my clothes fall off faster than a fifth of tequila.

Fellas, in the world of romance grand gestures aren't needed. It's truly the little things. I want to be courted. I want someone to work to gain my heart, my trust, my love and my body. I want someone who actually thinks I'm worth taking the time to woo.

  1. Agreed!

    Planning, flowers, writing skills- are they too much to ask for?

    I was dating an older man 'till recently and one thing I liked was he always opened the door. He wasn't perfect in all ways (err the recently part) but now that I'm dating others, I wonder, do men put age open the car door and put you in, or is this a lost art??? Alison L wonders....

    Is he trying to rape the English language? That would have been a delete right there. He didn't want a relationship, he wanted a booty call. Hold out for everything you want. You deserve every single bit of it. Every woman does. My husband use to open the car door for me and give me his hand when I was getting out of the car. After 5+ years that has kinda come to a stop. He tosses the keys across the roof of the car for me to unlock my own door now. WTH is up with that?
