As Told By Me Archives

So this guy you really like, only after a few dates gives you the "I've been thinking" speech. Whether it was the tiniest blunder on your part or something in his world that clashes with yours, he's quick to pull the plug. Since women typically like to use romantic comedies and fiction novels as a reference to their personal lives it's in my best interest to tell you that the men in those movies don't always "think" like men in real life. Generally in a movie when a guy needs some time to think he is automatically ready to pull the plug until minutes before the credits he realizes the bigger picture and they live happily ever after (or at least that's what we always assume). The truth is, when a man uses the phrase "I've been thinking.." nothing good ever really comes after that. Why? When a man (boy, guy or however you want to call him) says they have been thinking it really means "I have confirmed something I have alr...

If there is a poll of most frequent questions googled I wouldn't be surprised if the question "Does he like me?" fall into the top 10. For some reason the older we get it still seems like we run into new ways guys express how they feel about a girl causing us to run to every source possible to find the answer. While some give basic answers such as "he appears nervous" others give the most bizarre hints like "his eyes are dialated". I don't know about you, but there would be no way I'd remember half of the things to look out for when talking to a guy I really like. If anything they would probably think I was crazy because I'm looking into their eyes like a rookie cop or focusing on every body angle instead of listening to what they are talking about. So, with all of that saying, "How do you know when he likes you?" Well the answer is really simple. He wants to know more about you : If he's always asking what you're up t...

We've all been there, after months of pining over "Mr. Perfect", someway or another you either took the shot and asked him out, told him how you felt, or he came to you, and in the end, you got a date with the guy who you thought didn't even know you existed. So why aren't you jumping up and down right now? Chemistery : Yes, for there to be any sort of well anything there has to be chemistry. That means you feel comfortable with that person and attracted to that person, which in this case isn't the issue. STOP! : Society has put rose colored glasses on almost every female to make them believe that all guys want a perfectly polished barbie doll. Before you pull out your emergency credit card for the ultimate makoever realize this important piece of information: HE CHOSE YOU! HE SAID YES WHEN HE COULD OF SAID NO.  No guy (sober) is going to make a move on a girl who may not be the potenti...

I think Gretchen Wilson sang it best when it comes to that one girl who doesn't seem to get the memo that your boyfriend is taken. "She devils", "Maneaters", "homewreckers" however you address them, we have all dealt with it. The mystery is how do you handle this situation? There are at least 4 places girls like this strike. In School: She uses him as an excuses to be her study partner, walks the long way to class just to "say hi" and uses him as her main focus when performing at the school talent show At Work : He's the first person she goes to when something heavy needs to be lifted or when the computer miraculously freezes, Schedules her lunch breaks around his, and is interested in his weekend plans during casual conversation. At a party: Everyone's having a good time till she's had a few drinks from a long beer pong tournament. She's all over your man and suggest he take her out on the dance floor for an innoce...

How is it that what felt like over night, almost every guy in America now spends about 65% of their time pumping themselves up for games such as baseball down to even the PGA Tour. If your the type of girl who respects sports, but has no idea or interest when watching a game then this blog is for you. If you find yourself annoyed when every other status on facebook is about an upcoming game or a players stupidity on the field then you probably also find yourself wanting to run for the hills just to scream for little a relief. But what if you can't escape it? What if that amazing guy you meet is indeed an ultimate sports fan? Not one game has he missed and God forbid you use Harry Kalas's name in vein. You don't want to insult him by not being able to follow his conversation of last nights amazing turn out, and you defiantly don't want to be bored each time the two of you are on the couch during sports center; so the best thing you can do is actually try to learn so...
