The New Dating Rules…according to me!!!

Since becoming single about 6 months ago, I have been going through several life changes.  These changes include improving myself inside and out!  Different hair color, new clothes, working out, etc..  You get the picture.

In these last months, I have been actively dating, and man o’ man, has it been interesting!!  So, yesterday I was at lunch with a good friend and we came up with a set of rules that every young, single woman should adhere to.  I am not the only person in my group of friends that is going through life changes…  So, to my friends who have dumped the dead weight in their life, this is for you too!!  Here goes…

THE RULEZ!

1. No Insta-Fam’s -  Since myself and my friends are childless, it would be best for us to date childless men as well.

2. No Baba Ghanoush -  Due to cultural/religious issues no men of Middle Eastern descent

3. No Peter Pan’s -  No men over 40, there probably is a problem with a man who’s over 40 and never been married.  Let’s be serious here people!

4. No Short-Armed Alligators -  simply put we don’t want me with arms too short to reach their wallet or check.

5. No Self-Employed Consultants -  a Consultant is proper English for “unemployed”, no thanks!

6. No pool boys/gardeners -  pool boys and gardeners make minimum wage, nuff said!

7. No Roommates/Bunk Beds -  if he’s out of college then he shouldn’t have roommates, need I say more…

8. No Left-Handed Pirates -  chronic/secret masturbation, if they’re not man enough to own up, then there is a HUGE problem!!!

9. No Self-Centered Pricks -  we don’t like selfish dickheads!

10. No Couch Commandos -  we don’t like men that can’t het their asses off the freakin’ couch!!!!

There you have it!  If you feel I have left something off this list, hit me back and let me know what you think I should add and I will take it into consideration!!

Have a great day!

Return to Self…

For the past several months, I have been spending a lot of time with the BF.  He got a new job and he had to move, so I’ve been spending a lot of weekends at his house helping him finish his remodeling project.  Needless to say, I’ve been spending so much time with him that I’ve neglected my own friends and my life. 

Now it’s time I return to myself.  It started last weekend, Friday night I attended a friend’s 30th birthday party, solo.  Then Saturday night, I had a girls night out with a couple of my girlfriends from high school.  Oh no, firends, it doesn’t stop there…  This weekend on Saturday, I am going to have another girls day, with another group of friends.  The plan is to spend the day at a frou frou fitness club.  The kind that people spend the day at.  They have an on-site spa, restaurant and pool on the roof.  Then after that, we’re going out for drinks and then dinner.  A very excellent girls day out. 

I’ve also decided to go ahead and book my yearly trip to Greece, without the BF.  He’s been very wishy-washy about booking a ticket and commiting to a date range.  So, I told him the other night that I was going to book my ticket and if he wanted to meet me out there he was more than welcome, however, I wasn’t going to wait for him anymore.  So, THERE!!!

I see that my life is moving on, with ot without me.  I prefer it move on with me!  I’ve decided that I’m going to back off from seeing soo much of the BF.  This summer is my summer.  I don’t want to end my relationship with him, because I love him to death.  I believe that pulling back just a bit and re-entering my life, I’ll be more self-assured and therefore, become more attractive to my BF and myself!!
