*** a girl full of yada yada ***

* boys are ridiculous*

ha!!
really...
i am stunned by a good 75% of them!!
the ones i have as friends are so amazing!!!
what happened to the single ones
that i run into
?!?!?!?

i thought dating would be much different from dating in my early 20's

wishy washy in your 40's .....
really?!?!?!

men
unsure of who they are
what they
want
need
desire

i have dated men who turn out to be
~ OUTRAGEOUS liars
~ demanding of time
~ demanding of me
~ color their hair
* this is seriously bizarre to me *
* i love silver streaked hair on men think george clooney *
~ have called me
"a leaky bucket"
because i order diet coke with dinner
~ turn out to be bullies
~ have no integrity
~ think they can buy me
~ are upset when i don't get jealous
~ are upset when i do my own thing
~ insist i can't be happy
~ insist i hate my ex-husband
~ even one that ate ice cream knowing their
lactose intolerant!!!
yeah...seriously gross huh?

****don't worry i moved on****

one of the strangest things i have noticed
if i am kind... pay attention ... listen...
ignore their drama
*yes men you add silly drama*

be a friend

they assume
obsessed

yes
* images of glen close
scariest female actress in history
movie "fatal attraction" flashs through
my head
she scares the hell out of me *

now with me....
i chatter
be it text... phone... whatever
*chatterbox*
so it is not unlikely to get a random text from me
saying basically
NOTHING
*Ex: remind me to take the bowling ball outta the
back of my truck it's rolling around & driving me nuts!
*Ex: ooo look to the east it looks like the Simpsons sky
*Ex: :P
*Ex: balloon boy cnn hurry turn it on!!!

apparently
translated in mens minds
* she loves me *

no matter how many times you gently use the word
friend
they don't believe you

so i ask.....
*are men STILL unable to have friendships with women?
*do they believe that they are not
worthy/capable of just a friendship?
*have they all fell victim to those terrible women on
bridezillas
**a program i admit to being amazed by**
~ demanding
~ emasculating
~ obnoxious
~ insecure

have we as women ruined them??
*that seems silly...i give them more credit ...
men haven't ruined
US
**
bad relationships....
bad marriages...
what the hell happened????

when i was married i didn't have to worry about
being misunderstood
with a comment or compliment
to a male friend
but
now being single ..
I DO
!?!?!?!

did my wedding ring actually work as a buffer??
she's married its all good?
with affairs & divorce rate
i doubt it

i have to learn to really curb my thoughts...
comments
behavior
and
this
is
VERY
difficult for
me!

i am the little sister of 3
i go into
* little sister pest mode *
when misunderstood
it's a syndrome
i'm self diagnosed

i will pester you with hellos
&
yada yada
even if i sense you think i'm totally digging you

i continue on with the friendship until you
loosen up & figure out
that's all it is

* me *
a girl full of
yada yada

&
yes
i admit
.. it fascinates me ...
men your reactions to
kindness
thoughtfulness
friendship
fascinating

******
...sincerely...

your pesky friend
