I'm not sure at what point in time the good old fashioned dating world changed. However, I'm not too sure I'm happy with the way things have made their turn. Maybe it is the self dependency that women have acquired. Is it the "I'm gonna make money like man, take care of myself like a man and hell fuck like a man" mentality that has gotten us this far? Instead of being asked out on a date I find myself being asked to give a blow job or "let them get it in" (what the hell?? I do not live on the Jersey Shore, no
smashing is going to be happening if you ask that way). Now don't get me wrong, there are times and moments when this type of thing might fly, I just might be in the mood. But good grief is it too hard to say "Hey babe, lets go see a movie and get something to eat" then we can sit awkwardly and stare at one another while we try to come up with suitable topics for a date and hold our clammy hands together and then at the end of the night headbutt one another as we go in for that first kiss. There is a certain charm when you think of those dates and those times to laugh over. Wouldn't it be nice to start the awkwardness off there than naked in a strangers bed?
I guess I'm just confused. Now, if you know me (and I'd say most people reading this don't) I am very very very in touch with my sexuality. I'll talk candidly about my sex life, I'll tell you what I enjoy and what I don't, I'll inform you of things about me that most people wouldn't dare talk about.
But that doesn't mean that I only want to be taken for a sexual object. I am a sweetheart, I'll do the corniest things and I
love to hold hands. Those moments come far and few in between so mostly I prefer to stay single and avoid the whole world of relationships and dating in general. Now, I know all guys are not like this. So trust me when I say that I am not lumping them all together. However it just seems like a regular occurrence.
When I first started this draft I was going through a time period where I was basically dealing with the *ahem* douchiest men I have ever met. They just felt that they were somehow blessed and I should be so grateful they were talking to me and succumb to their every whim. So I decided to delete all of the undesirable numbers out of my phone and start fresh and even try a little online dating.
Let me just say woof (and not like Macaulay Culkin referring to Buzz's girlfriend in
Home Alone) but in terms of the quality of men on the internet. Let's see, common catch phrases include "hey girl, you're so sexxy" or "wud up" and my favorite "you like to fuck?"....uhm I
don't even know what web browser you are using sir I sure as well will not be coming over and letting you have any kind of way with me. So dear readers I pose this question to you. Do gentleman still exits? Do you pull out chairs and open doors? Or is chivalry dead and are women expected to put out on the first date?
