Men are so confusing.....

Men constantly complain that women are the confusing ones...WRONG!!! Men are. after spending two straight weekends of QT at a local bar with a few of my friends, and dicussing man problems,I have noticed there are different levels and types of male created confusion. (and this isn't just guys at the bar either)

Example 1: The guy who waits four years after you get over him to finally ask you out. The problem? He has been married 3 times already, has 1-5 kids, and more one night stands than I have appendages.This guy also makes it sound like you are all that has been on his mind. If he has been sooooo interested all of these years, why didn't he ask you out before now? mmmhmmmm ya, i don't think so.

Example 2: The pimp. this isn't necessarily a ghetto pimp, or a thug, just the guy who feels he has to be over manly or touchy feely to get your attention. struts up to you like he is hot and thinks you should melt.I actually had one of these slow dance with me and start rubbing my arms and stuff on the floor. He proceded to follow me around the bar and creep me out to the point of hunting down my example 3.

Example 3: The "I don't know If I am really interested" guy. I gave this one guy my # and he called, but my phone died mid convo. no reply. I called him the next night to apologize but he didn't answer, so I left a message and gave up. He messages me later to tell me he still wants to do something so I give him my schedule. no reply. Then I run into him the next friday. I ignore him figuring he's not interested. so he walks up and starts talking to me, I talk to him, I ask him to save me from a stalker (see example 2) and all is cool. I get the last dance with him, tell him I'm interested, and if he's not its cool, get even more mixed vibes and haven't heard anything since.

Example 4: The old guy. This actually has to be one of the least confusing of the man scenarios. It never fails, 100% of the time, a woman will have atleast one man (sober or not) Hit on her persistantly who is atleast old enough to be her dad. There are 2 main things that make this one confusing. One is why on earth someone in her early twenties would regularly seek out a bald heavy man in his mid 40's with kids her age for reasons other than money. Number two is why they don't understand no. You tell the guy over and over "sorry, I'm not interested" and he takes it as "hey! grab my butt!!!!"

Example 5:The great guy with the nasty girlfriend. This can be any kind of nasty, from promiscuous, to abusive, to bad hygeine. I think everyone knows that guy who is sweet, hardworking, attractive, and committed to the worst excuse for a girlfriend/wife ever. this type really confuses me because if I wasn't happy with someone and I didn't have kids, I wouldn't be bending over backwards just so they could hurt me more. Thats something NO ONE deserves to go through.

See? with women, it's easier. There is either yes, no, or the maybe that means no...and you know when the maybe means no. So, my biggest piece of advice for any single men out there is just to be yourself and go for it! Tell a woman whats on your mind and don't keep her guessing!
