what a girl wants, what a girl needs

It was a strange week for me… Immensely busy yet quixotic and passionate. Somehow, I find romance in work. No, I’m not gay mind you. But in the midst of all my submissions and datelines, I’ve felt no such urge to say, meet a chick or something like that. Weird.

That said, a babe hit on me last night. I guess you can say its pretty flattering. I don’t think she was drunk. I wasn’t in uniform either which makes it all the more shocking. You know she’s is hot when passing guys, old and young, glance and stare. She was one such female. Did I mention, I love power suits, they’re POWER! Ok, I admit, I did look, but I don’t stare, she wasn’t exactly attractive anyway. Pretty yes, attractive no. Somehow I don’t think ladies hitting on guys is attractive in any sense. It makes the gentleman feel good, but ladies shouldn’t be the one doing it.

Anyhow, as she approached she looked (for a quite long time) at me, and I guess our eyes met. Then she flitted right over say 30cm away from me. 30cm, by the way, is way too close for personal comfort. I was taken aback, pleasantly though. She proceeded to play with her hair and glance at me from time to time. So much for being discreet. I’ve had chicks tell me I’m sexy, but for a babe like her to flirt is a FIRST TIME. I’m actually not sexy, I think those girls must be blind/drunk. Oh well, I’m not complaining, am I? haha :) In the end, I got to talk to her and all and she turned out to be a nice girl, she gave me her number too and asked me to call. Hmmm… Still, my dear ladies, if you feel a desperate urge to flirt, maybe do it more subtly and do it with someone sexier.

I’ve been bogged down with work. Work hits me from all 3 fronts. And although I revel in my work, sometimes it gets a bit unbearable and that’s where you’ve got to vent out your anger. Well, I expelled my anger on the store room at work, trashing it to pieces. Haha… its not as if anybody uses it anyway. *sinister laugh*

Sad news is a good friend of mine has just ended things with her man. Very sad. They were together for 4 years. The reason being that they were sick of each other.

Sometimes, relationships can get boring if there’s nothing to sustain them. It shouldn’t by right, but you have to WORK on a relationship. It doesn’t just fall in place automatically. Sacrifices still have to be made and effort shown by both parties. Nevertheless, an advice for the men: If you are attached, do something for your lady. There’s nothing better than to surprise them with flowers one day or cook for them. Just do something out of the ordinary. This will add sugar and spice to your relationship and let your babe know you still feel as fanatically in love with her as you did before you got together. I confess that plenty of guys are unimaginative, but if you happen to fall in that category, don’t stay there, go check the net or learn from your more imaginative contemporaries. It’s WELL WORTH THE EFFORT. Your girlfriend is meant to RECEIVE and you GIVE (majority of the time anyway). Not the other way round. But then again, maybe that’s just how I think, all people are different. From what I know, girls like to pampered so DO IT!

The way to success…. (MOST of the time, not all the time, simply because if the chick finds you repulsive, it’ll be better you buzz off, since your bright sunflowers will look like withered leaves to her anyway)

Ok Jon, i think you rule the planet! Basket ball, in my life there has been no one approaching me to ask me for my number- then again, unless they are asking me for help in the areas of work. Anyway, glad that you had some 'thrilling' moment.

Anyway, on the point on relationships, I agree with what you have mentioned but I'd like to add a point since we're Christians; the relationship that we have with our lady should also surround God.

In a conversation with one of my lady friends, she mentioned to me that in Christian relationships, when you happen to pray with your partner, all the problems that you face will be all laid on the floor, therefore there is no way you can hide anything- this therefore opens up the relationship.

In my opinion, relationships should be open and if you really love that lady, give it all you have to give and vice- versa.

God blesses a cheerful giver. (and lover in this case)

Take care brother! God bless you

yes... with the "asking you for help in areas of work" DOES open up window of opportunity. THough of course you must know who to touch and who not to touch. *wink*

As for openess and frankness, I'm all for that. But not necessarily do all dates end up in marriage. I think it is very important, your mentality. If you have the idea that everytime you go out with a chick, you're gonna end up together well its more than likely you just frighten her off with say, your intensity and passionate desire to get married. haha, that's a bit exaggerated but you do get what i mean.
