Dating Etiquette

As much as us girls love going on dates with you handsome devils, sometimes you guys just miss a couple MAJOR details. We are honored to be asked my you, but some things are such deal breakers. So, here are some things that I have come across in my dating life, and I hope you gents will learn from your well-meaning mistakes:

1. Call her and ask her out. Ask her in person or send a message via carrier pigeon--anything but texting!

2. You drive. Go and pick her up. Dont make her do soemthing with YOU and then make her come searching for YOU and spend her gas on YOU. If she asks you out, same rules apply to her.

3.Get your butt out of the car and go to the door and get her. Meet her parents if necessary. Dont honk or call, she is not a drive through prize.

4.Open her doors. Being a gentleman goes such a long way!

5. Make sure your personal hygiene is taken care of. Please!

6. Have a plan before hand. None of this "what do you want to do?" and then drive around for 5 hours. Have a plan A, plan B, and if you are extra motivated, a plan C if everything else fails. Be creative, she will probably like whatever you do. On the other hand, dont over plan and cram 10 things into 2 hours...its exahusting.

7. You pay. If you ask her to go with you, you pay. No matter what. Dont complain about paying. Dont ask to share a plate, it makes her feel like she is not worth 9 extra bucks to you. If she is not, stay home next time and spare her the pain.

8.Dont make the first date 8 hours long. AWKWARD!

9.Take her home at a decent hour. She has things to do and cant afford to stay out until 4 in the morning if there is nothing there.

10. Dont try and show off. Just be yourself. That includes chasing cars, getting into fights, speeding and then getting pulled over, and trash-talking people to make yourself feel more secure.

11. Dont expect a kiss. Especially dont demand one(yes that happened to me)

12. Dont let your date walk home. (Also happened to me)

13. Even if you dont like her that much, like if it was a blind date gone bad, or it just 'isnt there', still be respectful. Word travels fast fella's!!!

14. (For the guys)Girls, SAY THANK YOU! Hopefully he tried his best, and at the least deserves some gratitude.


I can only imagine the horrible dates you girls/guys have been on. Im so sorry. Hopefully we all learn from our mistakes and do better next time! Please do better next time!

Texting Etiquette

This post has been on my mind for a long time, and I'm so happy to be finally writing it down. Texting Etiquette. Texting allows for such easy communications, which comes with easy flirting, easy way to hide your emotions, and an easy way be annoying. Annoying. Key word. People can be such an annoyance with their constant, repetitive, one word, texts. So I'm here to lay down the rules:

*note: girls, take notes too. Because we can be just as annoying.

1. Never send a text that only says, "hey" or, "hi".

What am I supposed to say to this? HI? Girls please don't respond to text messages like this. It is most likely a massive text to all the girls in a man's phonebook, or a fowl attempt to start a conversations.

2. The line, "I'll talk to you later", or "Im busy," is not an invitation to start up a new conversation.
Somtimes girls will be bluntly honest with you and say in a matter, "this conversation is over." DO NOT try to start up a new conversations.

3. Sending a text that only contains the letter, "K."
I don't care if I have unlimited texting, I don't want to take the time to open a message in which all it says is, "K" Is it really necessary to send me anything if this is all you are going to say? No. It is not.

4. Sending the same text twice when you get no response to the first one..
This is my biggest pet peeve. PATIENCE! Hell! The girl is either:
A) busy
B) doesn't want to talk to you.
C) Doesn't have her phone.
D) dead.
There is no exception for sending a message twice. I can just hear your thoughts right now, "Well sometimes my phone doesn't send the message." If it didn't, then just wait till she talks to you again, or call her if it is so important. Double texting is not necessary and is definitely a strike 1.

5. Texting a girl every day.
Wow... do you have a life? If a girl is never starting up the conversation then she either not interested or is stingy and won't share the workload of flirting. Give the girl a chance to start the conversation. And if she never does within 2 weeks, give up! She doesn't like you.

6. Smiley faces.
These can be overused. Do not be one of the guys that finds it necessary to smile in every text.

7. Never send a text that has any form of the line, "So what? You don't want to talk to my anymore?"
Please refer back to rule 4 for this one. And no, she probably doesn't.

8. There is no necessity to start up more than 1 conversation within the day. Once again, refer back to rule 4 and 5.

9. Do not send random texts out of nowhere that say things like, "I hate my philosophy test!" Or.. "remember when we kissed to atmosphere?"
hahahahaha. Am I supposed to answer these? I haven't talked to you in 3 months, please don't try to start up a conversation.

10. Do not share your full emotions over texts.
There is a reason we have faces. So we can meet face to face and you can break up with me then. Or tell me how depressed you are. Texts are not meant for emotional loaded sayings.

Well those are the top 10 that I believe are the most important to texting etiquette. Pay close attention to rules 4 and 5. Striking out is very easy in texting, don't ruin your chances by being a retard.

* Men, if a girl doesn't mind when you do this, or SHE does more than 5 of these: she is probably clingy, emotional, and not worth your effort.

** Of course, these rules apply especially to me and.. Im not most girls. :)
Well that's all I got for now. Back to school
