Guys and Girls

Okay, this is never happening again. I never post two times in one day, much less two times in one month. However, my motivation has hit a new low. I am currently about 5000 feet above sea level and my motivation is on the bottom of the Dead Sea.

My friend and I were talking last night about how sensitive we want guys to be. Sure it would be wonderful and great to have the guy notice a the new haircut, the new shoes, or even when you are a little down. However, too much would just get too annoying. I need my guy to be guy through and through. He notices when I look cute and pretty, but I could care less if he noticed that I cut one inch off my hair. Of course, on my head, I would have to cut off about six inches for anyone (including females) to notice. I want my guy to watch sports and yell at the screen on occasion. I want him to have some knowledge about cars and to be able to work hard in the yard (with or without a shirt on!). I want him to be athletic and love to get out there and sweat, especially with me (I am only talking sports!). He needs to appreciate a good workout and yet still know how to clean up nicely. He needs to be nice and considerate and hopefully know how to cook because I fail in that area. I want him to notice me and to want to be around me, but still likes to go hang out with the guys. He can even play Halo on occasion, as long as he lets me play even though I suck at it.

Wow, I did not know that I had that many requirements for a guy. These are not actually requirements, so rest easy my future mate. My whole thing is that I want the guy to love me and notice me, but to still be all man. Some women may want sensitive guys, but I understand that guys and girls are wired differently, so when I want a guy I go to him, and when I want a girl I go to my sister or a friend. Too much estrogen is something that is too easy to come by I am afraid and so, therefore, I want a man.

Girls are mean, they have too many pet peeves, and they hold grudges. Girls expect others to always think of them and to do nice things for them. They don't understand that their boyfriend may want to have some alone time or hang out with the guys. Girls want everything to go their way and they talk and over analyze everything. Girls love talking about guys, guys they hate, guys they like, guys that they use for favors, guys that they don't like but don't want other girls to date. Girls want things done when they want them done and things done they way they want them to be done. Girls are also caring and sensitive and notice your shoes and your new haircut. Don't get me wrong, I don't hate girls, after all, I am one of them. I am just saying that sometimes it is nice to get a break and to hang out with the guys.

Guys communicate with grunts (or Wookie-speak) and they are interested when BYU brings in a different (terrible) quarterback. They won't listen when football is on and they don't really care who is around at any specific time. Unless, of course, the girl or guy is really annoying and they can't stand it anymore. Oh and guys eat, a lot. I made the mistake of leaving ice cream in my friends apartment and three guys consumed almost a half gallon of ice cream. They love food and don't complain about their weight - they do something about it. Guys can also give good advice. It is nice to see there perspective on things (especially when other guys are the topic of the conversation). Also, guys take out the trash.

All in all, guys and girls are a good mix. Too much of one can get annoying. I enjoy all my friends, male and female.
