She's Just Not That Into You


Hopefully you've read the book or saw the movie "He's Just Not That Into You," because what I'm about to say should sound familar but with a twist.

Guys often make moves that don't make sense and sometimes they make moves that freak girls out. If I have to ask, "Who's the girl in this relationship," then you need to back up.

If we've just met and you're getting serious a little too quickly, then you need to back up. If I answer your texts and not your calls, well then you figure it out.

Don't assume all girls are the same and do not assume everyone is into you.

Let me cut to the chase, guys, if she want's you she'll make it happen. If a few weeks pass and you're going nowhere...she's just not that into you.

Jon and Hailey Plus ?

So while we're on the subject of young girls, why is 22-year-old Hailey Glassmen dating Jon Gosselin? He's not that rich and he's not that big of a celebrity.


I mean let's think about it, he's getting a public divorce and he has eight children. He has eight children, he has eight children, he has eight children!

No offense to all the men out there taking care of their kids but, if I'm 22 I don't want to be around one child let alone eight.

The sex can't be that great, can it?

We Need to Talk Young Girls

I love my generation but sometimes I don't get us. Why are we the ones who "fall in love" in high school and think it will last forever?

I was watching the Wendy Williams Show and a 18/19-year-old asked Wendy what should she do about her boyfriend of 3.5 years who broke up with her because he knows they'll get married and he wants to have his fun now.

What the hell was she talking about? "Was she serious,: I asked myself and then I remembered that I've heard that story many times before, from my own friends. And all the times I've heard it I've had to pretend as if I believed the crap that was coming out of their mouths. What I really wanted to say was, "You're not going to be together next week, let alone in 10 or 15 years."

Young girls, myself included (occasionally), think realistically and GET IT TOGETHER!

The Perfect Mix


Yesterday, I was listening to the "Wendy Williams Experience" and a woman called in to ask where she should go to meet Mr. Right. Williams didn't recommend any specific places because Mr. Right could be anywhere but, what she did recommend was opening her options through other cultures.

You would have thought Williams said "Yo Momma," to this woman. She was super opposed to the idea.

However, her reaction opened my eyes to how closed-minded women can be and then they complain when they are man less. There's a perfect solution to that problem: stop being so damn picky. Thinking outside the box is how we broaden our horizons, it's when we shut down that we create problems.

If you open your mind and your heart, you just might surprise yourself.

Perfect Future

I was able to sleep in this morning but it didn't really work. Instead I watched an episode of one my favorite shows "Charmed". Throughout the episode one of the sisters desperately tried to get some knowledge into the future.

In the end, her father said something that made sense; he said not to worry about the future and to live now.

Its a great piece of advice for the day because the younger we are, the more we worry about what the future will hold but, all we can do is live now.

Our family and friendships, our careers and even our love lives get in the way. I'd like to challenge everyone: this weekend, for two days don't worry about the future. Don't think of Monday or September or next year, just live in the now.

Life just might be a easier, at least for two days.

Perfect Pride In Tact

Last week I shared a horrific experience about my mother trying to set me. For the better part the week my mother asked if I wanted to attend her company picnic in which I'd meet this boy.

After last year's picnic, where I was not at all entertained, I had already made up my mind not to go. And because I was already embarrassed by the matchmaker, I definitely was not going to go.

Like I said before, there's something more romantic about meeting by chance and it doesn't hurt the ego to know someone might actually like you for you.

By the way, my mother told me yesterday that he didn't even show up for the picnic. (Does that really matter?)

Not Another Bad Date


Last night I finished reading "Not Another Bad Date," by Rachel Gibson. It was utterly entertaining and somewhat lustful. I had a really great time reading it but, I also had a really great time relating to the main character.

Obviously, I'm not a 35-year-old woman who thinks her biological clock is "tapping her on the shoulder" but, I am a young woman who like most, thinks she's cursed in the relationship department.

We can all relate in someway to having bad dates, bad relationships or just plain old bad luck. When you think you've found the right guy, one of you always manages to screw things up.

I won't tell you what happens in the end, but I will say good things come to those who wait.
