68. Match.com (kinda)

As I was pulling the dry cleaning for a random customer I saw this really hot girl. Now she was "YUMMY!" (it's in quotes because I actually said it out loud)

I work up the courage to ask her out....and wouldn't you know it...she said yes. Wow right? well...don't get too excited...it sucked. but it's okay...I met another hot girl at 7 eleven as I was restocking....we went out...and BAM!!! it sucked too. So after about 8 dates I realize....dating is hard.

I can hear the invisible readers screaming at me...DUH!!! of course it is. The question that arose was...."who is it harder for?" think about it ...playing the typical male i'm gonna say...it may be harder for the guy. yeah yeah...yell at me later when you guys see me again.

Although this may be a bit of a generalization I have found that guys are expected to pick up the tab on the first date. if not then you have the girls going back to their girlfriends saying, "oh my god...he couldn't even pay for our double cheeseburgers..." you know it's true. with that being said, after about 8 dates...what happens? the guy is out that much money! but at least 7 lucky girls and 1 lucky guy got a free meal (don't ask, don't tell). So anyways, it became clear that although the guy paid for the meal...he must wait for the girl to respond. How interesting right? if the guy actually works up the courage to ask her out...pay for something and wait anxiously at her door stop hoping for a little tongue action we have to think..."damn...is she gives me the chance...i'm all over that." women pace us!!!! ugh...hahah...the relationship moves forward when she is ready. intersting.

An interesting development occured as I was talking about this with some colleagues at the local pub...we have a gay guy come in and say..."well, I go by the rule that if they ask me out...they pay...if I ask them out...I pay." Now that is intersting...So because the guys asks the girl out...it is then his responsiblity to pay for the first/second date. cool right?

As I asked every guy around the pub how many times they have asked a woman out the general response was, "oh I don't know...a lot...been turned down a whole lot more than i've tried too" (don't figure that one out.) the next question was, "well then gentlmen...how many women have actually asked you out?" hahahaha...you can imagine the response..."uhm....I think my tia (aunt) asked me out once for coffee...but she just wanted me to co-sign on a loan for her...." other than one hot guy "because well...he's hott" every other guy said, "yeah it doesn't happen."

when asking the women the same question they all said, "I would NEVER ask a guy out...NEVER!" hahah...
