but to be honest it was reinforced by my general streak lately...although let's be honest...we've all been there before.
Now...
There is a time when your friends/neighbors/porn store operator tell you, "hey...I know someone perfect for you!!!"
what happens next? well they talk all about the other person (but let's be honest for the most part we just want to know how they look)...anyways...they start telling you..."yeah man...she's....(fill in the blank)" often times they totally hype her up.
So you go on the date and when you go you see them and right there...right in that moment you realize what?
You realize what your friends opinion of you is. HAAHHAHAAH.....
lets say you see the blind date and they are just a freakin FUGLY mix of crap, whip cream and crap cream sauce.
The first thought in your head? "WTF was s/he thinking to do that to me?!?!?"
now every so often you get the friend that hooks you up with someone just absolutely outside your league and world...you see them and know..."OH DAMN...this isn't going to work..but at least for one night I got something hot to look at"
and what is that date thinking? "WTF was s/he thinking to do that to me?!?!?!"
PSYCH!SENSE says that often times our friends are truly a great way to measure not only how they feel about you...but often times, how they see you matching with others. "HUH?" what I mean is that we must consider that our friends match us many times based off of what they feel is the image that we give to them. So blame them? yes a bit...but blame yourself? OH HELL YEAH. Next time you start to go off on the friend...truly think about the type of image and person you have put into their head in the first place :)
you get the point right...it's a funny blog about the best way to find your friend's opinion of you. Now go forth readers! share your opinions of one another!
My best friend asked me if I wanted to set up my older brother with some chick that he knows (and at the behest of his wife). He set it up as "Dude, your brother can just do his thing, get his swerve on and keep on going." His wife set it up as "Lyndon is such a nice guy that he can settle down and be happy" which isn't what he wants as he's a red blooded american male and wants to go out and be a man.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, time came for this date after weeks of apprehension and misdirection by this girl's friends. We all went to bike night at Saddle ranch when they used to have it.
This girl proceeded to trash everything my brother stands for, as a cop by putting down taking risks, hating motorcycles, and just a long stream of angry hateful crap. After we got home, my brother turns to me and says "What the fuck was that shit?"
So I get a hold of my best friend and relayed the message who's wife called my brother to apologize. Lyndon's response was merely, "what did I do to you guys to deserve that?"
