#NerdsUnite: My name is Alicia and I'm doing 50 dates in 50 states (Missouri)
Quiet, unimposing and rather unassuming, Jake was anything but typical for a first date that was going to be filmed. Admittedly, while the men I’ve gone out with have been unique snowflakes, if they were books we were studying in literature class we’d be able to pick out a theme through them all: outgoing.
#Question: Do You Have Jessica Rabbit Syndrome?
Have you ever looked at someone and thought that he/she just looked mean? Or saw a beautiful woman out who looked angry, but after talking to her you realized that she was actually cool? I call that the Jessica Rabbit syndrome. This is about giving everyone a chance and not judging a book by its cover.
#RealDeal: How LOTR's put me in the "Friend Zone" & why it's awesome
Having nothing else to do on a Saturday night I found myself catching up on some of Jen's older posts, specifically about her past dates and relationship. I guess I found myself doing this as I have been recently hanging out (yes...just hangin’) with a specimen of the female variety which I thought may lead to some type of relationship, which in the end didn't (but more on this latter).
#RealDeal: Quit being awkward, start being awesome (the story of the Wells Fargo Hottie)
As I walked down the street going into the bank I could hear the displacement of air from all of the heads spinning. My outfit was a really, really, big hit as I received multiple compliments just walking those few steps. I freaking LOVE living in West Hollywood! The men are so complimentary and when you look good they make SURE you know it!!!
#ThatAwkwardMomentWhen: You're at a karaoke bar in Koreatown and Kiefer Sutherland walks in ...
See, this is my issue ... based on commercial attraction and mathematical symmetry of my features, I NEVER have a problem getting a dude ... but keeping them from wanting to punch me in the face before the end of the night isn't always easy. I'm EXTREMELY opinionated, and at bars guys genuinely don't care to hear it.
I kept dancing.
Float like the feather, be free and fuck everything else, I thought.
#EpicFail: Remember that one time a super gorgeous guy hit on you and you froze? Yeah. Good job.
He then steps out of line and walks around behind the counter. I try not to stare but my eyes have a mind of their own and have already decided that the hunt is on, and MAMA LIKES!!!
I wait in line for a minute or two longer as I stare at him wondering who he looks like.
He's a perfect blend of Ian Smoldehalder ....
#Fact: You get there by realizing you are already there
I just want to be successful. By my own definition. Not by what my family thinks, friends, scorned lovers ... I want to feel like I have contributed something to the world and if I were to die tomorrow I could feel like my time spent wasn't wasted. That to me is success.
#Fact: I don't listen to the words that come out of a woman's mouth
Sure you may need to listen to her words if there is data being transferred but most of the time you speak to a woman, she is speaking from emotion–I think we can all agree on that–so I have been playing around with some ideas and seeing great results. I once read somewhere that, “A woman will tell you everything you need to do to sleep with her if she’s attracted to you, and all you have to do is listen”. I truly believe this, so you’d better hone your listening skills.
#DatingDetox: It's done, but now what?
It's all so frustrating, and never ending. Google says I'm the "worlds best girlfriend" yet the only relationship I've had for the last 6 years has been in this last month and required watering once a week.
#Question: Why Is She Not Returning My Calls Or Texts?
Just because you have nothing else going on, does not mean that she doesn’t. Women have very active social lives. They are in high demand for events, parties, dates and friends. Look at the typical girl’s Facebook page. She has her own career, possibly school and her own social life that existed before she ever gave you her number. You think that just because you had an innocent flirty exchange and managed to get her number that she’s been thinking about you since? Guys let’s be realistic here. Girls give out their numbers a lot. Sometimes, they do it just to get you to leave them alone.
