Rules of dating…

I went on some dating websites last night to do “research”, (yea right) and it seems that there are still stupid rules for dating. Now this applies to both men and women and so I was reading them.
Interestingly enough, they had completely different points of view. The guy rules focused on being presentable. You know, shower, have nice shoes on because women notice and that kind of shit. It also told them to open doors and be polite.
WTF????? Don’t all guys know to fucking take a shower and smell nice? Do they need a rule for that?? Maybe I haven’t been the unfortunate one to go out with a stinky man?? Maybe they do need that rule and I just didn’t know it! Anyway, the guy rules had to do with hygiene and stuff and I found it very fluffy.
Now, get to the girl rules. All the girl rules had to do with playing games with the boys heads and being manipulative. Again, WTF?????? I guess people know that women are smart enough to shower and we obviously know about nice shoes, but in order to get a guy I have to ignore him for 3 days before I send an email or call him back? Why the fuck do I want to do that? Maybe it’s to make them into a hunter and get them to persue me. I am also supposed to be evasive in my answers about myself to create mystery. BTW, these rules were from the same website, so obviously the same moron came up with them for both men and women.
You know what, they guys rules are sooooo much easier. I don’t want to be evasive, I’m a blurter! I like to blurt out whatever comes into my little noggin whenever it hits! Hahahahah! Maybe why I’m still single??? Hmmmmm… I want the easy rules too! I’m not interested in playing games at my age, maybe the rules were written by a 20 something for the 20 something crowd. When you get to be my age, I appreciate the open, honest answers with humor please. I’m going to let you know if I like you, let you know if I don’t and screw the 3 day rules and the 3 date rule too.
But in case you want to know, showerin before the date is not optional, if you think it is, please don’t call.

I never get past the shock of how bad people lie on their profile. Living in San Diego for over 20 yrs, I know A LOT of people. I get irritated when I see people take 10 yrs off their age and 30 lbs off their weight and then lie about how uncomplicated and drama free they are (always a warning sign to me). IM very honest about my stats and age, and make no bones about being who I am. The problem: since lying is the norm, most people assume im 48 (not 38) and 30 lbs overweight.
This entry also reminds me of one of my guilty pleasures. I love reading vintage women’s magazines. There is nothing more fun than reading articles on “how to get your man” from the 1950s. YOU got your man and kept him by following simple rules like: Always laugh when he says something funny, always smile when you are in his presences, hang on to ever word he speaks, and never say anything bad about someone else. It all makes sense why all those women got addicted to valium the following decade.
