So let me say first, hoping that I’m speaking/writing within some invisible, online no-judgment zone, that I have dated every flavor of thug — the sensitive thug, the angry thug, the quiet storm (just like WBLS in every way) and after a period of being young and dumb, I decided to get it together and search for a nice guy.

"I'm hitting the wall and can't keep the badboy thugs interested anymore, so I'll rationalize that I'm 'getting it together' by lowering my standards".

And don’t get me wrong, I want my man to do all this. I just want to know I’m at the top of the heap. If you’re looking for a relationship with me, when I say my train hasn’t come for an hour and I’m stuck in Queens, you don’t tell me you’ve got a big project in the morning, you throw on your basketball shorts and you come get me.

What? Who's more likely to come rescue you, a thug or a nice guy? This point doesn't make any sense.

If she’s worth it, she’ll probably have moved on to someone who can tell her how important she is up front (see #1). So, don’t be a jerk about it but tell her, as kindly, genuinely and as soon as possible. If you’re really a nice guy, she’ll take notice.

So, in other words, give no challenge whatsoever, let her know upfront exactly how much you like her? The fuck?

Guys who use this phrase frequently— and not just on a bad day after a breakup— are guys who would rather say that women are too stupid, too caught up on bad boys to make logical choices. They’re guys who would rather blame the world then take responsibility.

"Guys who use this phrase frequently— and not just on a bad day after a breakup—are guys who would rather say that women are too stupid, too caught up on bad boys to make logical choices."

"So let me say first, hoping that I’m speaking/writing within some invisible, online no-judgment zone, that I have dated every flavor of thug"

Unbelievable.

Yeah, it was a nice date but he wasn’t a nice guy. He was a polite guy with money, who was going to have the cab driver drop him off first. He was going to leave the anonymous driver of the anonymous town car with the responsibility of seeing me into my apartment, when the anonymous driver isn’t the one trying to test out a relationship with me. He also could of walked the 20 blocks with me, enjoyed the night air and my company, gotten a legitimate hug at the end of the date.

My sides.

Get the picture?

That legitimately hurt to read.

Its not a competition for her because as a girl...she doesn't have to compete as much as guys. Talk about solipsism.

[–][deleted] 11 points12 points13 points 13 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Wow...

Sounds like a day I spend with my little sister.

Seriously though a "legitimate hug" ... the fuck?

[–]luxury_banana12 points13 points14 points 13 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

A legitimate hug. I bet that's exactly what she gave the every flavor of thug she's dated.

[–]James_Coook0 points1 point2 points 13 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Wow a hug close...because that's totally what guys want. Not sex but hugs.

Bitch is fucking retarded, someone slap her dumb face with a dick.

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points5 points 13 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Some thug will.

[–]Ragnar092 points3 points4 points 13 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Which is why I never finish reading these. They are always idiots

[–]luxury_banana4 points5 points6 points 13 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Sometimes, DNA paternity testing reveals they don't finish at all.

[–]Ossuari2 points3 points4 points 13 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Yea listening to you will definitely help me in the long run ....

"There’s no such thing as success in relationships..."

Bitch, do you know how relationships work?

[–]Atlasius883 points 13 years ago [recovered] | Copy Link

"1. Nice guys don’t really know what they want."

She should really re-read her own article.

[–]W-Z-R1 point2 points3 points 13 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Nice guys finish last because they act in a way which implies a lack of status and makes them seem available. If you constantly pay for everything for her, are always there for her emotionally and demand absolutely nothing back, unless you have tonnes of women throwing themselves at you because you're a celebrity or something, she won't be attracted and what's more this makes complete sense. The woman gets one man to provide for her for free and the more assertive thug/badboy/whatever you want to call him, also provides for her in return for sex, so she's getting two (or more) for the price of one.

This is not Red Pill theory, this is pure Blue Pill shit.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points3 points 13 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Do people still say "people of color"? This pisses me off.

Huh I think I got brain cancer just reading that.
