Uncategorized Facebook is not the new way to pick up on people and because of people who think this…I have become a lying liar that lies!
That’s right! I am now the lying liar that lies out of my lie hole, that I have accused so many others of! But I had a reason. A pretty good reason…Kinda. First, let me start by telling everyone that Facebook is not the new dating site. I may have met my last boyfriend off of Myspace, but you only make that mistake once! Again I stress, Facebook is not the new Match.com!
So, I get this friend request from a guy. We happen to have a friend in common and I go into “maybe we met at a party and I don’t remember and now I don’t want to be rude” mode. I accept and within a few minutes I get a message in my inbox. He pretty much told me he thought I was hot (in his best Ebonics possible) and asked me if I would like to meet up sometime. Wow there killer! I quickly backed out of my inbox like he could see I was reading it or something. I then went about my daily Facebooking routine and logged off. Later in the evening I logged on again and I got an IM. It was my new fb stalker. I was nice and chit chatted for a bit then “accidently” logged off mid conversation. What?! Like you’ve never done that before!… Don’t judge me!
The next day while checking updates I had a new message. It was him! AGAIN! Read more…

Uncategorized I think that I have a problem. That’s always a good way to start, admitting right? I think I have a problem because lately I have been catching myself playing the “How Can I NOT Date You” game. I’m usually playing the “I’d like to be your girlfriend because…” game. I don’t know what has changed and I sure don’t feel any different, but let me give you a prime example of what I mean.
So the other night Miss Communication, FES and I went to a little bar, which by the way was a really laid back, chill kind of place. The place was called Lucy’s in Toluca Lake. I highly recommend. Anyways, back to me. Miss Communication and I instantly heard the live music when we walked in from the back and my eyes magically (after I went to the bar and got a drink of course) became glued to the guy sitting on the stool, strumming his guitar and singing with his amazing John Mayer-ish voice. Now, to be clear I was not staring because he was hot or anything, but just on musical talent alone. After a couple songs THEN I decided to try and figure out if he was cute or not! A little delayed I know, but I was appreciating the talent first. What girl doesn’t want a guy that can pull out the ol guitar and sing a song he wrote about her while they sit on the beach at night and listen to the waves. What?! Like it doesn’t happen! So, I think I can sacrifice a little bit of the hotness factor.
I looked at the guy from across the bar trying to decide if I was attracted to him OR the music, but kept getting sucked into the music. Damn that music! I finally turn to Miss Communication, who was just as glued to the music man in front of us, and told her that after some observation I think he has to be only 22, 23….maybe 25 tops. She takes a few minutes and says that she thinks he is her age at least. There is no way I said. He looks like a kid. Oh wait, so does Miss Communication. Hmmmm. Read more…

Adventures In Internet Dating I wanna know what love is…I want you to show me….
Sorry. Got carried away there. So, we all know that the internet is for everyone and we are all looking for love. I also know that most programs now a days, even text on phones, have spell check for those who are not too good in that department. Soooooo, where’s the “that doesn’t make any sense!” for the foreigner emails?!…
Here are the emails. Nothing is changed or fixed. I couldn’t fix these even if I tried! There aren’t much, but I had to share these!

Uncategorized Well, some how I have done it again! I have found myself another non relationship. What I like to call a relation-NOT. I started hanging out with this new guy randomly and we quickly found ourselves hanging out with each other everyday. I mean things progressed quickly! We spent every day and every night for 2 months!!! If that’s not on a speedtrack to a relationship I don’t know what it is. Not to mention that we waited a while to sleep together. We have definitely been having some fun, that I cannot deny. I really like spending time with him and so for a while I have let go the fact that we hadn’t had the “talk”. Though I’m not gonna lie, just about every drunken moment there were discussions. Though we both remember them going differently than the other remembers. Damn you alcohol! Anyways, closing in on going on three months I decide to say something and yes alcohol was involved, but not as much as before. Haha. My non decides to tell me that he likes what we have going, but just isn’t ready for a girlfriend. But by any means we are not friends with benefits and doesn’t want us to date other people, and be sleeping in the same bed together. WTF?! Let’s break this down a bit…
I Like what we have going, but I don’t want a girlfriend right now.
Ok. Kinda understood, but that’s kind of what I am. I can deal with not being called your girlfriend right now, but if there is no possibility of it in the future why bother. I’m not one of those that needs a label, but I’m not going to run around in my wheel just to end up where I have been. If this isn’t going to be more than that you need to let me out of this cage and roam. Haha. You love my analogies I know! Which brings us to the next segment… Read more…

Uncategorized So I have been dating this guy (another non, another post). I decided to take him to an event that was mixed with some industry friends and some civilian friends. That which include the always fabulous crew of The Alleged Ringleader, ShamWow and Lilo. It was going to be a whole lot of people, but you gotta be put to the test sometime right! And I have to know how you can handle/get along with these people in order to continue. If you can’t get along with this group then it will never work! Well, first of all the day/night was awesome! We all had lots of fun cause with that crowd it’s hard not too. But back to the matter at hand. The new guy, Confusion (cause that’s what he has been), had alot on his plate that day, but I didn’t tell him that. I kinda fed him to the lions without warning…opps. Champ (a great guy I had dated) was going to be there and a few guys that I had hooked up with. So, it slipped my mind to mention these…sue me. I knew that if Confusion asked, I would tell the truth. Why make more awkward out of an already awkward situation. So, the day is going good with a few complaints from Confusion on why we are not on the beach when we are at the beach….Cause we are too busy drinking in a bar! DUH!
A few hours into our bar adventures we all head to someone’s hotel room to freshen up/drink more. Well, in this one room happens to be… Miss Communication, The Alleged Ringleader, ShamWow, Lilo, The Champ, Confusion, Myself and some others. At one point I am sitting outside with The Champ and Confusion. I head back inside to talk to Miss Communication about something. As we are talking I believe we both have our ear on the conversation that is going on outside. And then we hear it. We hear the arm wrestle challenge that Confusion gives The Champ. WTF? FTW and FML! all in one simple sentence!!! Read more…

Adventures In Internet Dating OMG! I realized that I have not blogged about the infamous Announcer from my internet dating. So this date took place a while back, but is still sooo fresh in my mind…
I met the Announcer on an internet site. We chit chatted and talked about meeting up. We finally decided on a date, time and place (he came to me). We talked on the phone a couple times and we were both excited about meeting up. So, I get all dressed up (duh!), but still keep it casual looking and drive (practically around the corner, yessss!) to where we decided to meet for dinner. I recognized him right off the bat and judging by his face… I did a good job at getting ready, haha! Anyways, he pulls something out of his pocket and it’s a little stuffed monkey. ***Quick back story*** One day he told me he was going to the zoo with his roommate and his roommates kid and I was quite jealous. So he brought me something from the zoo since I couldn’t go. Awww…so nice right?!
We sit down to eat. Get some apps, drinks and dinner. We actually keep up good convo and exchange some nice smiles. He had a really nice smile. He was a cute guy and I was enjoying my view. We finish up our night, both ignoring our back up phone calls…haha. You know the phone call you have your friend make and if you answer you suddenly have some “emergency” that you need to run off to. Haha. I do find out that he is quite the partier, but I was ok with that. He walks me to my car and we say good night. No kiss, just a hug.
I get home and realize that I am glowing. I have a great rest of the night and actually talk to him again that night because he called to say what a good time he had. We talk off and on for the rest of the week. The weekend is coming and I have people coming over. I invited the Announcer ahead of time and he said that he would come. I was totally excited.

Adventures In Internet Dating I would just like to know at what age do they offer neutering to men? Some of the messages that I get on the dating sites, not to mention the way some men act in everyday life, are just ridiculous. Tell me this…Why would I want to respond, let alone date you if it seems like I’m not even someone you are that interested in? Yes, obviously you are interested cause you messaged me, but if you act so nonchalant about it, what’s the rush in me getting back to you.
***NEWSFLASH***: Women like to feel wanted. Desired. Yes I know that you probably message 20 different girls a day, but at least act like I may have been the only one. Otherwise, really, what’s the point. And if I’ve somehow made you feel the need to tuck it in an email and we haven’t even spoke or met yet, trust me, you don’t want to meet me. But let me know when you grow a pair.
Here are some of those emails. No BS. No balls:
Him: I just thought you seemed like someone i’d like to learn more about. If you feel like a chat just hit me back, otherwise its no biggie. Hope all is well.
-Well since it’s no biggie and we are in no rush hit me back up when you grow a pair.
Him: Hello…Just thought i would drop you a line since i saw you checked out my profile, you are beautiful!
Me: Aww, thank you and Hi =)
Him: Your very welcome!
-Uhhhh. Ok. Guess we are done with that conversation. So, when are you gonna grow a pair?
Him: Hey there. My friend told me about this site and I decided to try it out to meet new people or maybe that special someone. Anyways, was looking at some of my possible matches and saw your pic. I think
you have a very beautiful smile and hope to get a chance to talk to you sometime in the future to get to know each other.
-Please man up that you joined the site of your own free will. Just like me. Now please…Grow a pair. Read more…

So, back when I first started the internet dating I gave ALL guys from all walks of life a chance. If it had a penis and looked cute I would message him back. Why not? That’s what I’m here for right? What could be the harm in just a friendly hello?? Famous last words, I know. I quickly learned my lesson and have since changed my settings (which still doesn’t stop the 25 and younger guys from messaging, but at least the inbox sends them and me a “Hey this guy is YOUNG” message…haha). Most guys have got the hint, but there is one in particular that still pops up now and again.
In the beginning we exchanged IM screen names because well, let’s face it, it’s easier than emailing back and forth. Through constant IM’ing, on his part (damn that guy can type/text forever!), I realized that this guy was way too young for me and even with his REPEATED “I don’t like girls my age. I’m just not into all that party and crazy lifestyle anymore. I want a girl that knows where she is going in life and is ready to settle down.” Slow down there kiddo. I get the point. I’m just not your girl. Sorry, but I have to listen to my mom when she says
