Taboo-ty Call

Wednesday, February 11th, 2009

Holly and Megan are hanging out. Holly tells Megan that she really likes Jason. Jason goes out to the bars. Jason hits on a lot of girls. Jason calls Holly at 1:00 AM as he is leaving the bars: “Holly, come over to my place.” Holly get giddy and says to me, “Oh my godness! That was Jason. He wants to hang out! YAY!”

Ok, STOP!

It’s 1:00 am. He obviously wants to sleep with you, and you know it. But you are just so excited to see him and hang out with him, so you ignore that fact. Some girls are actually looking for a late night hook-up. However, some girls are looking for a relationship. So what happens?

Case #1: Boy calls girl. Girl goes to see boy late at night. Girl sleeps with boy. Girl leaves in the morning. Boy doesn’t call back. Girl doesn’t know what she did wrong.

Case #2: Boy calls girl. Girl goes to see boy late at night. Girl sleeps with boy. Girl leaves in the morning. Boy calls back…. but never before midnight. You are his new official booty call speed dial.

Case #3: Boy calls girl late at night. Girl says “why are you calling me right now. Its 1:00 in the morning.” Girl hangs up the phone. Ok, maybe it doesn’t have to be quite so blunt, but you get the picture.

If a guy gets mad because you don’t go to see him when it’s really late… then he is MR. WRONG.

I know that when you like someone, it is REALLY hard to say no. But really, you are helping yourself. You won’t become a booty call. He will respect you more.

Keep on keepin’on,

Women’s Rationales for Not Exiting Bad Relationships: ladies, do any of the following observations sound familiar to you?

Tuesday, February 3rd, 2009

Good afternoon ladies! First, I’d like to start off by saying that throughout my life I have been through many relationships, and have experienced all types of the profiles of Mr. Wrong. I know how it feels to be treated poorly in a bad relationship, and not have the power to exit the relationship and leave that significant other who you truly care about. Ditching Mr. Wrong offers different reasons women hold back from getting rid of the wrong guy in their lives, and we’d love to hear some of your stories, and even offer some advice from the professional, Mr. Nicholas Aretakis. So, take a look at these different observations, and if any do relate to you and your own relationship please leave a story and any possible questions you may have! 

Fear: ”No one else will ever want me.”

Arrogance: ”No one knows him like I do. I can change him.”

Sex: ”It’s not going to be this good with anyone else.”

Time: ”I’ve already invested so much in this relationship.”

Loneliness: ”I don’t want to be alone.”

Ignorance: ”Men are all pretty much like this one, aren’t they?”

Effort: ”I’d have to work too hard (lose weight, get a makeover, end addictions, rebuild social networks) to get a better one.”

Defensiveness: ”You just don’t know all his good qualities.”

 

Any sound familiar? Let’s hear some gossip girls! 

Have an amazing day, and never forget to always be yourself and never let ANYONE in your life bring you down! -Jenn
