Just for you.
I didnt comment earlier bec I didnt really find it a shock.
He made a HUGE deal about when the Yankee fans spit on his wife… If he was seriously considering coming to NY, he wouldve toned it down a bit.

You’d be surprised at what there is a market for these days…
23. I know, its really not such a funny question, it was just never asked before so it struck me as funny.

Um, Independent is also a party.
Did you mean youre an Independent thinker?
I guess its not such a weird question but it was the first time it was asked of me so it struck me as funny…
Someone asked my mother if I was ever divorced.
I turned to my father and said, “Lets get through the first before we start worrying about the second”
WIY
I was referring to the nos being maybes.
Bottom line is men fall in love with their eyes first and woman with their brain. Its a fact that isnt going to change any time soon.
WIY
Do you want it to?

“i mean what are you supposed to order?!?! and the worst part is when he asks if i want dessert because i NEVER know what to say”
Heres what I do. I say something like, “did you decide what youre getting?” and then he usually says “well, I’m debating between a and b” then I see what price range he is ordering in. You do NOT want to order the filet mignon when he is getting a salad. Then just order what you like, dont over think it.
Dessert. I dont like dessert. Everytime without fail that I’ve gone out to eat (many) the guy asked what I wanted for dessert, I just say that I’m not a dessert person, and I’ll pass. There was one instance where the guy I was dating insisted that I get something (we had been dating for a while) so I took a forkful, and he finished the rest. Be flexible and roll w the punches.

Oh, dont worry “you’re” safe, I’m saying no 😉
WIY
Seriously, I wasnt being serious.

A good indication of what a guy is feeling/thinking is body language, it is well worth your while to become familiar w learning how to read it.
How did he react after you spilled your guts?
BPT
Exactly, lol.
WIY
It does seem that way sometimes…
I didnt think I dated you, I thought you were a guy, who… never mind LONG story 😉
BTW, I changed my mind who I think you are (partially because the first victim is engaged), LOL.
Someone sent me a resume of a guy and from the description I was like, o gosh this is for sure WIY.
WIY
Say, maybe. But not show.
cshapiro
Men are very transparent, if they like you they WILL let you know (unless they are one of those who like to play games and/or have emotional problems both of which you should be able to tell pretty early on)
in which case, NEVER be the first to pour out your heart.
WIY
You do what ya gotta do.
Seems like Lakewood is full of drunkards… 😉

The rule is 4:1 roughly, it can be tweaked to be 3:1 if needed, where a girl should come up w the date and/or make the date.
P.S. Had I been you I wouldve freaked out had a guy told me on a 5th date, “I dont care where we go I just want to be with you…”
Clingy much?
Mods dont let me guess 🙁
Anyways if your not single, I’m wrong.
WIY
If that really happened, I’m embarrassed for the both of you.

Its a club where you sign up (aka pay) and every month they send you a new bottle of bourbon/scotch/wine. There is also have the 3 month plan and the 6 month plan (some have 9 month). Some clubs vary in price depending on the “chashivus” of the bottles they are going to send you. I think the average year club runs at about $720 or $60 a month (thats for Bourbon)
BTW, I think I know who you are 😉
popa
As long as we are on the topic of wishful thinking…
WIY
Qualify your buyer. Woman are of no use to me 😉
Turns out, I’m not the biggest phone yapper…
So when the Mechutanim do the drive-by, are they going to have to peer through the cobwebs, dust-bunnys and sticky fingerprints? 😉
Most guys ask whether they care, or not…
Here is an ideal scenario:
Boy: What would you like to do?
Girl: I’m up for anything so I’ll let you choose this one.
Heres is when the guy should choose! Stop playing volleyball.
I know I always find it strange when there are carrots in MB soup.
Well, I can relish in the drudgery of housework when my dear darlings are sleeping and the Hubby is at his nightly Shiur….
Obviously I wouldnt rebuff my DH for the Windex bottle, but honestly, its not like you spend every last second together anyway.
So instead of lazying around while yapping on the phone, clean up the ‘sty.
I always love when someone complains about this “problem”.
I’ve been living in Flatbush since the day I was born, and although I would love nothing more than to move OOT, I can honestly say I have never experienced this phenomenon.
Whenever I am out on Shabbos and pass anyone I greet them with a smile and a “Good Shabbos!” and it is like-wise reciprocated.
Obviously, if you are a female and are greeting a Chassidish male who is already looking at the pavement, dont expect a greeting in return. Qualify your buyer.
“Sesame seeds on the inside?”
😉
If thats what does it for them.

Heres my take, if you have a rotation and do something else every night the house should always be clean. For example, Monday – windows and floors, Tuesday – bathrooms and kitchen… you get the point. And obviously everything should always be in its place, there is no reason why you should go to bed w 2 weeks worth of dishes in the sink, if you would just wash each fork as you use it, you wouldnt have that problem.
Then again I’m single and I dont know anything 😉

Clearly a reverse roll relationship.
Oh heres a good poll:
Men, do you prefer your home clean and orderly or are you ok with it being not so clean and messy?
Do you prefer a slobby/messy house?
BPT
My windows wouldnt be left unclean for a full 30 days.
My co-workers get a kick out of the fact that I am always dusting my desk, or any surface that looks like it has been neglected… Since I work w all males, you can rest assured they wouldnt notice dust should it become 6 inches thick.
What would I do w the extra hour?
Definitely bake something for the dear hubby.
I bake/cook whenever I get the chance now, so if a husband was benefiting from it, even better!
Ive only gone to a lounge twice for a first date… There are definitely other things that dont involve going out to eat.
I dont know why guys say its uncomfortable for a girl to eat on a first date. If you dont eat like a horse, you should be fine… I mean girls eat out all the time…
WIY
There is just so many ways to go on this…. I’m just going to keep quiet.
theres just
After the 4th. And never let the guy see you pay. For example, maybe plan the date, and make him a picnic. Dont take him out to eat and whip out a credit card… its emasculating.
I feel like girls give guys mixed messages, “What, you think I’m not capable of opening my own door?” Yet, you still want your man to be chivalrous. My advice to the guys, be a gentleman! If she is someone hung up on feminism, you can decide if you want to marry Hilary Clinton as the dates progress, however, that doesnt give you an excuse to be a TPT (trailer park trash)
When the guy calls me before the date *gasp* (if this isnt your practice, have the shadchan do it) I ask, are we going casual or formal. Its really very simple, some guys prefer casual some guys prefer simple. Guys, please make the decision! Girls want a decisive man.
Creativity is key. There is no need to go to a lounge, that just shows you are lazy, lazy, lazy. Dont tell me its because you want a quiet setting to talk, there are 100s of quiet places to talk that dont involves hotel lobbys.
No hard or fast rule but: Drinks is an audition, Coffee is cheap, Lunch is an interview and Dinner is someone who is serious.
Like Google buying RIM?

I dont think the OP was referring to year long courtships…. I could be wrong.
WIY
No need, all it takes is the suggestion.
WIY
Agreed. But I prefer efficiency.
WIY
All of which you can have on a Blackberry.

I figure because of all the Apps, that you really dont need for any kind of work. Because all the “prepsters” are the first ones to buy it and then upgrade and then upgrade again… yea, sounds like a toy.

The way I describe the male and female roles have no shaychus to Darwinism, its just a riff on the terms, since they happen to fit so well.
