Tail Chasing Pt. 2

Hola!

This is just a quick one!

My friend DancerGirl was reading my 'tail chasing' post last night and she brought up an interesting point...

The absolute worst scenario (even worse than him acting like nothing ever happened) is if you had to CONVINCE yourself that you liked him in the first place!!

and i thought 'yeeeeeaaaaaah' (because i have been victim to this atrocity)

You meet a guy..he's ok...u know..manageable...then u think...'im kinda bored...why not?...' then u slowly warm to him until...

BAM!

the tables have turned...and from my knowledge on such things...it happens overnight..u suddenly realize...'oh damn..i'm in trouble'

enter
...
...

SILENCE

ok...so its bad enough ur plans of relationship bliss are thwarted...but u didn't even REALLY like him in the beginning!!



it stings.



this brings me to another friend of mine, GorgeousGirl..who incidentally could be FashionGirl2...but would kill me if she knew she shared a name with FashionGirl (dont i have fabulous friends?!)..but she is ridiculously pretty so her ego will have to settle for GG.

anyway...

she came up with two terms for some of the people we meet in out lives...and it is really true!


Desperate eyes: this is when you see a guy that you THINK is soooo hot and all your friends are like 'dude...wtf?'...thankfully...because when u look again...u realize he's actually not what you would normally go for...this is due to the lack of enough beautiful men in ur life and so ur brain tells you everyone is fit...usually happens when inebriated...

akin to beer goggles...but we are too stylish and fabulous to drink beer (ick)...lol.

Growers: guys that u wouldn't usually consider, but they win u over with their charm...or they have the perfect smile...or something! then suddenly u find urself thinking...'hmm, what is this funny feeling? could it be lust?...' and then it's too late...u love him! (ok not love...)

So, as i said earlier...when growers do the disappearing act...its a bitch...it really does something terrible to your sense of self-worth...

but...we are big girls! what can we do but brush it off...and hope the next 'lemon' life throws at us isn't some sour, mouldy, worm-ridden grower who has nothing better to do than waste valuable days, weeks or months (if ur really unlucky) of our lives...

Personally, i'm waiting for life to send a tall, dark, handsome, sculpted, smart, ambitious, funny lemon my way...and we can make sweet sweet lemonade together...sigh

ok, i rant.

till next time!
