for once, my thread title is self-explanatory. Below, try to list reasons why it may be difficult for another person to get into the groove of YOU

1. I snore (even when I nap) and I like it.
2. I'm an amateur foodie. I will judge you openly on twitter if you constantly suggest Chili's, Applebee's and Friday's. The same applies to my cooking. No dear, we are not having spaghetti. But if you're about that pasta life, I can whip up some shrimp fra diavolo right fast!

I dont think I’m that bad. If you overlook the fact that - I'm an innocent flirter
- I don’t have a filter
- I am somewhat insensitive to people’s feelings
- I don’t sugarcoat anything
- I have heat seasons instead of wanting sex on a regular basis
- I am spoil
- I will call you out on bad grammer while butchering it as I see fit
- I will seriously go days before I remember I haven’t called or sent a text
- I am unsympathetic to you feeling some kinda way about my male friends. they were here before you, and more than likely, they’ll be the ones helping me toss your ish when you finally snap that last nerve complaining about them.
- I have an awesome way of making you feel dumb whenyou piss me off
- I tend to follow the “hit me with a feather and I’ll bust you up with a brick” train of thought
- I don’t do the “best friend with his mom” thing
- I don’t do gender roles
- One little white lie will make me not ever trust another thing you say. I will *side-eye* you every time you open your mouth
- I’m totally fluent in sarcasm. As a matter of fact, English is my second language. Cynicism is a close third.
Yea, overlook all of that (and then some) and you’ll see I’m the perfect girlfriend. (~_~) |

3. I know EVERYTHING about alcohol. No, really. Everything. For some reason, this has made dudes uncomfortable. One guy I'm dating just does the "I'll have what she's having" to avoid feeling judged about his selection, lol
4. I'm normally very relaxed with my speech. I code-switch like the next person. But if/when we argue, I get hella proper. And I will obliterate your position if it has even a hint of unsoundness. Get that lazy behind "you just don't understand. You don't know everything!" outta here. I'll smash it to pieces.
5. I have nothing against ratchet entertainment. I will pop, lock & drop it to "Rack City" and catch a re-run of "TI & Tiny." Maybe even in the same night. A dedicated culture snob might find that problematic.

6. I’ll make you face my feelings. What I mean by that—If you hurt me, I don’t mind crying in front of you. If you stand me up, I will express my disappointment. Not saying I’m a tit-for-tat cat, but I make no effort to shield you from the consequences of your bad decisions. Life is too short to be developing an ulcer tryna hold stuff in just so you’ll view me as a “cool girlfriend.” Yeah, I can be cool. If you can be accountable.
7. I absolutely positively cannot stand profanity directed toward me. I’m a lady and I was raised not to accept that. I consider cursing to be disrespectful even if used conversationally. Non-profane vulgarity counts too. I’m not trying to “change you” or whatever, but please be advised that I will respectfully end any conversation where you drop one too many f-bombs.
8. I’m not clear on the whole “let a man be a man” franchise. I will be respectful and polite and show deference when necessary, but your masculinity/gender identity is your responsibility.

* I'm kind of independent, I do like to ask for help but I will not wait that long for it. I will get some isht done while you're putting me off.
* I will nag if I need to
* I'm late...A LOT
* Titles matter to me
* I'm serious about my diet and what I eat and I won't compromise that for anyone. If I'm in charge of the food then there's a 90% chance that you're eating what works for me.
* I curse, sometimes a lot (blame my parents, LOL)
* I will interrogate you if I think you won't give me the whole truth in the beginning.
* I don't get over things quickly and I don't forget. I may not bring it up but it's still there.
* I'm a crier. If I'm happy, sad, mad, etc then I might cry.

* I like my alone time... you have to understand there will be days that I will say good morning and that's probably the last thing I say to you for most of the day. Even if we're sitting in the same house.
that's really all I got.. dating me is fun!

1. No amount of age or growth is ever going to make me want to hear you complain about things that bother you ad infinitum, no matter how cathartic it is, no matter how therapeutic it is. That $h!t does not make me feel closer to you or feel like we've bonded. It makes me feel like an emotional garbage dump. You need somewhere to throw all your negative energy and I get to be the dumpster. Great.
2. I'm not going to admit I'm wrong about something if I'm not. I know some advocate, "just tell her she's right. You don't have to believe it, just say it"... but I won't. Which is weird considering #5
3. I am irrational. What do I mean? Well I'm a logical dude, and I'll expect you to approach things logically, even though you're not a dude, and even though you're not me. I have every reason to believe that you'll approach things differently than I would, yet I'll still expect you to do it my way. That's irrational.
4. I like my alone time. I don't feel like I need to do everything with you. I am fine with you going off and doing things with your girls because it allows me to go do stuff with my peoples. I don't want to be around anyone all of the time - I actually need space.
5. I'll do a lot to avoid an argument, and in the process I will probably table a conversation for later that actually needs to happen now and needs to be argued about. All peace in the household isn't productive.
6. I put far too much stock in making my point. No argument should ever rise to the level of me trying to convince you of my point. Everyone has the right to believe whatever they want... even if it's demonstratably wrong.
7. I still struggle with letting people make their own mistakes. You feel like you can help people avoid some pitfalls if they'd just listen to your advice but sometimes the pitfall is the better teacher, and the rightful teacher. People have just as much right to make a bad mistake as they do to hold flawed perspectives and you DO have to let them have it.
8. I have an awesome selective memory. So I will forget the $h!t I said and maybe even claim I didn't say it, but I will recall with digital clarity EVERYTHING you said. That usually makes for problems.
9. I keep a messy house, and I have no justification for it whatsoever. I am lazy and I should do better, but I don't.
10. I don't ask people for help as often as I need it, and really, that's just stupid. Because for one, EVERYBODY needs help, there is no advantage to acting like you're self-sufficient when you're not, when help is a simple "ask" away.
11. If I don't respect your logic and reasoning, chances are I don't respect you. They should probably decouple, but for me they don't. You make a dumb argument, I will probably frame you as "dumb" for as long as I know you.
12. I take Eagles way too seriously. If the Eagles lose to anyone, I am pissed to the point that it ruins the rest of the day.
13. I judge. I try not to, but I still do it. I know I do. Especially if it comes to some argument you're making. Sigh
14. When I'm fed up, or have had enough of some b.s. ,I will deliberately choose not to be the bigger man. Instead of making efforts to resolve the issue, I will do those things which you detest the most just to piss you off

9. I won’t be having sex with you. Probably ever. And I don’t feel called to disclaim this the same day we meet like it’s a loathsome disease. When I feel that it’s any of your business, I’ll share. And if you throw a tantrum, I will NOT be understanding.

*update*
I'm in love with the idea of being in love, but I can do without a "boyfriend/man/SigOt." However, I like the "idea" of having one although the idea of him is more appealing that the actual him.

Couple the above with the fact that you don't put out all that much would really suck dating you.  ..... Can you cook though? ;D |

Can I cook? The real questions here are "do I" and "will I?"

Listen, not putting out is not exactly my idea of not being bored...hello! Can we at least play scrabble and use sexually-inspired words only?..daaaang. Now, what can you cook woman!? |

wait... let me stop laughing first....... ok. 1st of all, those not putting out AT ALL days were circa 1981 - 2003. Since then I have been uber selective about the "Good Stuff" recipients (even going as far as to fight one for LOD'ing). That being said, at this point "NOT AT ALL" turns in to "HARDLY EVER, UNLESS" I'm not one for the front and back paged partner list. I kinda relish the thought of being able to count them on 1 hand.  |

The cooking question has YET to be answered.
If I can't get the "good stuff" based on the uber selective/hardly ever approach and we can't play sexual scrabble, can I least get a grilled cheese sandwich?
