The Love holiday.

flowers, candy, cards, dinner, and stuffed animals.

…but nothing makes this day more special than that moment shared with your significant other. ya know that one where you two just stare into each other’s eyes.

you feel butterflies.

then you remember why you like/love this person in the first place. I love this day so much, because it’s a break from the mundane, monotonous love stories that we may tell. This is the day for the affectionate and creative. I want a real love story to tell my children when I tuck them into bed.

[sigh]

if only everyday were Valentine’s day….

A Mirror

I saw this on Twitter one day.
"In a perfect world, there would be no mirrors, because every girl would have a perfect guy to tell her that she looks beautiful."

I started wondering about the validity of this statement. Mirrors truly aren't for ourselves, they're there so that we can look presentable in front of others. Did this start with a group of primal humans gazing into a pool of water together thinking, "Gosh I wonder if she knows she looks that bad *pause* oh crap do I really look like that??"

"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder."
"Looks don't count for everything, but they do count for something."

Image, unfortunately, defines us. It can determine whether you are given a job opportunity, internship, etc. Now, this may be true, but that does not mean that we have to follow the masses.

Image may define you, but you write your own dictionary.
Be original.

Yeah this post is short, but I just wanted to get my feelings out there :)

Nice Guys?

Do nice guys really finish last?

This question I continually ask myself...

My conclusion is….yes

I say yes because many girls cannot handle the fact that you’re not pressuring them to do anything sexually, and that you’re secure enough with yourself to not be jealous and overprotective. As a result of this, some females become afraid and break it off before they get in too deeply, while others cannot understand why you aren’t trying to get into their pants and feel as is you have ulterior motives. So, I guess nice guys suffer because of their previous boyfriend’s mistakes. Another reason I feel as though we finish last is because a girl can look at you and see you as “perfect “ or “Mr. Right” but you may not see her as such, and you decide to break it off because it just isn’t really working out for you. Following this, we feel awful because she may cry or feel unworthy of the next man that comes along…and we will have successfully broken her heart, which was the last thing that we wanted to do.

But, there is hope for us.

We will only finish last for right now. When girls actually wake up and truly decide what they want, and understand what’s out there…wow only time will tell, but when this finally does happen all of the times that we were let go and cast aside will simply be a thing of the past, because some women just have to grow up. If you’re a nice guy in this day and age, well then you’re ahead of your years…and some girls just can’t keep up…right now anyway.

So, don’t fret my friends, our time is coming.
