Stepping away from the ass talk for a moment, I was reading an article recently which was talking about the type of guys we fall for and how to go about changing our routine of always falling for the same type of guy if it isn't working out for you.
When it comes to men, I know my type and I'm OK with it. They're usually emotionally detached, with a drug/alcohol problem, have spent time in jail and/or have a record, bar room brawls are the norm and generally, just don't give a shit. Basically, you wouldn't want them on your bad side. Physically, they're tall, slim, dark haired and have tattoos and really nice cocks. The kind you write home about. What can I say, I know how to pick them. They also usually leave me wondering if I should get a shrink or not.
For the most part, these guys are a lot of work, mainly because of the emotional damage that they can do on a gal's heart due to their hard ass aloofness and lack of any kind of sensitivity. Then again, I couldn't deal with an emotional, sensitive guy. This may piss some folks off, but I can't stand seeing a man cry (unless he's listening to Johnny Cash or Willie Nelson). But a man who cries over romantic-comedies or during fights or anything like that – oh hell no. That's what the cool kids call a deal breaker (see below for more deal breakers).
Perhaps my type isn't the ideal type out there for most women. There are usually consequences that come along with this type of man, dangerous situations, jail-time (in my case, spending Christmas night behind bars), etc. A lot of women would either run at the first sign of this kind of man, or try to change them. That whole thing about changing men being impossible is pretty much true. It won't happen, not permanently, anyway. I never really understood women who try to change men. What if it was the other way around and the man was trying to change the woman? Do you really think the woman would even change slightly? Again, I have to reference “Sex and the City” and that whole episode where Samantha tries to change that bald, short guy with bad breath they nick-named the Turtle. She cleaned him up and gave him some new, fancy clothes and dined at trendy restaurants. But in the end, he was the still the same Turtle, just slightly better dressed.
And because I've recently been asked a few times what my “dealbreakers” are, here you go:
Small dicks, mama's boys (the bad kind – you know, can't make a decision without asking mama first), the family man, anti-alcohol (supposedly, there are some out there), short men (anything below 5'6), metrosexuals (please don't wax/pluck your eyebrows, get facials, go for manicures/pedicures, go to tanning salons, worry about calories/working out, or other general girly man behavior), vegetarians (they taste funny..too green), men who wear pink or other “pastels”, the John Lennon type, overly sensitive, listens to Rhianna. That's just a few off the top of my head.
But what if you keep falling for the same type of guy and it's really not working for you? Is there anything you can do to change your predictable man routine? According to dating coach and founder of Cablight, Nancy Slotnick, there are five steps you can take to change your ways.
1.Go after qualities.
2.Don’t think you have to change yourself.
3.Get out of your head.
4.Have dealbreakers.
5.Last but not least, chemistry comes first.
