Man Repellent
Apparently, I am Man Repellent.
It has recently been brought to my attention that I send out this weird "Commit to me" vibe. I have narrowed it down to several factors that seem to make guys think that I want more than I do, even when I say that I'm fine with something more casual!.
The Reasons why guys think that I want a more serious relationship &/or why I am Man Repellent:
1. I'm happy and perky.
2. I put time and effort into my appearance.
3. I use a lot of emoticons in my texts (that probably comes off as flirty.. Right?).
4. I use terms of endearment for everyone.
5. I cook and bake, and enjoy it.
6. I'm incredibly thoughtful.
7. I try very hard to make people feel at ease (also comes off as flirty)
8. I know that I am in fact a kick ass girlfriend.
9. I seem way too good to be true (come on.. I drink beer annnndddd love football?!)
10. I'm a Southern Belle, and thus bred to be an excellent girlfriend, fiance and wife.
11. I'm obsessed with my cat (but seriously.. he's adorable)
12. I really like wine, but I can shoot whiskey like a man.
13. Let's face it, I can drink anything like a man.
14. I like to give cards, and will not ever give someone so much as a muffin without a card (probably my personalized postcards).
15. I'm a nurturer.
16. I'm incredibly focused and won't let a guy get in my way.
17. I have some serious emotional baggage.
18. I may have the Tiffany Ring finder app on my phone... Shut up! I like shiny!!
19. For all my southern charm, I can be incredibly blunt
20. I do eventually want to settle down, but I unsettled myself barely a year ago so I'm not looking to resettle quite yet!
(Disclaimer: take all of this with a grain of salt.. I'm just drinking wine and being funny.)

Sounds like you are a pretty remarkable person and that any man should be standing at the door trying to knock it down! I would say keep being yourself and let them come to you. It's not to attract them to you it's for them to try to attract you to them. Make them want you, don't fake it, be real and stay true to yourself. The best thing you can do is to love yourself and find happiness in yourself and someone will see the light that surrounds you :) Baby your a firework!!!!! XOXO Brooke
ReplyDeleteKeep smiling! I really wish I had some wine right about now, but then again mixing it with all the meds I'm on by not be such a good idea! Have a great night!
I don't think it's you.
ReplyDeleteIt's them.
trust me, it's them ;)
Sounds like you should just keep on bein' exactly as you are until one with enough sense comes along. :) Never settle or change who you are! It's not like any of these are flaws!
ReplyDeleteHave a great rest of the weekend!
I can relate to most of your list...and I couldn't agree more with you that some of those traits seem to repel men. Go figure that smiling, making eye contact, and being kind actually translates to OMG I'm dying to marry you and have a serious relationship. Stat. hahahahha. Happy Monday! oxo
