You Have Such a Beautiful, Pretty Face! :/

Why thanks!?? I am sooo over tongue in cheek comments, such as

• "You're so pretty for a dark skin girl....
• "You're dress so nice for a big girl...
• "You're look so nice with glasses....
• "You're speak so well....
• "You're so nice for a New Yorker...
• "I woulda neva guessed you were from Brooklyn...

The list goes on and on. So, lets tackle my personal favorite, 

"You have such a pretty face." Which ultimately means if you weren't so fat then you could be a beautiful whole person instead of a head of attractiveness. 

I could really smack the next person that says that to me. 

I get it I'm pretty, beautiful, albeit gorgeous. 

But, does my rolls, or thighs really minimize that?? 

How about you keep your compliments/diss to yourself.

Thanks, your so hot for a old broad!

Texting Is NOT, I repeat not a substitute for a REAL call!!!

So is it just me or has this whole textin thing gotten out of control?? I know it can be convenient. I know sometimes you want to dissipate info w/o pressing talk. But, really I know at least 5 guys that I have dated that honestly talked to me more threw text, than actually convo.  What is really the worst that can happen, you talk, and the other person talks. 

It not that hard it been done for ages b4 textin.  

Do you realize I can't even type full sentences since I so use to abbreviating everything. I HATE being limited to 160 characters!!!! Also, what the rest of the world does not take into consideration, is that we don't all have Crackberry's. 

So I have to punch 3 buttons every time you press one. 

Also, are we so afraid of human contact, connections, and the like, that it is easier to text than to talk??

I know this one guy we'll call him Superman- he text me about how much he missed me, was happy to hear from me etc. He did that for 2 months before I realize that it been that long since I had spoken a word-verbally

 to him. Then there was Teardrop he cursed me out, fought with me, threw no less than 30 texts. Why?   It really not that difficult push Talk and do that Talk????

If the press on the other end is two long winded, you can always click over and say you have another call.......

Even better say is your mom on the next line, no one can get mad that they got cut off for Mommy Dearest!

Is It Just Me???? Or Do People Lie When It Not Even Necessary?!

So, last nite i was watching "I Want to Work For Diddy" online of course because I don't have cable. (BTW I guess I'm still the only one who thinks that it is a totally unnecessary monthly expenditure. But whateva I digress. So I watchin Diddy show which I like and think is equally not as good as it could be, but Eehh! And a IM message comes in. So, I open the window and it this guy that I met online from a online dating site. I know that is another post all together. Anyway, this guy looks good from his pics on his profile. Tall, you need to know that I'm a giant-6'ft and a bit. So he definitely my cup on tea. Now he goes into this whole bit about how he works for a construction company, that have office in France, so he is in Paris as we speak. Hmmmmmmm, ok SURE!! Wink, Wink. 

So I as wat exactly is he going in Paris, he like mostly office work. So, the construction co. you work for in NYC has taken you to Paris to do office work. Completely believable, right? Of Course so this I how the very short convo goes.

 

Me: So what time is it there? (It 12 am in BK)

Lying Dude: Oh it 4:58

Me: Really, isn't it 6 hr time difference from NY to Paris?

Lying Dude: What time is it the there?

Me: 12 am

Lying Dude: Oh, I must have made a mistake.

Me: Oh, ok well I got to go to bed now. TTY

Lying Dude: Oh, you don't want me to come see you?

Me: Come see me? I thought you just said your in Paris, for a month or so. 

How are you going to see me?

Lying Dude: Blah,blah,blah

So, anyway I stopped paying attention and signed off. I was being interrupted from watching Diddy. And could you believe that the assistants from Diddy had to go to Paris, France on this episode. 

Now, do we think that Lying Dude saw the episode as well. I mean it was Tuesday nite, and Diddy comes on VH1 on Mon. I believe. 

So the question then becomes: 

Is it just me or do men lie when it not even necessary just for the sake of lying. I don't for sure. Maybe there are some scientific studies I can go research????
