SIMPLE THINGS

The following was written by a female friend of mine and I thought deserved to be shared:

"As we approach a new dawn of a new era it's pretty easy to see that things change.. times change ... people change and society changes..

Call me crazy but no matter how the times, seasons and moral changes... Im an old fashioned girl with old fashion values... but with a little bit of a new age spin.



I mean grant it we can't live in the past forever but does that mean that we can't keep some of it to go along with the changing ways??

Lets start with pick up lines...
Don't call me Mami, because I am NOT going to be your mother... Don't call me baby because Daddy you are not.



I am a grown woman that can take care and provide for myself, I don't need someone to shelter me nor do I need to be the one to shelter you. I look for an equal someone to allow me the space and respect to care for myself, someone who can accept the fact that I love to care for another and want to grow from each other, I do not want to raise you.



So as a woman let me give some of the men out there a little something to go on in life with...

If you're out there looking for a wife... then your "club tactics" your "ay bay bay tactics" aren't going to be suffice.



I can not tell you how irritated it makes me when a guy walks by and says something stupid or whistles ... Yells something dumb out of the car window as you drive by....

I mean what you aren't man enough to get out of your car and do that? You have to drive away ?? Afraid of rejection much?

Or maybe it's because you know how ridiculous you look and sound.



Or how about the fact ladies... when you're in a club or a bar or wherever for that matter and a guy walks up and tries to grab /grope you and tries to say something in your ear.... I CAN NOT STAND THAT...

Just a thought gentlemen...

How about....

You see a woman that catches your eye and instead of doing something that's only going to leave a jerk off impression in her mind... you instead...

Walk up and say, Hi, (introduce yourself) and just say... Im just here and I couldnt help but notice you and I just wanted to say hello and maybe get the chance to talk to you...
Now I'm not going to say that you wont get turned down, because that depends on the girl and what she's got going on... but atleast you wont look like an idiot, and should she ever see you somewhere again, she's going to remember good things of you rather than some gross guy she saw in a club.



They say chivalry is dead but why? It doesnt have to be.



Maybe its just me but nothing makes me feel better than knowing that Im the whole package by the person thats into me.


Im not the kind of girl who has to be pampered... Im the kind of girl who wants the thought of being pampered offered to me.



I don't need roses and a limo on a date, I like the idea offered
I don't need diamonds and candy, I like the fact that the thought was there.



I don't need the world but I love the fact that you want to spend your life trying to offer it to me.



See guys.... Men have a lot of misconceptions about women... Im talking about REAL women...

If you ever took the time to get to know a Real woman you would see... that all she wants is the thought... the effort... I can live a life time in a card board box with news paper as my blankets if the man who loves me is with me.


And I'd live that life happy because no matter what we have and may not have, I know that the thought is in his heart.



So guys when you're out there wondering what to do... Just remember ....

It's the simple things...."
