Single Man Soliloquies

December 30, 2011

Random thoughts and stream of consciousness from a single guy … me.

I don’t necessarily like to complain about being single; sometimes it’s just humorous commentary to me

The older you get your “deal breakers” should change, if you’re still rockin the same deal breakers in your 30s as you did in your 20s … good chance you’re single

Women have a lot of power in relationships, but when they abuse it no one wins

Things have changed with Twitter, and Facebook there’s almost no reason to use online dating sites (though I might do it)

I don’t like talking on the phone for extended periods of time (with most people) because I find that a lot of people don’t have the personality to maintain my interest without being face to face

Opposites attract but it doesn’t mean they belong together

Sense of humor is underrated in dating, people say they look for it and want it but a good sense of humor is hard to find

I’ve never been the type that has to be all up under a woman … go out with your girls, I’ll be here when you get back

I love a professional woman, but I’d date a woman that works at Target, Popeyes, or a Janitorial service if I’m diggin her…

Smoking be it Cigarettes, Weed, Hookah, just isn’t hot to me … I dunno why just doesn’t turn me on … Cigarettes is the worst tho

“Traditional” gender roles are killing dating in the 00’s and 10’s Times have changed and so should expectations NOT all, but a lot of them

He should call first, okay but as a hard and fast rule? No … if you want to talk to him talk to him

If I invite you over I’m really interested
If I cook for you I really like you
If you see me in my polo PJ pants with the giant hole in them, we go together lol

If a woman likes me now, then they will like me forever I don’t bother fronting like I’m someone else to “get in good” then switch up … this is me

She owes me ass for spending money on her … no one told you to spend that money, you’re flashin she’s cashin in

The cat and mouse game about chasing women has never been appealing to me … I will state my interest, show that I’m interested but if I don’t get an equal response, I push … why waste my time cuz she’s playing games

A lot of guys like Ass and Breasts, which I do too … but a Pretty face trumps it all

Online personalities and Real Life personalities should be the same; at least similar … you should not be two different people

I like simple things, Comedy Club, Coldstone, Open Mic, DVD night … thats not for everyone

He should open the car door for me … How were you going to get in the car if you were by yourself? Exactly … it’s a nice gesture but it shouldn’t be a deal breaker

Conversation and Debate is totally different from arguing … the former is kinda hot, the latter…

Women love compliments, and I give them a lot when they are true … little known fact though, men love compliments too … how about some when they’re warranted

If you ask me out I’m assuming you are paying … if you have a problem with that we should prolly not.

She better be a good cook … why? Who said she wants to cook for you all the time anyway? What did you eat before you met her?

I dunno if you should date AND follow each other on Twitter lol

People are very opinionated when it comes to men v. women and dating … if you meet someone who’s opinion is very strongly in the opposite of yours … don’t bother

There’s nothing wrong with a first date being at one or the others house, if you’re comfortable it’s not a bad setting to converse and really get to know each other
… if you are not comfortable then hell no

I say what’s on my mind … you should too; Otherwise don’t get pissed if I get it “wrong”
I’m no mind reader

Just my thoughts! I’d love to read your comments here and on Twitter @eclectik

“I don’t want anybody to get the wrong idea about me, I don’t have nothing to hide; I want the world to see …”

    The older you get your “deal breakers” should change, if you’re still rockin the same deal breakers in your 30s as you did in your 20s … good chance you’re single <-AMEN!!

    I love a professional woman, but I’d date a woman that works at Target, Popeyes, or a Janitorial service if I’m diggin her…<-i feel like men have more a window for certain things. if a woman wrote this, after people roll their eyes – she would be told to raise her standards. sigh.

    “Traditional” gender roles are killing dating in the 00′s and 10′s Times have changed and so should expectations NOT all, but a lot of them <-but how to know which ones? and this is personal and not universal. interested to know which ones you feel which ones should be kicked to the curb.

    She owes me ass for spending money on her … no one told you to spend that money, you’re flashin she’s cashin in <-please say this again for the cheap seats.

    She better be a good cook … why? Who said she wants to cook for you all the time anyway? What did you eat before you met her? <-*makes it rain in your collection plate. everyone has pre-requesites, but funny how people demand something they don't do themselves.

    I dunno if you should date AND follow each other on Twitter lol <-learned the hard way that YOU SHOULD NOT date and follow. actually in a relationship/engaged/married? sure. anything else not concrete??? hecky naw.

    1st time reader! great post!!!
