“Nice Guys” Finish First

(This was originally a guest post that I wrote for the lovely Hannah’s blog, but is feeling very relevant right now. With her permission I’m reblogging here)

There are a lot of men in this world, and I have developed a crush on at least half of them. Perhaps even two thirds of them and subsequently been rejected by around hmmm… 90% of them. From my experience in this stagnant dating pool of which we call life, Men are divided into 3 categories. Nice, bastards and gay. The nice guys are extremely hard to come by and are usually accompanied by a beautiful girlfriend WITH LEGS UP TO HERE, the bastards are ten a penny and would rather jizz on your face if you were on fire than extinguish the flames and the gay ones make me wish I owned a penis and liked anal sex.

I know we shouldn’t label things (apart from the food in your fridge so your housemate doesnt steal your favourite fancy m&s yoghurt that you’re saving to eat when watching New Girl) but life would be so much easier and save a lot of frog kissing time if men were labelled on the forehead “nice” or “bastard” – I know what you’re thinking “but then who would want a bastard?” Youd be surprised. Some girls really do want a bastard. sometimes you don’t want hearts and flowers, sometimes you want the rough and tumble of drunken text messages and being left unconscious by your head board.

What gets my thong in a twist (Hannah and I do not share the same underwear tastes) is when the bastards try and disguise themselves as the nice guys: and by this I don’t mean they just seem nice to begin with because they all do. heck, even Hannibal Lecter was kind of charming before the whole eating of someones brain. They actually make a point of butting into your moans during your first him inducedm orgasm to say “I’m a nice guy, I’m one of the good ones, woe is me, girls shit all over me, what a shame, feel sorry for me” etc and you’re thinking… This guy is a catch. Why are people shitting on him? Have you seen his chest hair? Have you seen his face? Oh my god I’m having the most amazing orgasm. And before you know where you are, you’ve let your bastard guard down abit and you’re enjoying Mr Nice Guy.

You make think this is happily ever after story about the lovely orgasm inducing Mr Nice Guy, but alas not. No my friends, this is just the start. Little bastardisms start creeping into the cold light if day. A twatty comment here, a sly below the belt tweet there and before you know it you’re hurtling up shit creek without a paddle and no armbands. Sheep in wolves clothing? He’s a male slag and you’ve fell hook line and sinker for this Noah from The Notebook persona that he’s presented to you when actually he’s Charlie Sheen in Two and a Half Men with only half the craziness. Its this confusion that turns you into some bat shit crazy woman, because nice guys arent meant to play stupid man games, they’re meant to text back and buy you roses and tell you exactly what they’re thinking. Not ignore every single message you send them for 7 hours and then eventually reply with a “lol” or “ok” message while updating Twitter and Facebook constantly and tweeting hot girls with LEGS UPTO HERE.

I wrote a post recently about piloting a “wristband” idea on men, where they get a red, amber or green wristband based on their current relationship/dating status to stop me developing crushes on men with a girlfriend/wife/penchant for other men’s willies. Do you think we could start a wristband idea for “nice men” and “bastards” and then “bastards who like to masquerade as nice men purely to get p*ssy and then turn into bastards as soon as THEY have cum” – opinions?

Everyday Makeup Picks

When it comes to applying a face full of make up, I think I’m not alone when I say that I like to take my time.  When I have a ‘big night out’ planned (this happens once in a blue moon) I like to make believe I’m performing some kind of great Monet piece of art work.  I lay out all of my tools around me and attempt to create a masterpiece upon my face in the hopes that I will end up looking like Adele or Christina Hendricks.   What usually ends up happening is that I get the base absolutely perfect, and then I mess it up by sneezing when applying my mascara (just me?)

My everyday make up routine takes a lot less time, mainly due to the fact that I prefer more minutes in bed sleeping to applying mascara.  Through experience and practise, I’ve managed to wittle my morning makeup routine down to 10 minutes.  For the average woman on the street this may still seem a lot - but its the quickest that I can get ready and make myself look like “me” and not like I’ve been pulled out of a drain.

I know those YouTube folk do “get ready with me” tutorials, but the world does not need to see me with no makeup and I’m also not up for opening myself up for “YOU SHOULDN’T APPLY YOUR FOUNDATION LIKE THAT” trolls, so I’ll simply share with you the contents of my everyday makeup bag.

Meet Ted.

I used to have a doggy. 

The short version of the story (and the one that makes me cry less) is that I had a doggy, Ruby, with my ex boyfriend.  We got her from the rescue center, had her for 5 years and we split up I apparently relinquished all rights to seeing my dog (I say that partly in rage, partly through blinked back tears).  Ruby was my little princess and I absolutely doted on her beautiful little face. I miss her unbelievably and I haven’t seen her or eskimo kissed her wet little nose since October. It  breaks my heart on a daily basis that I can’t see her/probably won’t see her again, but to me she will always be my little princess and will never ever be replaced.

I think when it comes down to it you’re either a dog or a cat person.  When bloggers were lining up, I think I missed the “must have a cat” gene, and instead was given a cat allergy (for this reason I will never ever be a genuine blogger).  I’ve always been brought up around dogs.  We have a family dog (who’s still going strong, despite his greyness) and then I had Miss Ruby with my ex.  Moving into a house as a singleton when you’re used to being part of a “family unit” is hard, I won’t lie.  You go from busy-ness and laughter and having people depend on you, to opening the front door every night to an empty house and rattling around alone.  Don’t get me wrong, I love my house, my singleton life and the freedom and opportunity that it brings…
