DO YOU!
My friend is reading the book, "The Art of Seduction". It totally sounds like a porno-move Kama Sutra book, but it's not. It's about the psychology behind getting someone to like you back. The summary says, "This book covers the rules of a timeless, amoral game and explores how to cast a spell, break down resistance, and, ultimately, compel a target to surrender."
How twisted is that? If someone doesn't like you, for whatever reason, then trying to "cast a spell" on them is not going to make things much better. Shara and I joke about "hypnotizing", but that's a whole different story. Though I have struggled with my independence, and stalker-esque hunting tactics, I do believe that reading a book to learn better tactics is slightly ridiculous.
Luckily, I think 499 out of every 500 guys are a douche, so it's not often that I get presented with this problem. When I finally do meet one worth liking, I have to go into it with the assumption that he will see my daily outrageousness and run with terror. Sorry dude, I just do me, and if you can't handle a little bit of the Swan, then it really is a good idea to abort immediately. As "someone" and I were discussing how crazy this book was, my friend told me what they book says about the "loud, funny, witty, creative type".
Basically, the book tells this type of girl that the only way to get a guy to like you is to "become more dull". I want to cry. How can this be a good piece of advice? Since when has it ever been a good idea to change yourself for someone else. Unless it's dropping the bottle, getting a stronger deodorant, or becoming a better person, DON'T EVER change yourself so a guy will like you. I have spent my entire life giving 110% towards being my own person, standing out, and being the exact opposite of anything normal or dull. I think it's kind of disgusting that the author thinks they have some kind of power to give people incredibly shitty advice.
You gotta DO YOU people, all day, regardless! DO YOU!
Did you really just poke me? I sure hope not! Maybe you have a virus, and some hacker poked all of your friends. Hopefully. Surely you don't still think it's 2004, and poking is still acceptable. I am pissed that your poke is just pending on my home page, and I even have to be given the option to poke you back.
Poke me again,
and I'm de-friending you.
Period.
