One of my guy friends just told me something that was so profound, i just had to share.
A man knows when he wants something and he will do whatever he needs to get it. Don't be fooled by talk of I'm not sure, I have to test drive it to see if it's the right one for me. After all, they don't test drive at the auction. You see a car you want, you might check the engine, but you already know if you want it or not.
I just about died from laughing cos i didn't expect the end. How true is that?! Makes perfect sense to me. Which explains countless stories of girls who date guys for eons and as soon as they break up, within 6 months the guy is engaged/married to someone else. You hear stories like that all the time. A really good friend of mine did it too. Not sure if i've ever mentioned it on this blog (probably did). He dated this chic for about 3-4 yrs, she had 4 abortions for him and within 2 months of breaking up with her (for the final time, i guess. They had a rocky relationship cos she wanted to get married and he wasn't ready plus other relationship drama), this dude was telling me he is engaged. I was like to whom? Your girlfriend? He said no, a childhood/family friend. I thot he was joking. Less than 6 months, this dude had gone to carry wine on her head. They just had their first child. I asked him why he did that, and he told me, when you see the right person, you just know.
I'm sure there's more to it than that but that's the long and short of the gist.

wow men sha.......
ReplyDeleteInfact this test drive thingy tire me sef..... We can never really understand these dudes now, can we?! God help us.......lol
ReplyDeletethat is so true i have had similar stories myself countless times and sometimes i believe women see that their is no future in the relationship from the get go but hang in there just in case and then end up broken hearted that is why i always advocate letting your intentions known as a female if you are looking to settle down before getting in too deep that way if he is not looking for the same (or maybe you are just not the one) then keep it moving and look for someone else and never assume that the guy you are dating wants the same things as you that is the biggest mistake you can make get clarifications early enough and make an informed decision.
ReplyDeleteYour guy friend is right... men already know what they want, all those test driving na just gist.
ReplyDeleteAnd your other friend is right too...when you meet the right person, you just know.
:) spent some part of saturday wondering if there will be a real "what he really wants" article or even book like "he's just not that into you". actual interviews from guys speaking or sharing their thoughts...then reading your post... cars,test drive...lol
ReplyDeletei am no relationship specialist but i think also, that there is more to it than 'a gut feeling' or test driving
We guys know what we want from a glance. If a guy wants to marry a guy he does it fast, no time to waste time. If a girl is engaged January and says her wedding is December, it's obvious she cornered the guy and he would likely walk out.
ReplyDelete4 ABORTIONS FOR HIM??????....this is what pissed me off, not the 3-4yrs wasted useless years of dating..but 4 freaking abortions????..risking her life and uterus???
ReplyDeleteI always say it, long-time relationship is not the best, it is FEW that makes it to the altar.
sting says???...oh scorpio, make up your mind abeg!...shiooo! :D
