Some advice for guys from links which popped up within minutes of each other, so I thought I’d share them.

1. this is fucking it, you are in love with me.

   This is for the guys who are wondering why ‘nice guys finish last’ holds true for them. When I was younger, I used to feel that way a lot. But I think the good thing was that I never stopped trying, I never stopped taking chances and I just kept on learning. This was one of the things I learnt along the way, and I’m glad someone has put it so… eloquently.

   “You are so in love with me that you are so unbelievably ready to ruin our friendship for a chance at love. That you are willing to pick up that bat and attempt to hit the ball out of the fucking stadium. Because either you strike out or you hit a home run.”

2. Men lose their minds speaking to pretty women.

   This is for awareness. I know it happens to me too so I try to manage it when I realise it’s happening to me e.g. take some time to pause and reflect on what is being said/asked. What’s important is that you stay in control of the conversation – but don’t dominate it.

   “…research shows men who spend even a few minutes in the company of an attractive woman perform less well in tests designed to measure brain function than those who chat to (sic) someone they do not find attractive.”

I think love must be simple enough for it not to be complex,
but complex enough for it not to be over-simplified.

Tan Hong Ming on love.

Race is what? Race car ah?

He, she, me, we.

1. 2016 Eeny Teeny Maya Moe. – “This is a great thing for you: you went from sitting on the sidelines to getting in the game! Sometimes, when you least expect it, you realise that someone loved you. That means someone can love you again. That’ll make you smile.”
2. 1304 Eat, Pray, Queef. -”You really think women care that much about queefing? Is that really what you think this has all been about? This has been about women having a little bit of fun for once, at your expense. For just this one time, we could be the immature ones to make you feel uncomfortable. But no – you just couldn’t let us have that one, little thing, could you? Because even though things are getting better for women, you still think of us as lesser people sometimes, and we always have to prove ourselves twice as hard. Congratulations, guys. For getting your way. Again.”

Something Old By Laremy Lee The aisle has been swept, the guests are seated, and the ceremony is about to begin. But just when everything seems to be going according to plan, two uninvited guests arrive. Benjamin, the groom, must explain as best he can why he has not invited these two guests – a particularly difficult task, given that they are his own parents.

Hope to see you there!
