| IMPORTANT: RULES FOR GETTIN' SOME..
..so maybe not forreal getting that far, but definitely to score some points.
here's a list of random rules for trying to get with a person like me. i found some on a site from one of my favorite people, but otherwise just read. it's gooood..
1. IT PAYS TO BE A GENTLEMAN. Chivalry isn't dead, yknow? It's flattering for a girl. We may not always seem appreciative, but trust me, we will brag about you to our friends about you later.
2. PDA IS NOT A CRIME. I'm not a big fan of PDA, but it doesn't hurt to show a little love, yknow? Holding hands isn't a bad thing, and hugs are natural. Maybe an occasional kiss, but do not expect for me to make out with you in public. If i can't stand to see other people having it off in public, chances are that they don't want to see me at it either.
3. THEY'RE CALLED EX'S FOR A REASON. Do not mention her to me, ever. I don't care who the fuck she is and I don't care what the hell you two might have had. If you haven't gotten over her, then you better do it soon. I don't want to be your rebound. If you aren't even over her, then it was an idiotic thing to go getting with another person so soon. If you can't take your breakup by yourself, do not expext me to help you. I'm not there as a relationship backup. Just get over it.
4. OBSESSIVE COMPULSIVE. There are fine lines between like, love, and obsession. You do not need to know absolutely everything that I do, nor I to you. I understand privacy as well as I'd like to have some too. Maybe it's nice to call or leave me a message once in a while, but leaving notes or messages every five minutes is overkill. You do not need to bother all of my friends asking of my wherabouts. You are not my parole officer, and I shouldn't feel like you're stalking me.
5. I DO NOT OWN YOU. Yes, we should understand that I am your 'girlfriend', but I am not your mother. You do not need to ask me if you are allowed to hang out with your own friends. I understand that you want to have time to yourself without me. As I give you your free time, let me have a little of my own every once in a while. And when I do, DO NOT think that I am trying to avoid you. That would just label you an idiot.
6. MOODSWINGS. I hate tempers. I have one of my own. If you aren't in the mood for something, at least tell me. I will gladly give you some time to chill out. All I'm saying is that TWO ill tempered people aren't a good mix. Hostility isn't a thing I like to center myself around.
7. HYGIENE. Why not? It honestly doesn't hurt to shower and change clothes. Especially if we notice it. It's fun to hug and cuddle with a person who smells nice. It is not fun to feel groped by a person who smells like last week's meatloaf.
8. DON'T PUSH ME. You can't force a person to have feelings for you. You can't force me to say anything. Give me a reason to think about it, and then don't pressure me at all. The more pressure you put on me about things, the less I find it reasonable for me to answer honestly.
9. PERSONALITY. Looks won't get you anywhere with me, although they are a plus. Make me laugh and you are definitely on my good side. I don't easily criticize, but if I do, it's usually in a playful manner. Thus said, don't be afraid to be a dork in front of me. I don't want to spend my time worrying whether or not laughing makes me look stupid. It's better just feeling comfortable.
10. INTELLIGENCE CAN BE SEXY. But a smart ass is just an ass. I don't want to have my I.Q. drop just by being in your presence, though I don't mind a childish sense of things. I just want to talk with a person more than about just sports or movies.
11. CONVERSATION. It's one thing to be able to talk to a person easily, but another to be able to talk to a person about absolutely everything (except for ex's). I'd like to feel like I can run to you for advice or a second opinion. If you notice that we have trouble in the talking department, do not expect for me to continue a relationship based absolutely nothing on conversation.
12. PERSONAL RELATIONSHIPS. What goes on between us is absolutely nobody's buisiness. The world doesn't need to know our personal lives.
13. HONESTY AND RESPONSIBILITY. Tell me the truth. As honesty is the best policy, I will respect you more telling me a bad truth, than some bullshit lie. And if you know you did something that you know I wouldn't like, tell me about it before I find out myself. Why the hell did you do it in the first place?
14. PATIENCE IS A VIRTUE. If you want something from me, give me time. Trust, love, respect and other such emotions are earned, not passed out like candy. Prove to me that I can confide in you and you will recieve gratitude. To break such bonds isn't an easy thing to repair. Try as you will to mend the mistakes, the damage is there like a scar and nothing will ever compensate for your actions.
15. SEX. There's nothing wrong with being a nympho, but I'm not falling for a whore. There is such a thing as a 'past' but I like to think that you haven't "been around the block" more than just a couple times. I do not appreciate birthday presents like gonorrhea.
16. JEALOUSY. I do not need to feel as if I were owned. You do not need to keep tabs on me every second, and you do not need to get angry any time I approach anything male. Firstly, I understand that at times I seem somewhat flirtacious, but think of this: I AM WITH YOU. If I wanted someone else, I wouldn't have considered you. Secondly, you must realize that I am not restricted to only having female friends. I have found it somewhat easier to relate and converse with males than it is females. It's not that I am flirting or that you are being replaced, I just need to talk with someone who isn't bound to me. I found that guys are more likely to give quick and honest opnions. If you can't handle this, then tough luck in the long run.
17. IF YOU CAN'T TAKE THE HEAT, TAKE A SEAT. I know I may be a bit difficult at times, but please, just deal with it. I am easy to get along with. Follow the rules, and I'll play fair.
18. I CAN NOT CHANGE WHO I AM. If there's something about me that you have diffuculties tolerating, you must realize that it is a part of who I am and it is not likely I can change this so easily. You get what you bargained for, and this deal lacks any change. You can tell me, of course, if there were something that you found inadmirable to your standards, but do not expect a drastic change in a short span of time. If you don't like it, run home.
19. I AM FILIPINA. One hell of a lot of food. What do you find so difficult about that?
-- As all good things come to an end, I'll leave this at nineteen for now. If anyone plans on copying any of my laws, then please, notify me in advance. I took my own time to relate to other people and create my own standards, as you should do yourself. You are NOT me, so you must therefore differ in several drastic ways. In any other case, I am not looking for a significant other, or denying myself one. Nor am I 'putting myself out there'. As there are many fish in the sea, I have my time and don't feel any rush in breaking in a new boyfriend.
love always from yours truly.
