Mind Games

Ava says...

Why is it that men enjoy screwing with the female mind?

Now all you men out there might be thinking "what mind games? We don’t play mind games. The only things going on in our brains at any given time are sex, porn, video games, and sports, it’s women who play the mind games"...true but from past experience and from what I've witnessed my friends go through, has shown me that men like power, thus they exert said power on the female mind.

For instance, if you don't like a girl but all of your peers think that you do, don't make the girl believe these allegations too. "Ohhh he likes you I can tell" says peers, “He’s totally picturing you naked right now”. "Really" says girl...guy smiles, guy blushes, guy looks down at feet and walks away, guy tells friends to shut up in playful manner. Guy smiles even though he does not like this girl in the romantic sense....DO NOT SEND THESE SIGNALS. You don't like the girl? Then say so. "I don't like you like that" says guy. Granted it'll be tough to hear but in the long run it's better than the run around for x number of months just to please the warped minds of one's peers and to get your own shits and giggles. Seriously, the phrase “He’s just not that into you” kind of has some merit here….

Moving on....

"I'll call you at 10" *angry mouth sounds* If you do not have any plans to call at said time then don't set a particular time because you're setting yourself up for fall out...of the bad kind. We will think that you have left us, or that you are simply being a turd and we will be angry at you, even if you have simply forgotten. Secondly, it may not seem like such a big deal forgetting to call because granted, us girls have our moments too but to a FAR LESS degree. And don't think that our lives revolve around the fact that you said you would call us at 10 or that we will stop breathing if you don't call us on time...just don't be a turd.

Further to phone etiquette, what is with the “3 day rule”? Gentlemen, when a girl gives you her number, she WANTS you to call her, immediately, cut the shit. Trust me, if she didn’t want you to call her you would hear the rejected sounds of Pizza Hotline or “I’m sorry, this number is not in service” ringing in your ears. Or, you wouldn’t even get far enough to receive a fake phone number, she would have to find her friends, or wash her hair, or walk the dog, anything to avoid the awkward ‘no, I don’t want to give you my number’ song and dance. So really, why bother waiting three days? This isn’t 1937, us girls have things to do, so start dialing and get on with it….we’re not going to call you however, some traditions us girls need to keep alive. Besides the sooner you call, the sooner the courting process begins and the sooner YOU get laid, everybody wins.

"What are you thinking?"

worst question ever! Girls, stop asking this question...guys, if asked this question don't avoid the response...only makes us girls think that you're thinking of other women or masturbating, or cheetos. Trust me; women will NEVER believe that you’re not thinking of anything…even if it’s true…it doesn’t matter.

Men and women play too many games with each other. Sometimes I wish we could eliminate all the drama and all be like monkey's; pound your chest once if you like us, and twice if you think we smell like feet.
