INCOHERENT RANT for June 6, 2000


Random Rantings:

Ok, what's the deal with girlfriends? I know you are all probably tired of me ranting about this particular subject, but really.... For those of you with little or no experience at this, or for those women out there who can't sympathize, I have a little quiz for you....

Question 1

You (the man) have an argument with your girlfriend. You should...

a) stick to your guns because you know you are right.

b) compromise to find a middle ground so you will both be happy.

c) give it up and admit you are screwed because you will end up being the bad-guy either way it turns out.

Question 2

You find a pair of men's underwear in the apartment that isn't your's. You should...

a) demand to know whose they are and not relent until you know the truth.

b) accept any explanation she gives you because you really love her and trust her.

c) give it up and admit you are screwed because you will end up being the bad-guy either way it turns out.

Question 3

She throws a fit about something that is either totally insigficant to you or isn't your fault. You should...

a) be adamant in protesting your innocence and demand that she stop this childish behavior.

b) try to reason with her and reach an agreement between the two of you so that you both are satisfied and want to continue the relationship.

c) give it up and admit you are screwed because you will end up being the bad-guy either way it turns out.

Question 4

You actually do something bad (it happens, so don't pretend like it doesn't). For months after the initial apology, she still naggs you about it. You should...

a) demand that the initial apology should still stand and defy her attempts to get you to apologize some more.

b) talk to her in an attempt to understand her feelings about the matter and, if necessary, apologize some more.

c) give it up and admit you are screwed because you will end up being the bad-guy either way it turns out.

Final Question

You have a fight in the morning and neither of you want to talk to the other until the afternoon. You should...

a) wait for her to call you because heaven forbid you actually give in to a woman.

b) call her and offer to talk things out because you really love her and hope she feels the same way.

c) give it up and admit you are screwed because you will end up being the bad-guy either way it turns out.

Ok, tabulate your answers.

If you answered "a" 3 times or more, you will probably have a meaningful relationship with one of those women who repeatedly tells her friends, "I know he tried to kill me, but I still love him." Don't sleep too soundly, OK?

If you answered "b" 3 times or more, you will probably have a meaningful realationship with a woman and repeatedly tell your friends, "I know she tried to kill me, but I still love her." That is if she lets you out of your cage to go see your friends.

If you answered "c" three times or more, you are just about ready for a serious relationship.

If you answered "c" five times... Post your picture and bio on the internet, you will have a thousand marriage proposals in less than five minutes....

I guarantee it!

I need a real job...
