A Man's Field Guide to Women: The Good Girl

The Good Girl:




-         General Characteristics – Attractive, Single, never been married and no one knows why, especially her. Her dating life has been a series of lessons learned the hard way. And while the numbers out there are not great for women in urban areas, those numbers fall short in explaining this phenomenon. The real problem is that they have discarded their own womanly intuition, which would tell them the winners from the losers, if they would just listen.

-         Found in – In church, out with other single women or on a date with some bum, who’ll be on to the next one next month, if not next week. 

-         Relations after Marriage – Great, if she marries the right man.

-         Fidelity – Very good.

-         Finances – Above Average.

-         Chances – She’s dated smoother and better looking guys than you, so your chances are just so, so.

-         Future prospects – Most women in the world, first look for a man’s ability to provide when looking for a mate. Secondly, they look for his willingness to do so (i.e. is he an honorable and kind man who honors his commitments). And then, depending on the woman’s culture, several other qualities may come into play before the all important “how he looks in his jeans” criteria. But The Good Girl missed the memo. If she likes the way he looks (and looks are important, as they do indicate, to some degree, the health of a potential mate) or heaven forbid hooks up with him, she immediately begins to project glowing characteristics upon the guy, who she hardly knows (“Oh, he’s so smart, cares about the poor and he’s going to be releasing an album next month”). She’s had so much dating drama that she may devolve into “Ms. Underrated” and begin to under value herself. Oh, if these ladies would learn that if they would just slow down, and stop looking so hard to be “in love”, these bums would play themselves. If you’ve got a sister, daughter or friend, hopelessly stuck on the in love carousel, please point them to my The Relations Ten Commandments for Women.
