I wrote on the card ‘I can’t stop thinking about you.’ Then I placed them in the corner of my room, on top of my entertainment center. My goal was to make sure that they were visible without making it seem like I was purposely trying to draw attention to them."
Wow. You're everything that's wrong with the human race. - ToyYoda, on 10/12/2007, -6/+48wow, she bought herself some roses just to get him to try harder? What an insecure bitch.
- toolow, on 10/12/2007, -2/+36I logged in just to dig you down.
- joeTaco, on 10/12/2007, -2/+24She fooled him into trying harder and spicing up their relationship. Therefore, she is an insecure, manipulative, smart bitch.
- bugsy187, on 10/12/2007, -6/+26I thought this was just going to be a post from some *****'s blog, but it's really a well written piece. It's also consistent with everything I've seen in dating. God help us. :)
- RuddO, on 10/12/2007, -7/+25Yeah, honestly, V has left a lot of us dazed and confused after whacking us with extremely insightful truth clubs.
- djntd, on 10/12/2007, -5/+23This bitch ain't normal.. she's f-ing crazy. Dudes stay away from chicks like this.
- humanerror, on 04/03/2008, -0/+17I'm amazed that this is still not common knowledge. I always make sure girls I date or girls I like see pictures of me with other girls, see evidence of other girls liking me, and happen to stumble upon pictures of my most attractive ex-girlfriends. There is no objective gauge for social status or "worth" as a mate in modern civilization. You create your desirability rank for yourself, and then make sure the members of the opposite sex learn about it.
Buying roses for yourself, like she did, is brilliant. And I guarantee it would work on me or any other man. I've dated girls who belong on magazine covers and would never even give me a second chance, except that when I made my move I made sure that she'd seen me with a very beautiful female friend hanging off of me first (as a pre-arranged favor. but she didn't need to know that).
It's not that I like being an ***** to girls I date, but I always do make sure that I'm always persisently clear on one point; if she walked out the door right now, she'd have to make way for another girl pushing past her to get in. And the fact that I act that way makes it true. - dasutin, on 10/12/2007, -0/+16I have to say that what she did was true. There all girls out there who do that kind of stuff to get what they want from men. They will play with you in the beginning only to suck you dry in the end. You gotta watch out for those girls. They are evil...
- Nocturnal, on 10/12/2007, -4/+19What does this lady look like? She talks as though she is God's gift to earth. She better look better than Jessica Alba and Kate Beckinsale with the way she's talking. Otherwise she can STFU.
- bitchfromhell, on 10/12/2007, -18/+33VA is at her prime today!!! This is actually an incredibly well-written piece - and SO true. Women are always competing with one another. I have to admit that I think EVERY woman has at some point found a man extremely attractive simply because he is already taken. It is the thrill of that chase that is so compelling and is what makes a man more attractive - well, not to say that most women act on that urge to steal a man away from his woman. But that urge is there - and I doubt anyone can actually deny that.
When VA said that dating is about manuevering and manipulations, that is so true. And it is when people get comfortable and start thinking that they've got a relationship locked in, that they end up getting betrayed or cheated on.
Yay! A day I agree with VA! - Ignignokt01, on 10/12/2007, -3/+18But this piece does.
- aliljet, on 10/12/2007, -4/+19rofl...
"Every time a man fawns all over his girlfriend because she had the benevolence to let him stick his pee pee in her, she starts to wonder if she could attract a guy who isn’t such a ***** tool." - jsreid, on 10/12/2007, -3/+17no, you just spend too much time on Digg
- SillyRabbits, on 10/12/2007, -4/+18Yep, huge signs there she is a drama queen. Buys herself flowers and a card to make the boyfriend jealous and pay her more attention? Are you kidding me? Fast forward 15 years and she'll be banging the gardener and office boy because she feels that her husband isn't paying her enough attention. Run away fast! Fast forward another 10 years and she'll be the mid 40's skanky divorced tramp in the bar that will take anything home.
- SillyRabbits, on 10/12/2007, -2/+16No issues at all with intelligent, confident, well-adjusted, and down-to-earth women. In fact, that's exactly what I (and most men) look for. However, what she says is exactly the opposite of what intelligent, confident, well-adjusted women do. It's what insecure, unstable, overly dramatic, catty women do. It's not that I have a problem with her being honest in what she thinks, it's just that it revealed a lot more than she probably intended it to (and she doesn't realize it).
I also won't disagree that there are a lot of women like that out there (or that the techniques will work). However, unless I just want to "play the field", those aren't the type of women I'd want to be attracting in the first place. - djntd, on 10/12/2007, -1/+13The fact that she is in her 30's and married makes his comment even more relevant
- JonForTheWin, on 10/12/2007, -1/+13"To me, that suggested that there were some real feelings between Jack and his girl. Maybe they were even in love. Upon that realization, my mild interest abruptly turned to ‘I have to have him.’"
That's EXACTLY how girls think that I've been telling others over and over again since I was 14. They are EVIL I tell you! - delaen, on 10/12/2007, -5/+17Um, you do realize that she's a married woman in her 30's, right?
- remo2012, on 10/12/2007, -7/+18
Girls like this will never have true love, have pity for her and any guy that would date her. - brstilson, on 10/12/2007, -0/+11I've known a couple women like VA. They all have one thing in common. They validate their behavior by saying "all women do this!" It's a classic "I am the world" fallacy. No, girls are not genetically bitches and obsessed with competition. This happens because they were raised in certain communities or homes where the popular idea is to raise your daughter as if she is a "princess." The only problem is that very few of them let that idea go, and carry into their adult life.
The problem with men who can't get dates is that they were told early in life the three words that comprise the worst dating advice known to mankind: "Just Be Yourself." So some poor sap takes this to heart. Only problem is, it never works, and he's confused. He thinks that maybe he's not being himself "enough" so he just tries harder. The problem with JBY is that very few people in their younger years don't have a real grasp on who they are yet. This ironically leads them to do things that they don't normally do. If you're a sappy loser, "Just being yourself" isn't going to get you dates. You have to change who "yourself" is first. - MicroBerto, on 10/12/2007, -1/+12I like the article because it's not uncommon to get this type of behavior from young girls. Nothing she says is new -- especially the part that most girls grow out of this.
I assume that many diggers are like myself and simply won't put up with this *****. I still don't (25 now). And for that, I was never too successful with single women in my teens.
What'd I do?
At around 21, I discovered older women (ie 28-35 range). They're *magnitudes* better in bed, they don't do this crap nearly as much, and quite frankly, I'm attracted to them.
Older women know what they want and they are good to a guy who doesn't want to deal with relationship nonsense. Usually they're cool with the fact that I'm all-nonsense in every other sense of the word too... an added bonus. - meepus, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9This is either a satire, or really pathetic.
- Nocturnal, on 10/12/2007, -3/+12She's an attention whore. That is exactly what she is. By putting her on the front page of digg - she gets exactly what she craves, attention.
- RedZone09, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8This lady sounds absolutely crazy
- SillyRabbits, on 10/12/2007, -4/+12Nope, didn't realize that. She sure sounds like the mid 20's bimbos that many guys try to avoid though. The type that thinks Sex and the City is the ideal life. It's just my opinion, but if she's married, I feel sorry for her husband. She doesn't sound like the type that will last long in a marriage. I only say that because I've seen a lot of friends with marriages that didn't work and she seems to share a lot of traits that those wives had. Just what I have observed.
- fhernand, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8"Now, the hall to my bedroom was decorated with 5 full length mirrors."
it figures... - 3dom, on 10/12/2007, -3/+10If you have to buy yourself roses to fool your boyfriend, chances are your relationship is going nowhere fast. trust is the basis of all relationships and once you start to violate that for your own gains you are being selfish and _eventually_ this kind of behaviour will bite you in the ass. the point being if you really are right for one another you don't have to do all this stupid competitive ***** it comes more or less naturally...just my .02
- Soozie, on 10/12/2007, -2/+9Have faith, not all women are like that.... just the hellishly insecure ones. Not all of us measure our self-worth by how many men we can screw over.
- hexalite, on 10/12/2007, -3/+10The entire article is about this Jack guy... and then this:
“I was thinking that we would skip the movie,” John replied, “I’ve got something else in my mind.”
John?
She's had so many she can't even get them straight anymore. - Kahnza, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8I hate people. Asperger's AHOY!
or not :( - qshady, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6@KmartSherriff
Yes yes yes yes yes!! That is so true. I am sooooo sick of hearing my single nerdy guy friends complain that "nice guys finish last" when they are some of the biggest pussies I've ever met. They let women walk all over them, then have a pity party when females don't respect them, and thus don't want to be with them. If a guy can't stick up for himself, there's no way that he will stick up for his lady, and no lady wants to be with a jellyfish like that. - WombatRising, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6VA is in ur Diggz
Burying ur comments - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6Her face probably looks like my old catcher's mitt.
- KMartSheriff, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8Too bad most "nice guys" are pussies.
I'm not saying they should be jerks, but for *****'s sake they could try being assertive once in a while at least. - 3zero3, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6For ***** sake, why don't we just get this bitch her own column on Digg and save someone the trouble every time.
- givemereplay, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6I believe your story proves that you are just like what the article says.
- SillyRabbits, on 10/12/2007, -10/+15Wow, look how much she's changed from the time she was 19. What is she now? 23? I sure sounds like it. Wait until she is 30 and writes a similar piece about what an idiot she was now. She sounds like someone that has never had a single "serious" relationship.
- dylanrjones, on 10/12/2007, -13/+18I'm going to have to disagree with most of the above posters. She is "normal". That's not to say she isn't manipulative or maybe a bit insane, but let's face it, that's what a normal girl is. Having said that, I agree with every word she writes, and anyone who doesn't simply doesn't understand women that well. (Who would know better, an actual woman, or a nerd in his mom's basement?)
Ok nerds, start clicking the red thumb - countmandible, on 11/15/2007, -1/+6@nuclearbomb
Wow. Really? Wow. - smackywentz, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6you're so cool
- urbanknight, on 10/12/2007, -4/+9Yeah, frankly No thanks.
Its uppity manipulative bitches that corrupt what is left of the nice guys and make us hate you too. - unknownsoldierX, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4This WAS a great read. Absolutely true.
"The self depreciating man who tells his girlfriend that he’s lucky she loves him because no one else will is begging her to suck his best friend’s dick"
Words to live by. LMFAO. - humanerror, on 04/03/2008, -1/+5MicroBerto:
Absolutely. Being able to appreciate an older woman shows the true sophistication of a man.
Sinai:
Shhh!! Shut up, dude! We need people like him so there'll be more young and attractive females for the rest of us. - davymac, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4wussy, lol.. grow a testicle hair for once in your life.. she explains her side of things.. its really her summation at the end that is the best part i believe.. dont be a wussy weiner that acts like a "tool" and have some sense of confidence that you can attract other women if this one doesnt work out.. just have a better outlook of yourself and girls usually can see you have ur ***** together..
- 3dom, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Wow. I just checked the article and 'john' doesnt appear once. However I checked duggmirror and it turns out she's edited it between your post and mine to read 'jack'. As she is such a prolific digg submittee I'd imagine she read this page and hastily corrected it.
- TheBowerbird, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4For those of you saying that "love" isn't about competition, think again. The whole of life is all about reproductive competition, from the smallest bacteria to the largest whale. Like it or not, we too are wired to compete in the mating game. These blurry, sugary ideals that you have about boy meets girl and falls in love for happily ever after are dead wrong. There are behaviors, attitudes, and circumstances that the wiring of our brain instinctively responds to. To say anything else is to deny human nature. Women are indeed competitive over the best males, but how they choose those males often has as much to do with the time of month, as to the social dominance or status or male. Males too are competitive amongst themselves, this is what jealousy is all about. Furthermore, we are not necessarily a monogamous species, we are monogamous opportunists. For more on this, do a little research on our testicle size.
- shosterman, on 10/12/2007, -2/+6You fail at comprehension.
Her article is all about the competition within dating. She states that instinctively we compete against others of the same gender, ie. women dress to compete with each other and not to impress the man. Her purchase of the roses had nothing to do with insecurity or being self-centered, it was simply a test. A test that proved that women aren't the only competitors in dating game. - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Meh, I'd rather be single and have occasional flings than deal with scheming and all the BS she describes. I'm always honest with girlfriends and if they find something better, great, I'm happy for them.
I'm also vehemently opposed to the reality matrix that has been imposed on me so I tend to be contrary out of reflex. Play the game? Yeah, go FUC% yourself, says I. - voyagingvoyeur, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Are you really jaded enough to believe that "Only emasculated, weak men claim to be "happily married."?"
Just because you have not found happiness doesn't mean that there aren't men out there who haven't. Your comment makes me feel a little sad for you. -
