I thought I would throw out some basic advice to younger guys about women.
1. You can only date a woman you are attracted to but realize that no matter how she looks, she is going to get old and wrinkly. So make sure you like more than just her looks.
2. If a woman is constantly complaining about how other guys are stalking her or sexually harassing her, don't attempt to protect her from those men. Ditch her. She will say the same about you later.
3. If there is always drama in her life, ditch her. She will cause drama in your life later.
4. If a woman only likes to hang out with guy friends, don't expect that to change after you are in a relationship.
5. If she will not lose weight before you get married, she won't after you get married.
6. Take a good hard look at her mother. If you can't imagine sleeping with someone that looks like her mother in 20 years, ditch her.
7. If she believes in "soul mates," ditch her. She will make you miserable for not meeting up to the expectation.
8. If she cries during the movie "The Notebook," ditch her. You can never live up to that movie.
9. If she is always broke and spending all of her money, ditch her. She will spend all of your money too.
10. If you don't find her attractive without makeup on, ditch her. You will see her without makeup all the time.

number 6 scares me. I swear, I'm going to end up more like my father, than my mother.
You are wise, sir. All of these are very good bits of advice. :)
wow
your next blog should be advice for women by dan :)
It's all fine and dandy that you've basically put out warning signs here... but what about the good stuff? What about, "signs that she's a keeper"?
LOL so true...ditch all women...celibacy is the answer :P
Haha, this was a good read.
there is truth and wisdom here.
Nicely put!
1-5 are very, very true.
6 I don't care about the validity, just eww! *lol*
9-10 very true & simultaneously funny.
8 - I would hope she can differentiate real life from fantasy though you're right... not all women do even if they can.
7 - I believe in soul mates. Though not the wishy washy kind. More the couples who make it to "death do us part" (and actually were married 10+ years before that point) I would consider soul mates. I see soul mates as a couple who have gone through their fair share of hard times & gotten through them together. A couple who are willing to fight for what they have together & work to continue to love one another (because it isn't always easy).
PS - Did you really come up with all this? If so, bravo.
lol
6-B: If you spend too long staring at her mother or thinking about this one, then she should ditch you.
This is why I go for very old ladies. That way, I don't have to worry about what they'll look like when they're wrinkly and odds are their mothers are dead so I don't have to imagine sleeping with them.
Hit it and quit it, then you don't have to deal with someone bitching at you.
@ShimmerBodyCream - I tried that but I got arrested for domestic battery. I think I misunderstood the hit it part.
Not even Princess Buttercup makes the cut.
@ShimmerBodyCream - So why do you keep bitching at me? SNAP.
I think you've just eliminated about 99.95% of women.
I believe in soul mates, but not too high expectations. Arguing and stuff are normal.
no wonder no one wants me
@Legendairy - AMEN@QuantumStorm - Funny list: When her parents are llloooooaaaadddeeedddd and in their late 90's. When she knows how to make cheesecake from scratch. When she has an autographed Bob Seger record. When she has more football jerseys than you do. When she knows every word to Sweet Home Alabama, AND Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer.
The serious (uncomprehensive) list:
When just talking to her gives you a peace you didn't believe existed. When she's patient. When she can listen as well as she can talk. When she wants to do things you're interested in, just because you're interested in them.
LOL
That last bit about makeup is too true.. not gonna lie!
@MochaSprinkle - I agree, it's true! THEY don't wear make up, EVER, so I mean, you know.....
@chaospet - I disagree, but then again I tend to forget that lots of people are out of touch with reality... or are too young to have reality figured out. (for the record, I'm not referring to you or anyone in particular)
Of the 7 of the 10 that are dependent on the woman's behavior (and not the man's opinion) I wouldn't fall into the 'ditch her' category. Surely I'm not the only one... ladies?
