if you like it don't put a ring on it!

you know what guys i'm gonna admit it,

i am defiantly the girl at the cinema weeping at the romantic climax of a movie and i'm defiantly the one increasing my popcorn portion size when its the part of the film where everything is resolved and the man and women live happily ever after and have a dog called rex and have snowball fights with there children BUT i'm not sure if you've heard but ermmm life is not like the movie my dear. life is a ball of @#!$ and we just have to live with that fact.

now i'm not sure if its just me but waaaaaayyyyyy too many young people are getting married recently and i'm quite alarmed TBH. i think its amazing to be in love and bla bla bla but i would never even dream of getting married so young. not because i love any less than the next girl but because i actually want my relationship to work.

i don't blame girls who get married young because they don't realize how different their relationship will be once they are married.

here is a news flash honey, marriage means: no more dates, no more flowers, no more loving messages, no more excitement and no more fun. i hate to rain on your parade here girls but....your gonna have to wash your husbands boxers with skid marks on them and your gonna love doing it because you picked this life.

this is how i see marriage at a young age;

you know when you turned 16 and you were allowed piercings and so you pierced your ear, then your nose, then your belly, then your ear again, then your ear again then when you ran out of space so you pierced your nipple and now you have a body full of holes and most days you even forget to wear earrings .... yeah, that's basically marriage at a young age.

you get caught up in the emotion and you want to get married, you want to have this perfect home but then 2 years down the line you look at your life and you have nothing to look forward to romantically in the future.

i honestly believe you should live life at a natural pace and pace your life so you always have something to look forward to because you might realize one day that you lived your life before its time and your life is now left with no direction. i remember when i first got to uni, it meant freedom from the constraints of your parents home and so me and my friends went out raving 5 times a week for 3 months! 5 times!! and now 3 years later i feel nothing when i'm at a club. in fact after an hour i want to go home and have a tea. its sad to think i will probably never enjoy raving again like i did before and that's because i lived it too fast too soon. its like marriage. Say you got married at 23, at 30 what have you got left to give your partner? i think this is why most marriages fail. Perhaps you grow apart and then you may resent your partner because you may feel they have taken your youth and you missed out on some things.

there's a time for everything and the key is to live life and enjoy it because life is short but not in a sense that you aren't given enough years but in the sense that time fly's by and you always miss the past. so if you've fallen in love with someone, don't rush it! you never know if 2 years down the line that person will remain the same because people really do change and you may not like the new person they become. what would you do then? that's why our mothers told us to focus on school because they knew first hand the consequences of getting caught up in the delusion of love. 'the course of true love never did run smooth' so embrace the argument and learn from the mistakes just because your not married doesn't mean its not forever because if he wanted to run off with someone else he would have and he still could, ring or no ring. when you finally settle down it will be build on strong ground and you will be there because you want to be there not because you got married too soon and now you feel trapped. if its meant to be it will be! so please, for the love of all things pink and sparkly, don't rush love.

and if you haven't met mr right DON'T PANIC he's on his way but i hear there's a slight delay on the hammersmith and city line

this is why you single!

ok ok,

so i'm not the virgin Mary or Mother Teresa but whatev's i'm gonna go ahead and write this post because i'm damn tired of the same sh*t i just wanna shake somebody! hard!

correct me if i'm wrong here ladies, but how many single girls do u know that WANT a man but do 328942384 things wrong. 

i know a few and you know what most of these girls are actually 'girl friend' material but its just down to the innocent mistakes their making and some of them.....well some of them.... their just a lost cause 2bh.

now here is a run down of the kinds of girls that get it wrong and how these girls do wrong and brace yourself sista because it might get all kinda political here:

EXHIBIT A: NEEDY NORA 

so here's the deal with needy Nora. she meets a guy, they seem to be getting along. they exchange numbers and they start txting. after a few days of quite frequent txting the boy leaves his phone on the side to have a bath. and this is how Nora handles the situation

8.15 'Hi babe just a quick txt to see what your up to'

8.16 ' i see your busy'

8.17 'i cant believe your ignoring me'

8.17 'is it over? '

8.18 ' i gave you the best days of my life!'

8.18 'its someone else isnt it! i never want to speak to you again!' 

8.20 'im killing myself now this is my last message to you. we could have been something out of the movies but now we will never be' 

8.21 ' ok im still alive im sorry about everything please take me back!' 

8.21 fred txt back nora\; 'nora? i was in the bath wtf!'

8.21 ' it wasnt me my friend took my phone and sent you all those messages' 

the next time fred doesn't txt back in 2.5mins Nora will repeat this cycle. 

if you're a Nora just admit it. i wont tel if you don't but please for the love of cupid stop pressuring the man! if hes not txting you back straight away he could be playing hard to get, or playing a game or having a shower or have diarrhea! we dont know hes life!

take a chill pill and relax.

EXHIBIT B: MY-SHIT-DOESN'T-STINK SARAH 

Now sarah is the girl on the bus talking loudly on the phone telling her friend 'if my man doesnt have a car he isn't getting anywhere with me' why YOU on the bus sarah? huh?

Sarah is the girl that expects 101 things from her man that she doesn't poses herself and this is where sarah is going wrong. in real life prince charming doesn't exist and NOONE is prefect so if sarah is saying no to shane because hes trousers are too baggy and no to mike because his phone wasn't an I phone and no to jake because he wears glasses she will never ever find a man, because what sarah needs to remember is that Shane will wear out his trousers and buy new one's and mike will get an upgrade soon and jake can get contact lenses. see sarah! this is compromise  you need to set realistic goals and not expect too much from people because they may offer you something more valuable like love? or companionship? furthermore, you cant expect so much from people if your at a certain period of your life where you cant fulfill the same requirements  so for you sarah's out there you need to get your priorities sorted and need i tell you to get your heads out of your ass's

EXHIBIT C: EASY EMILY

Now easy emily makes the mistake of sleeping with a guy too soon because she thinks that he'll like her faster or that he's different and he will appreciate this gesture more than the 87 girls before her. what easy emily has to understand is that guys will never respect a girl if they give up all the goodies on the first night (or day) and even if he does call you after this, it will be for sex and nothing more meaningful. you may not even ever go on a date with this person but easy emily will go to see this guy for a long time in the hopes that maybe this time it will mean more, but it never will. so easy emily needs to display her personally before she displays her  underwear and she will soon find the right person for her.

EXHIBIT D: TOO SEXY STACY

Too sexy stacy is a little similar to easy emily because like emily, stacy thinks sex sells and so she takes half-naked-sexified pictures of herself and flaunts them to every passer by of her bbm, whatsapp, FB or twitter. when too sexy stacy goes out on the town less is more FYI im talking about clothing not sex appeal. she will dress in underwear on Halloween and not anything more on normal days because she thinks every guy that looks at her wants her. yes shes right, 20% will want to have sex with her but the other 80% are putting bets down for how many STI's she has. seriously too sexy stacy, tone it down women! you want to leave your desired man with a little sense of mystery. you wouldn't wonder whats on a scratch card that's already been scratched and so you wouldn't wonder whats underneath someones cloths if their not wearing any. if you carry yourself with more class, men are more likely to value you and in turn you might find mr right.

EXHIBIT E: BOSSY BETTY

bossy betty is forever singing 'miss independent' and that's good, rock on sista! but if she doesn't want to keep putting her hands up to 'single ladies' she needs to stop being such a feminist  I'm all for girl power but when you have a go at your date for holding the door for you because you think hes insulting you, things get a\ little tricky. you cant be on the defense all the time if you don't want to keep frighting away men. yes, you know your worth, yes your sassy but if he want to treat you to dinner don't be so offended  maybe you can pay for drinks? i know you know what you want and your not settling for less probably because you've had you heart broken one too many times but will you please take it down a notch because even your cat is scared of you! what bossy betty needs to do is show her man she knows what she wants without sounding patronizing or ungrateful. when she gets to know her man a little better she can slowly release her inner diva. 


Well, i hope this helped girls!

go get em!
