Confessions of a London gal...

A friend of mine sent this article to me. He thinks it's a lotta bull and so do I....

But i wanted to share my take on it with you guys anyway...


The Games Men Play

Whilst I dont think any girl should give 'it' up (by 'it' I mean herself, sex and her emotions) just because they think it would get them in good graces with a guy, I think playing the hard to get routine is so retro. I understand there are times its called for, but the best times I have had in my life, are when I dont over think everything and just go with the flow...

So what if you kiss a guy on the 1st date? Does that make you any less the woman you are? Any man that thinks any less of you because you went past 1st base earlier than some other women would so aint worth your time...

2. Realize that he wants be the “man." Games are often about boosting a man’s ego. If a guy waits to call you, he feels he is keeping you at his mercy. If you return the call immediately or act too eager, you are confirming that he is the man and validating his ego. If a guy takes time to call you, take time to return his call.

I am a bad game player,
I dont follow the rules...
In fact, I dont even know the rules...
but I know me...And I know what I want...
With me it really is simple...
I always give as good as I get..
So if I get a 100% you best believe I'll try my best to give a 100% back
And if I dont get the best I can from someone...
I bounce.
Simply because...
I dont want to be with someone that doesnt deserve my 100%

3 Understand that it’s the thrill of the hunt. Notice that it’s not about what he can catch. Rather, it's about what he can hunt. In other words, instant gratification is not as satisfying as something that takes some work. If he is only about the hunt, it will be obvious, and you can decide whether or not he’s worth your time.

I get the 1st sentence above.
One way or the other we can all relate to that...
But I think it's something that men should learn to know when its needed to be done...
It doesnt take much to recognise a woman that likes to be chased...
Just as it doesnt take much to recognise a woman that is confident in herself, knows what she is worth and doesnt need to have a man chasing her around before she does what she'll eventually do anyway. :)

That said...

Its not only guys that revel in the "Thrill of the chase"
Some women like to be the 'Prey' to the 'Predator'
I am just not one of them...
Probably something to do with my zilch patient levels. :o)

4. Realize the bottom line is validation. You may wonder why it is that men play games. A huge part of it is that they want validation. Men often get validation through the games that they play. Women tend to make the mistake of trying harder when a guy is playing games. As a result, men get validation through their little games and continue to play them with other women.

Ok, Seriously?!
Validation?!
Now that's just BullShit!
A man that needs to treat women like shit in order to feel validated
Aint no man!
Period!

5. Recognize that games are kept to a minimum when a guy truly likes a girl. This simple little fact is crucial when it comes to weeding out the guys who are looking for a relationship and the guys who are looking for other things. If a guy is really into a girl, he won’t want to play games because he won’t want to risk losing a good thing. If he persists in playing games, it’s either about finding a hookup or validating his ego.

Games sometimes are fun...
Both parties can get a kick outta it...
Knowing when to stop is the key...
Stop at the right time, or one could end up loosing it all...

Like one of my fave people likes to say "Confessions, everything you say comes with a disclaimer"
This is my disclaimer...
Following post has nothing to do with anyone or anything for that matter...
It just is what it is...
A post.

I've a feeling...

I've a feeling I'd give up on Love soon...
It's gotten too complicated and I'm not sure it's worth the hassle anymore
I've a feeling that after some time, I wont have any more fight in me...
I've fought for too long on too many things I've in life and it's about time I stopped
I've a feeling I'd end up with someone I love more than he loves me...
Some past events makes me feel this way
I've a feeling only love, may never be enough...
My past relationships were built on love, when the love evaporated, so did the r'ship
I've a feeling I may never get what I want when it comes to love...

It's all too hard...
This emotion called LOVE...?
It's all too hard...


How do you know...?

How do you know he's the right one?
How do you know when to stop believing he's the right one?
How do you know when to give up on it all and pack up your bags?
How do you know?


I want...Unreservedly

I want to be able to love unreservedly...
I want to be able to show my real emotions unreservedly...
I want to be able to trust unreservedly...
I want to speak out & communicate unreservedly...
I want to be able to perform everything I do in life unreservedly...

Unreservedly...
Only because it's the best way, the only way...
I know how to be...


From life...

Have I always had it too easy?
Was the past I thought was hard and sad actually the happy times?
Have I gotten more than my fair share?
More than I deserve?

Is it now time I gave back all the 'excess' I've received?
Is 'my time' now up?

Have I...?
Is it...?
