LIAR!!!!!

The above clip is... in my opinion...one of the greatest scenes in cinema history.  This little clip of joy PERFECTLY illustrates what i want to discuss for my next post. I know what you're thinking... How can one scene with a running time of 34 seconds sum up the hurt, betrayal, and embarrassment you feel when you think a guy is just starting to take an interest and then you NEVER hear from him again? It's simple. Watch the clip but this time really start to notice the little nuances of the scene in it's entirety 1) she's in bed and clearly looks depressed and distraught-- and you just KNOW that feeling could only come from two things-- a guy, or a death. 2) she's watching a trashy soap opera--amazing  3) her best girlfriends come to her rescue with smoothies and 4) she's eating a box of chocolates. Genius. We have ALLL had those moments of disenchantment. We get so caught up in our fantasy that this guy could be the one (you may have known him 5 minutes or 5 years) and the second you let your guard down- WHAM!  they crush you and your spirits like a butterfly on a goddam car windshield with a very reckless, rude, mean and bad--BAAAADDD man at the wheel.  

Now I don't want for this post to sound bitter like my other ones (which are meant to be bitter and yah i'm definitely bitter) this is more of a shock and confused post. I want to point out that i have it on good authority that i'm not the only one who has experienced this type of rejection. And it happens to all of us on very different levels....and yet, they all seem to end with the same result-- He said he would call, and he doesn't.  The question i want to pose to my male readers (if there are any) is WHY do you feel the need to go out of your way to lie to a girl? Let's say (hypothetically) you and this guy are talking and texting and when it comes time to meet he says "sure, i'll call you tomorrow" and unless i'm looking at my sun dial wrong i believe tomorrow is not TEN DAYS LATER, so i'm pretty sure at this point you are definitely blowing me off and never actually planned on calling me in the first place (and by me i mean us -as in women everywhere) I feel like taking time out of your day to pick up the phone and say 'i'll call you tomorrow' takes a lot more effort than just leaving me the hell alone. 

*** A good rule of thumb gggggentleman***  Try to refrain from all funny, cute or flirtatious comments at any point, and please do not describe yourself as a "really nice guy" if you don't plan on doing anything about it. And ladies i am telling you from experience.. if a guy ever tells you anything that sounds remotely like this.... "But i already told my mom about us" or "Well i will just have to meet your dad, I think he will really like me"  RUN!!!!! run as fast as you can. Trust me, i know that stuff sounds fucking adorable at first, but any guy that knows just what to say and when to say it, or if he's a little too smooth-something is definitely wrong with him. But who can blame me (us) ??? Girls get excited verrrryy easily, and most of the time conversation consists of things that i put in my last post (read below on what NOT to do) so when there is even an inkling that someone gets your humor, and you two sort of just start to click- chances are...he's a psycho who can't commit. 

*Thanks to michelle who helped me convert this video clip,  since i clearly take the short bus to computer school.
