Let me be completely and utterly honest when I tell you that when I listen to this song and scream the words "TROUBLE, TROUBLE, TROUBLE", I completely let my inner feminist out, and convince myself that all men suck. Today, however, I want to tell you that its not all boys fault( well, not all the time), ITS THE GIRLS FAULT TOO.
So today, I dedicate this post to my new friend Brock, and for his words of wisdom, and apologies - for his gender. Because of him, I wanted to publicly apologize for all of the stupid things that my gender has done, and continues to do daily.
Here we go.
I want to apologize for the girls who have, and continue to blow off nice boys. The nice boys who plan meaningful, fun, good dates - but then receive a text messaging 15 minutes prior to the date saying " I'm sorry, I'm sick,- I have to cancel" Or " They called me into work, sorry." We all know its a lie, and I'm sorry you have to deal with it.
I apologize for the girls who text, act snooty, or flirt with other boys while on a date with YOU.
Or the ones who can't carry on a conversation about something more meaningful than retail therapy, celebrities, or their current obsession with eyelash extensions.
I apologize for the girls who don't have ambition worth beans. The ones who have never had a job, nor will they ever have a job. The ones who don't try to make themselves better, or gain any type of education, skill or meaning; or who play "dumb" because they think its cute.
I apologize for the girls who only talk about themselves. About their hair, their clothes, their friends, their problems or better yet, their EX'S- and never talk about you.
I apologize for the girls who don't say thank you. The ones who don't appreciate the boy who opens the door for them, who buys them dinner, gives them a sincere compliment, or who just listens.
I apologize for the girls who expect you to take care of them. Who have no independence, and needs a dad more than a boyfriend.
I apologize for the ladies who treat themselves like a slut, and who don't value themselves. The girls who take pictures of their body parts and send them to everyone, the girls who wear risque clothing on a daily basis and accepts the fact that she will never get anything better than a boy who has no education, passions, or value - because she doesn't believe she can get better.
I apologize for the CRAZY women out there. The ones who are insanely jealous, self righteous, demanding, bossy or who nag you to death, and make you feel like its all your FAULT( all the time).
I apologize for the girls who don't say I'm sorry when they are wrong.
For the girls who make you feel un-masculine and who put you down with a sarcastic tone every time.
Or for the girls who are simply unkind, rude, and tactless.
For the girls who only want you for your money, good looks or anything else she finds valuable, and uses you like a piece of meat.
The ones that break up with you over text, and hooks up with your friend/ or another boy just days after she broke your heart and shamelessly puts it all over Facebook.
And last but not least...
I apologize for the girls who make it harder for you to be a good moral guy, a girl that tempts you to walk on the wild side, and teaches you to treat religion like its a joke. I'm sorry for the girls who try to reel you in with Sex, and make light of families and morality. The girls who don't know what it takes to be good, even if it hit them in the head with a stick. The ones who make you change... and I'm not talking about in a good way.
Boys, don't put up with this kind of behavior. In all reality, this is girl behavior not women behavior. A good women wouldn't treat you that way. So aim higher, and I promise you'll find the Golden ticket to happiness. A good person who is respectful of you- your relationship- and her relationship with God.
Isn't that what you want?
Until later... xoxo Amanda. :)
