TOP TEN TRAITS A MAN SHOULD HAVE
(from a lesbian to man)
1. Quit whining
I absolutely detest men who whine. The cost of petrol has gone up? Don’t drive. Can’t cope with your workload? Bring it up to Management or quit. Singaporean women are too materialistic? Don’t date them, live up to their expectations, or go buy yourself a wife from some third world country. Quit whining and get with the fucking programme. Do you need the government or your mummy to tell you what to do?
me - **rolls eyes** i think i talked about this in a previous entry before
2. Ladies first
Entrances, food orders, conversations. A man with manners would let a lady go first. Just in case we have pea brains reading this, perhaps I should elaborate further:
- Entrances:
Doors aren’t really that heavy, trust me. It won’t break your arm opening one for a lady to enter first.
- Food orders:
Here’s where a lot of gentlemen wannabies go wrong. It’s your job to order for the lady before yourself, and not have her cite her own order before yours.
- Conversations:
There is a bloody reason why the ladies always complain that you never listen.
3. A man of his word
If you make a promise, you keep it no matter what. A man worthy of his cock knows that actions speak louder than words.
4. I believe this is yours…
The equation is fairly simple. Your decision = the consequence = your responsibility. Unfortunately, given how spoilt rotten our precious sons are compared to our second class daughters, I don’t see a lot of local men with balls to accept responsibilities for their own actions.
me - speaking of this, it reminded me of this close friend of my sister who just went for an abortion recently. Her THIRD abortion. Yes. And I have talked to her before. She's really a nice girl. And golly fu*king shit I dont know why she's always stuck with crap - guys who make her go through the pain of abortion and still thinks it's okay. I mean seriously, if a guy make you go through this shit, it is time to ask for a break-up.
5. Don’t make someone else do your work
I detest skivers, both men and women alike. If you’d like for someone else to do your work, have the decency to pay for his or her time. And don’t you dare take his or her credit.
6. Be decisive
Make a decision and stick by it. Don’t be a wuss and spend 20 minutes wondering if you should buy a pink or blue Paul Smith shirt. How the hell are you supposed to lead a company if you can’t even decide on the color of a damn shirt?
me - geesh. i am damn guilty of indecisiveness
7. Admit to mistakes
Only when you recognize your shortcomings then can improvements begin. And that’s why a good amount of us stay in the same vicious cycle making the same mistakes time and time again.
8. Rolling your own moolah
A real man does not take pride in driving daddy’s sexy Maserati; he knows he didn’t earn it. A real man takes pride in making 1/10th of what his dad makes, only because he has done so on his own.
9. David Beckham effect
I have no idea what warrants a man to demand any respect from me should he spend more time in front of the mirror than I do. Unless of course, he is gay. If that’s the case, I’d probably want to pick up new styling tips from him.
me - david Beckham effect's acceptable for me though. lols. we could go shopping together.
In fact I like guys who are aware of grooming.
10. Not everyone’s as encouraging as your mother
There will be times when you, your work, or perhaps even your uglyfuck face, get criticized by others. Don’t get personal, get even. Prove them wrong. Else, pay a visit over the weekend to your mother and have her reboot your ego system.
me - like what i told wen. I want guys who have confidence of themselves. A little higher than an average guy. But I can't stand the egoistic guys. But ego nd confidence tend to overlap. No wonder I'm still single. lols.
