The "rules for dating me" :

If I take you out to a nice dinner every now and then, it does NOT mean
I hate your cooking.

If I cook dinner for you, it still does NOT mean I hate your cooking. I
can cook pretty well, imagine that.

If I give you a massage, pour you a bath, or otherwise pamper you when
you get home, it is not because I'm a wuss or a sycophant or
submissive-wannabe. You probably work harder than I do, and I like to
please my girl. Deal with it.

If I say I want to spend time just cuddling, I'm NOT necessarily on the
make for more, nor am I gay.. For that matter, if I do eventually want
more, is being loved really the worst that can happen to you?

If I say I enjoy talking about 'little things', maybe I actually care
what you think.

If I open doors for you, it doesn't mean I think you're helpless. I've
actually been slapped for opening doors for "liberated women" who have
lost all sense of common courtesy. Chivalry doesn't mean patronizing
now any more than it did when people were smart enough to know it's a
sign of respect..

If I listen to what you have to say, and actually give an intelligent
response, it's not because I am trying to outsmart you, "fix" your
emotions, or show off. Again, maybe I care what goes on under your
hair.

If I spend more time watching you than watching football, it could be
that I like looking at you, or it could be that I hate football, but
most likely it's both.

And no, not liking football does NOT make me gay.

Being able to match and complement colors, and paint a room other than
plain white, does NOT make me gay.

If I suggest that making love should take longer than a commercial
break, and shouldn't have to wait for one, please try to contain your
shock and disbelief.

If I give you flowers completely out of the blue, it does not mean you
should start hunting for what I did wrong.

And finally, if I speak to the female half of the population, it should
not set you into semi-homicidal jealousy...

OK, reader... If you are a lady who wants to be treated the way you
should be, and think you know how to treat a man in return, step right
up and chat with wolfnrose2 on y. If you don't believe the man above
exists, I assure you that I am NOT perfect, but I do try. If you think
you are up to the challenge, a gentleman looks forward to hearing from a
nice lady.
