18 SNLV – Singledom: Do YOU Date an Easy Guy?

Inspired by blogpost by pseudo_name

Oh well, that’s summing I’ve not been thinking of… MARRIAGE. That word currently equates an expletive in my vocab. I blatantly tell ppl it’s not on my list of things to do. Reading The Post: 24 f single made me stop and reflect.

*Start Flashback*

Flashback 1:

Last month I was invited out to dinner.
I’m 24…but look younger than my 21 yr old sister :D
We’re dining with a couple and their 6 month old baby.
She’s 22, he’s 26… the marriage topic crops up.

What do I say?

  • Nah, I don’t have anyone special?
  • I just got out of a serious relationship and I’m mourning?
  • I’ve dated a string of guys and I can’t afford another failed relationship?
  • Marriage isn’t on my list of things to do?
  • I’ll get married for halaal sex:D :P

‘Don’t wait until you’re 24, or 25 until u decide to settle down’

I look her in the eye, I’m gonna be 25 this year. Of course, she’s embarrassed and tries to cover up. Shame:P

Flashback 2:


My last trip to see my mom. Old relative gives me the third degree of waiting too long, then I’m older than most guys who wanna get married. (Like hello what’s wrong with dating younger guys!)

‘I’m not married coz… YOU aren’t making dua for me!
If u were, I’d find a nice husband. You better start’

Of course by guilting them they start praying a lot for you :P Is that a bad thing. This response shuts everyone up and they don’t ask again :P

Flashback 3:

Family friends’ kid on the phone with me.

MunchKin: Hasina, please don’t get married now. Wait until its school holidays then I can come too.
Me: you’ll be my flower girl?
MunchKin: No, I’ll get tired. I’ll cry and act wild and say the F-word
Me: what’s the F word???
Munchkin: Funny!

LOL, kids say the darndest things.

*End Flashback*

So this brings me to the point… dating or marriage… Wats the difference?

Men are easy!!
its too easy to make them want you n turn them to putty in your hands, REALLY! Its only difficult to find one who’ll marry you :P haha

Maybe I’m very straight forward when I tell guys, ‘If u looking for more than friendship, you’re looking in the wrong place’ or my usual policy of ‘No Ding Ding without the wedding ring’ . – def NOT saying… or saying that i’m doing anything :D non-implicative:P

For those marriage hunting…
The older you are, the more difficult it is to find someone who is interested in you as more than a nice piece ass, the more difficult it is to assume that they’re a virgin (considering Islamic religious constraints)
Virginity, however, isn’t a big issue for me in any case, coz I accept that its so all too easy to be caught up in the passion. Brain shuts down and the rest is instinctive.
I do however find it incredibly offensive when guys (strangers) as if you’re a virgin.
I mean what the hell is it to them anyway?
Even tho I am, do I answer with a yes?
Next question is: how far have u been.
And all I think is:
Get lost loser. Mind your own fucking biznis
(no pun intended) -
Am i being finicky? Or just SA Indian?
Some things are personal.

There’s dating dating and more d a t i n g
Dating as a means to getting to know someone better… a means to an end. End? Marriage? Or Dating indefinitely. etc
I reiterate: men are easy to read. You just need to drop the right signals and hints. And its too easy to attract one. Problem with that most times, is that its never the right one. But it only matters if you want to get married.

Maybe I’m fussy and have too many rules.

You never date an ‘easy guy’, if you play with him –
dating him is pointless coz all he wanted from you initially is a piece of ass, you can have him any way as well as get someone more interesting. Back up Plan? Dick in a glass jar – Break in case of emergency?
If you’re prepared to look beyond that…
Getting to know him and if he does everything the opposite of what he says, or if he violates the CLEARLY STATED comfort zones that you’ve discussed it’ll be just re-iterating that he’s not really the one for you.

Turn offs include: clingy guys, whiney ass klutzy guys, and worse…
the kinda guy with bad self control who think its fine to whisk out his willy when its the first make out session *CRINGE*

For heavensake, kissing doesn’t mean she wants more than that!!!!!!!
At least get to the second make out session!!

  4. Lol@ Flashback 2.
    When I was done with Matric, the most annoying aunty in my mother’s family (We all know the type: She’s an old women who likes to mind everybody else’s business) told me, “don’t study, get married”.
    And at one stage I remembered how they would tease me about me getting married to her gross grandson – and so I replied, “not on your life aunty!” which was quite rude and I got “the big eyes” from mum, but… oh dear..this is going to turn into a post in the comments (because it’s making me think of another rant which I need to get out of my system).

    Everybody wants to hook someone up. They either want to see them happy or something like that.

    People seem to think you are only worth your weight in gold if you are married.

    Which is retarded.

    And yes, guys ARE SO EASY!
    I’m a fussy person when it comes to who I want to marry. And yes, there’s only been two potential candidates in my life…and I’m still rooting for the second one (I’m 22 btw).

    AND I HATE when people, who don’t know you, ask if you’re a virgin…WTF is up with that? HELLO? Really now…F-off! LOL!

    I often want to get married and run away from my town, but I realise that will not be the solution as I still want to do a few things before I get married.

    And tsk on guys that whip out the willy without female permission! (those things are scary btw) LOL (who knows what i’m going to do the night i’m married..hold thumbs for me Lady :P )

    Take the comments and the advice and the pressure to hook up with a pinch of salt – some people want your happiness and some ppl just want an invite to your wedding :P

  5. I could never understand what she was,
    now she has gone i understood she was everything..

    Sometimes we have to take great care in understanding who we are and what we really want…

    Thanks for dropping by my blog :)

  6. easy? no ways!!

  7. I’ve always wondered why women are usually more in control of their sexual desires then men …. All I could think of was that maybe this the way us guys are inherently built :p

    ** Arfeen makes notes for himself … Play hard to get next time he’s trying to woo a girl … and if that actually works then wait till alteast the second make out session to pull his willy out ** lol

  8. so…i see “guys who write crap” is not on your list of turnoffs WOOHOO! :-D

    we aren’t easy, btw. we just pretend to be all stoopid and horny all the time to mislead you…ever thawt of that, huh?
