TGIF!

Let’s Go!

1. A guy/girl does NOT have long term potential if he/she__________?

2. In your mind, what makes a great girlfriend/boyfriend/significant other?

3. When you fall in love, do you get so caught up in the relationship that you almost lose contact with your friends?

4. Would you ever date your ex again?

5. If you could give advice to an ex…you know…besides DIE…what would it be?

6. When dating, do you normally only date one person at a time, or do you date several people (have “back-ups”) just to play it safe until a commitment is established?

7. Has your parents’ relationship influenced you more as a healthy model to imitate or an unhealthy one to avoid?

8. Men – would you take a birth control pill? Women, would you want your man to?

9. If you were confident that their choice would be a good one, would you be willing to have your parents select your spouse? If not, why?

10. Would you prefer your partner be extremely smart or extremely funny?

Happy Mother's Day
weekend to my mother Donna Dean, my sister Nicole Dahmani, Val, Denise, Dana, Annamaria, Stephanie, all my aunts, and all the women on the blog who are mothers, step-mothers, mother figures, aunties and Godmothers! Be blessed!

1. no long term potential if she can't cook! LOL!

2. a great girlfriend is one who knows when to give me space and knows when I need her.

3. never been so caught up that I lose contact with my boys. I know I may spend more time with her than them, but I never cut them off.

4. I would never date any of my exes again, but some I'd be friends with.

5. I'd tell her to stop being so insecure.

6. If I'm officially "dating" then it's one person at a time. If it's just sex, then several.

7. influenced me in a positive way.
They have a great relationship and are still in love.

8. I'd take it.

9. yes, my mother especially. she's been right about all the women in my life so far.

10. extremely funny. Have to be with a girl who can make me laugh and have a good time.

The Cable Guy said...

OH! and happy mother's day to all the mothers out there - especially mine - and my son's mother.

Stef said...

1. no long term potential if he has no ambition/drive.

2. a great boyfriend supports you in everything you do and listens.

3. If I'm being honest, sometimes that happens. But the trick is to realize it when it happens and make an effort to make time for your friends.

4. There's not one ex I would ever date again, EVER!

5. I'd tell them to get over themselves, because there is always someone out there who will treat you better.

6. I wish I could date more than one guy at a time, but I always wind up spending all my time and energy on one. Then I get screwed! LOL!

7. My parents relationship has taught me what NOT to do.

8. I'd want him to take the pill because I don't want the pressure or responsibility. If anything we'd BOTH take one.

9. I'd let my mom choose, but not my dad.

10. extremely smart. Funny doesn't pay the bills or get you a good job! LOL!

DMoe said...

1. Is insecure and/or cant admit being wrong.

2. Sincerity, compassion and a kind, loving spirit when its most difficult to be so.

3. No.

4. It would take some consideration.

5. Just lighten up and stop taking yourself (and everyone else) so serious...

6. Eventually, dating reaches the point where you can sort out who is who.

7. Unhealthy/avoid.

8. Certainly, but let's talk side effects first.

9. Yes. My dad's got good taste. lol.

10. Extremely smart can be taught anything. Extremely funny will first have to be taught when the f**k NOT to be funny.

Happy mother's day.

1. A guy/girl does NOT have long term potential if he/she__________?
-->smokes or drinks too much...matter of fact, you won't even get in the door with that

2. In your mind, what makes a great girlfriend/boyfriend/significant other?
-->being able to communicate AND listen well...even if you can't "fix" whatever the problem is, just knowing you're willing to listen is a major plus

3. When you fall in love, do you get so caught up in the relationship that you almost lose contact with your friends?
-->never been in love but I have had "loveish" feelings, but I don't dump by girls

4. Would you ever date your ex again?
-->NO

5. If you could give advice to an ex…you know…besides DIE…what would it be?
-->don't lead people on

6. When dating, do you normally only date one person at a time, or do you date several people (have “back-ups”) just to play it safe until a commitment is established?
-->dating...what's that?

7. Has your parents’ relationship influenced you more as a healthy model to imitate or an unhealthy one to avoid?
-->one to avoid...although I was about 6 when they split, so I really don't have much memory of how they were as a couple

8. Men – would you take a birth control pill? Women, would you want your man to?
-->sure, he could... but I'd still take my own precautions. Men can't remember birthdays...will they remember this?

9. If you were confident that their choice would be a good one, would you be willing to have your parents select your spouse? If not, why?
-->No. I'd much rather make my own choices. Although, my Mom is 6 ft, so I KNOW she'd hook me up nicely with a tall brotha!

10. Would you prefer your partner be extremely smart or extremely funny?
-->SMART! You can't build a future on funny (unless, he's Chris Rock)

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY YA'LL!
See ya'll next week...when I'm 32 and fine. LOL

Brooke said...

Happy early Birthday Yolanda!

Jay said...

1. if I can't see her as the mother of my future children.

2. a great girlfriend supports your dreams while helping keep you grounded. She'll be my #1 fan!

3. No

4. They're an ex for a reason.

5. Don't blame every man for your ex man's mistakes.

6. I tend to date one woman at a time. I don't have time to focus on more than one if I'm truly trying to get to know her.

7. My parents have been married forever, HAPPILY...so they're good role models.

8. I'd take the pill if it were safe. Would still use condoms tho.

9. Yes. They'd love Brooke :)

10. Extremely smart. I'm funny, she can be smart :)

Happy Mother's Day to all the mothers out there - especially Annamaria - your first "official" one right? Enjoy!

Jaz said...

1. A guy has no potential long term if he doesn't want kids or wouldn't make a great father. Even if our relationship doesn't work out, I want him to be an excellent father.

2. A great boyfriend is supportive and affectionate.

3. I've done that before and heard an earful from my friends, so I hope to never let that happen again.

4. I would date one ex again, but the rest can kick rocks!

5. I'd tell him to stop being a cheater!

6. I usually date one man at a time, but I always have someone waiting in the wings if I can help it in case dude #1 acts up!

7. Hard to say. Even though they're divorced, I think when they were together they made sure I didn't see all the messy stuff. Their relationship just ran its course I think.

8. I wouldn't ask him because I don't think he'd remember :)

9. If my dad did the choosing, yes.

10. Extremely funny. I want to be with someone I can laugh with.
