Sometimes I really hate dating. It's not so much the date itself (unless I've been on a string of bad dates), but the getting ready part of dating. Guys, do you realize how much women put into getting ready for a date? In the shower, we have to shave, wash, exfoliate, and use the nice smelling shampoo so our hair smells yummy. Out of the shower, we moisturize, wax, tweeze, and pluck among other things.
Then we antagonize over what we will wear. Because we want to look nice for the guy we are going out with, but there can't be too much cleavage because it might read wrong. We have to pick something that will work for what we are going to do on our date. Not to mention the picking out of a bra and panties. Should they be sexy in case for some reason we end up in bed together that night? Or should we just wear our plain old non-sexy panties so we can be sure we don't end up in bed together? Then we have to choose the accessories, shoes, and how we want to wear our hair. So we move back into the bathroom where we curl, comb, fluffy, spray, and God only knows what else to our hair. Then it's time to add makeup, nail polish, perfume, and anything else that will help us look and smell good. We get into our clothes and make sure we look smashing.
We do this because we want to look good for you. We want you to smile when you see us or maybe make your jaw drop. So it really ticks us off and hurts our feelings when you don't even acknowledge how nice we look. Or even give an appreciative smile when you see us. Is it so hard to say we look nice? Trust me, if you say we look nice or even mention a specific thing you like about the way we look, you get brownie points.
That is all.
lol this is probably what I miss most about dating!! I still take my time doing everything to get ready -- it seems to be getting worse as I get older & the longer the bf and I date.. thought it was supposed to go opposite of that
