Lay ups and Rebounds

So........shower head just not doing it for ya? Need something that will grab your cheeks and justify your $20 a month pack of pills? Go for it babe! Everyone needs a rebound. It's like a game of dodge-ball, with your ex as the opposite team. You have all this energy you need to just throw at someone and you want to score the next point before he does not that you would ever tell him or expect him to tell you. Just for your own sake, and gossip.

I suppose rebounds are the dirty little secrets we don't like to admit to as when the night or weekend is over we tend to want to brush it under the rug and move on. It sucks being the rebound when you don't realize you are the rebound but hey it's human nature, we all do it and it's bound to happen. As long as it's not the ex you are on the right track.

It may have been quite some time since your rebound and you may be itching for something a bit more frequent or maybe just a quickie. DO NOT fuck your ex. Doing so throws away so much work and it's like starting all over again. No matter what you say or agree upon all those feelings (good and bad) are brought out. Someone tends to get hurt and why open old wounds? Plus why let him have that much power over you? If you can't help going back to your ex you should make a list of the things you expect out of a man, and then compare it to him. I mean sometimes he may fit the bill but he just doesn't like you. I had a girl cry her eyes out at my Halloween party over this guy. Don't be that girl ever, her friends were completely worried and pissed off and me? Well it was my party, I could be a bitch if I wanted to not to mention it was my house.

Now if you can't help but love him even if he doesn't fit the bill or really like you back or just he really likes you but you two really don't work well. Move to a different city, join the military, chop off your head, or you know, have some self discipline and MOVE ON!!!!

Even if it's an ex from ten ex's ago. Don't do it. Recycling is only good for the environment.

Ragtime Gal

Alright it's time to warn you. You are a single woman with lots of time to hang with friends, but at least half of your friends are in relationships and don't have as much time for you (or you don't care to hang with the chimp hanging off their arm). This leaves the single male friends. Now I warn you, they will think about you naked as that's what men do (they can't help it). They may imagine different ways to convince you to succumb to their masculine fantasies (dirty raunchy fantasies possibly involving boats), and they may pounce you if you leave yourself vulnerable (passed out drunk on the couch, porch or wherever). BE PREPARED!!!! Usually fucking your friends is not a good idea, I mean it works...sometimes...but usually only on the pretense that the fucking is why you are friends. So I suggest avoiding it at all costs. We will get to the “fuck buddy” later.

Now if you are put into an awkward situation and really don't know how to say no and it's beyond changing the subject, mention how much you enjoy dude time with him. Or if you have already slipped and are making out, mention you are riding the cotton pony. Most dudes think that's sick (if you are in a relationship it's different), but some are desperate and may have come all the way over from 4 blocks down the next street with a bag of wine, and will not accept defeat so easily. Well I'll be honest that was me and I caved, more or less because I was intrigued by this obsession and he was a notch I hadn't scored a few years prior, and I really wasn't sure how to say no. Plus, I like to acquire experience. I figured we were past the point of no return anyway and he would leave right after. (insert Phantom music)

Honestly if you really want to keep yourself safe just casually mention that you have a man friend and leave it at that. Yeah you may be lying (or not, research and development baby), but it's for the greater good.

p.s.

He didn't leave he stayed the night, and now we don't really have a friendship.
