Very Loud

“When I took the girl out on our first date, I noticed something in her that I did not like. I did not like how she was very loud. This took away from her sex appeal. She had a loud, booming voice, which took away the femininity. She reminded me of some of my loud guy friends.”
The clamor was not just in her voice, but in her laughter too. It echoed through the restaurant, drawing stares from other patrons. I felt as though we were on stage, not on a date. I appreciate a woman who can express joy freely, but there's a delicate balance between being vivacious and being overwhelming. Her loud presence overshadowed the subtle romantic ambiance I was aiming for, and it was hard to feel any chemistry over the decibel level of our conversation. Could this just be nerves, or is it a permanent feature? That's something to ponder before asking her out again.

“I hate when a woman acts as if she owns me. I remember my second girlfriend. I regretted her moving in with me. The moment she moved in with me, even though I was paying the bills, it was as if it were her house. She even took away my video games as if I am some kid.”

“There we were, sitting there in the middle of our dinner when she started talking about her menstrual cycle! Okay, am I the only guy that found this one a bit odd? I am all for being open with one another, but do I really need to hear about the menstrual cycle as I am eating?”

“I have had girlfriends before who had what I like to call princess syndrome. The girl was so demanding and she was just hard work. Needless to say, she was not worth the trouble.”

“So, I’m sitting there with my girlfriend and she has to go to the bathroom. On the way from the bathroom, I hear her laughing loudly and notice her with another guy. Not only was she laughing with him, but she was practically all over him! I couldn’t believe she would do that to me. I never flirted with another girl while in a relationship, but here she was, doing it to me.”

“Oh yes, I remember this one time when I had a girlfriend who always had to be the center of attention, no matter where she was. She always wore inappropriate clothing just so she could stand out.”

“I do not like it when a girl is fake. I hate when a girl pretends to be something she isn’t. I have had my share of experience with fake girls. Oh and while I am on the topic of fake girls, I hate when they have plastic surgery. It’s just … fake.”
