    Mantra Change

    Oh shit, I've totally got to change my current inner dialogue.
    From: he's sexy, he's a damn good bass player, he's funny, he's open, he's got passion, he's real, he's got perspective.
    To: Fuck, he's 24, he lives with his parents, he can't spell, he works at the-enemy-of-enemies-Walmart (but in produce, isn't that cute?) And he's 24.

    Help.

  • Dude, I totally don't see the problem here.

    First off: I live in my parents basement and can't spell--so I take offense to both those things bothering you :)
    Secondly: Bass players totally have to take any job they can get (ie, evil walmart)
    Thirdly: the 24 thing? Two of my very good guy friends are dating 23 and 24 year olds. In their case, I really do think they have a daddy complex, BUT--man--I want my thirty year old girl friends to be dating 24 year old guys. Age is relative. Unless, of course, we're talking about frat boys. That's different.

    Why not? life's short--and it's rare to find funny, passionate, perspective all in one place.
  • But, Rach, it is like the Frat boys -- that was at least 3 years ago!?! Did those other friends of yours just turn THIRTY?! Cuz it just doesn't feel natural. I'd much prefer to be with an older guy. I mean, this guy, but older. Christ.
  • That wasn't a well-thought out response: you can spell, or at the very least, have the grammar/vocabulary/lack of overused punctuation, to make up for it. You're back at your parents only after having *lived* around and discovered more of yourself. Walmart is still Walmart, even if he bashes it with me. And, daddy complex? I'm pretty sure I might have one of those. Oh, and frat boy: He actually said, "But next month I'll be 25" in the same enthusiastic "I'm 21 and half" frat-boy manner! Poor, sweet boy!
  • Hahahahah.

    And WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?
  • hahaha...this is funny.

    I also like that it's all Rachel's on this post so far. Yeah, no extra a for either you.

    Anyhow I have to respond.

    1. no it's not like the frat boys, at all. And I'll just state that as a truth. (but you totally made me laugh when I remembered the age statement thing)
    2. YES these male friends of mine are 30--one will be 31 in a month and the other will be 31 in august. Their girlfriends are 23--maybe 24?
    3. I still say age is relative...if you enjoy him for now, don't sweat it, dude. Call him your trophy boy or something. One of the guys that's dating a younger girl is totally in love and is considering the 'm' word--but is worried he'll get bored with her. He won't know until he lets it play out more, eh? In all his problems with her, it was never "But she's 23!"--there were other issues, mostly having to do with the fact that she's had less experiences than him, not the actual age difference. Guys don't let the age thing be such a big deal. I suggest you don't either.

    And, finally I know you think you want an older man, but maybe he's an old man in a young man's body, hmmm? (Not something I'd ever sat about any of the frat boys, just so you know, okay?) It's just one of those things that happen. One of my friends LOVES tall men--totally digs them. Always had tall boyfriends. Now she's been married for 5 or 6 years to someone shorter than she. She wanted a tall guy, but she got a short one. And loves him dearly.

    So there.

    actually, I'm just trying to get the point across to you to not worry about this or let it bother you so much. Have fun with it, eh?
  • @RaLuvsMeat - 

    oh and she's been on facebook with everyone else.
  • @ Fodawg -- Yes, but it seems to work when it's the guy that is so much older, not vice versa (something about maturity levels balancing out). Though he did say one of his friends says he has an old black soul, ha! I think it's the jazz thing. Anyway, point taken. My last fling with a young guy (remember, the one I stole the virginity from?!) didn't go so hot. So, forgive me if I have concerns. I'll keep you posted. His pure sexiness might win out for now...
