Man's Best Friend

So I honestly had an idea for today's blog, I swear I did, but goodness, I seemed to have forgotten it. So I decided to go off on a few different tangents just to...

Wait, I just remembered. Hold on I have to change my title from "Mixed Up" to what you will see when I publish this.

Fellas, what is better than having a dog as your best friend? Having me as your best friend. I gave myself this title a long time ago. I'm not trying to sound cocky, but it's true. The majority of my friends are males. When you get to my inner-circle (which is what I call my friends who have become my second family) there are still more males than females. Now when you get to my best friends (which are those who I tell everything to) you will find that there are 2 females to 1 male there. Hey these cats have gone through a lot with me. I've scared and scarred them...lol. They deserve their positions on my best friends board!

Back to the topic...

So this is how it usually happens for the fellas. You meet this chick called Maxine and perhaps you are attracted to her, but chances are you're just intrigued by her demeanor because she is incredibly laid back and funny. And might I add, she's darn adorable too! Well you get to know her, share a few flirts with her, and next thing you know it you feel completely open and you begin to share some things with her. You tell her about your past, your insecurities, everything because you know that regardless of what you tell her, she will never judge you. Sure she might give you a whack everynow and then because she hates it when you self-depricate around her but regardless of what you tell her she will remain supportive. If you are single, you have a cuddle buddy who will make you feel very special. Sometimes she can make you feel like you are the only guy in the room. If you are dating someone, you have a female to bounce ideas off of. She is there to help you smooth things over with your girl and to even help you pick out a gift or two. And if you need a romantic idea...shoot, you came to the right place! Her last idea dealt with candles, home cooked dinner, a bell, feeding, and singing romantic songs. I bet that woman felt like a queen and thanks to Man's Best Friend, that guy was able to show the woman of his dreams how he felt about her.

You can talk to your best friend at all hours of the day. If you are going through an issue or even if you just want to participate in some mindless banter, you can call her. She will drop whatever it is that she is doing just to give you a laugh. She is willing to cry with you if you need it and she will be the first one to tell you that she is so proud of you when you do something extraordinary. She understands that sometimes a man needs to be a man so she will allow you to do certain things for her (but not too much) and she will even teach you the little things you can do to make woman go, "Oh he is so smooth!"

If you have a low self-esteem or if you have been hurt, her love can cure you of what ails you. Can a dog help you to realize your special talents and help you to maximize them? I doubt that. :-)

And for the women, if your man is getting on your nerves all you have to do is bring me to your house or drop him off at mine. The wives of my guy friends often tell me that. I think I should start to ask for payment...seriously. :-)

Man's Best Friend...

The funny part is I'm not bragging. All of my guy friends are married now, which is interesting because the majority of them are married to women who thanked me for helping/taking care of them. One wife thanked me for helping her husband to become a man, which is cool because I'm not a man but thanks to my father I have learned what a man shouldn't do. :-) So it's interesting for me because whenever I meet a new guy, I often try to determine what my purpose will be in his life. If I can sense that he's struggling with something, I immediately take a step back and get him to trust me and we go from there. I often wonder, because I had to say goodbye to many of my best guy friends (I feel that once they marry, their wife should be their best friend, so my job is over and I just become the old rag doll that is placed in the attic where the moth balls are. Once day while cleaning out the attic they will stumble upon me and reminisce before placing me back in the chest and locking the chest), if the next best guy friend is going to be one that gets to stay... Wouldn't that be interesting? For once, I would help a guy to realize his potential while prepar him for his future mate who would be me. I'm not sure, but that would be odd...just a little. I don't know...hmmmm....

Or when I get married, would there be a woman who I will thank for helping my husband turn into the man that he is. If I'm that woman, I think I will send myself a thank you card and some flowers...

Okay okay, I'm getting silly now...lol. I'll stop. I'm glad I remembered this topic.

Until then my faithful reader (I only have one faithful reader...lol)

Love, Peace, and Hair Grease!
