STANDARDS SHMANDARDS

Soooo after long conversations with friends both male and female......I figured out why so many  females complain about the "lack of good males" in Atlanta or anywhere.
FACT:
1. More than 34.8% of the population are homosexual
2. Women outnumber men in the South

Due to the "lack of good men", most females will settle for just about anything because most women would rather have ANYTHING than nothing at all. So stop the male bashing because we accept the BS that guys give us because we want/need a man. You settle for the guy that disrespects you, cheats on you, doesn't have a chivalrous bone in his body, and ultimately doesn't make you happy.....just so you won't feel alone. Because of this EVERY GUY has  a group of females at his bidding because regardless of his lack of respect, current girlfriend, etc....Anything is better than nothing. Yeah this concept is SOOO UNBELIEVABLY WRONG! Here's a few tips to changing our bad habits.

1. Make a list of your standards (and i don't mean those "must love dogs" standards). 
Look at them and keep them. If you don't want to have sex before you are in a committed relationship.....DON'T! I'ts your choice


2. Learn how to be single. There is nothing wrong with not having someone on your arm. It's understandable that you might feel a void when you see your friends coupled up, or you listen to all the love songs, or you see people having their cute "couple moments" in public.....GET OVER IT!


3. Don't force a situation that's not meant to be.  Don't

4. STOP MAKING PLANS. I know most females dream about getting married and having kids at a very young age. Once we get older we set a timeline for these things to happen. Once we get older and we see that things are not moving the way we want them to....We panic. That's when we start looking at the guy we're dating with slightly rose-colored glasses. We subconsciously start making plans and having kids. STOP! Most of the time the guy you're dating is just that....a guy you're dating.

5. LEARN HOW TO TREAT YOURSELF. Most women hate being alone, so we depend on some guy to take us out to a nice restaurant, tell us we're beautiful, buy us flowers....etc. Take yourself out on a date.

6. KNOW YOUR VALUE. Don't wait for a guy to compliment you to feel special.....that's the problem now. A guy says " You're beautiful" and we're so flattered that we'll give the guy practically anything he wants....including the goods.
