GUYS: 16 Things You Cannot Say to a Girl After Two Dates

Young man, you’ve had a handful of girlfriends in your short time after college graduation. You thought two of that handful was “the one” that you wanted to spend your life with, such as the likes of The Martins, Paul, June, Timmy and Lassie, The Nelsons, Ozzie, Harriet, Dave and Rick, and the always-attractive and in-control, The Reeds, Donna, Alex, Mary and Jeff—living fantasies on black and white television. What a time to be young and disillusioned in America.

I am not going to veer from the road that I have chosen in order to offer you a mild-hearted rant on The American Illusion pertaining to the sweet-tasting propaganda that led millions of young people to try to pattern themselves after the households of those family-icon’s mentioned above.

The only thing that kept these millions of kids from achieving The American Dream, as it was called before the young adults who missed seizing it, changed the name to The American Illusion, was a well-known neighborhood fixture known as: Reality. He’s a tough old sea dog. Been around since Hell was a campfire, and still going strong hooking kids straight out of high school slicker than Rolan Martin, expert fisherman.

Young man, I’m back to you. After that handful of girlfriends came and went, you thought you had gained a special male-related wisdom from the break-up’s, split-up’s, and leaving to find one’s true feelings. You might have gained “that” inner-sense that squawks like a firehouse alarm (in your head), announcing a “five alarm” fire, just when you begin to think that you were always cut-out for marriage and the domestic life.

And then again, there is a good chance that you haven’t learned diddly.

Just my cynical nature jabbing at you. I do give you credit for always having tip-top personal hygiene, clean hair, teeth and body, plus you have a good eye for shirts, pants, socks and shoes that mostly match. What girl in her matured mind wouldn’t be proud as a peacock to spend your money? And what girl in her capitalistic mind would be honored to receive a checking-account of her own, from you. Just because you love her.

This, my decently-dressed young man with the firehouse alarm in his head, is “the dream,” you can win. Follow this one with a fiery vengeance and leave The American Illusion be. We’ll all sleep better tonight.

In case that you haven’t read one word that I have typed so far, maybe my title of this piece, “16 Things You Cannot Say to A Girl After Two Dates,” will shock some sense into you and I pray to God that you haven’t been saying any of these things to the handfuls of girls who left to find their true feelings in JC Penney.
