  • Blonde or Exotic Looking?

    ..... Red-heads need not apply?



    I stumbled upon this and had to laugh. The shallowness of this Girlfriend Application is only balanced out by it's unfortunate honesty. They seem to cover all the bases. What kind of a first date would it be if he wasn't secretly contemplating if I am opposed to anal, right?

    What kind of questions would you have on your SO Application?

    I don't believe in those. I know that I have no idea what I want, so it's better to wait it out and see how it works.

  • Ich_liebe_michx3@xanga

    wow. i think all guys go through this checklist mentally when they try to get to know a girl. lol 

  • iStephanieMarie@xanga

    Red heads are exotic, aren't they Irish decent? That's exotic in my book.

    Now, what about blonde Norwegians? Exotic and blonde?

  • ThinspoCotore@xanga

    haha blonde or exotic looking, because of course its one or the other =]


    This is really ridiculous.

  • lewk@xanga

    I need to print these and hand them out or something. It would save so much time!

  • icesoul_09@xanga

    Woah! LOL. I'd have to agree with @Ich_liebe_michx3@xanga! I think the guys do a lot of this when hunting for women. :))

  • FairyTalesAndWhiskey@xanga

    So what about blonde AND exotic looking?!


  • TJs_Lady@xanga

    A few questions to add:


    Are you fond of playing mind games?


    Has anyone ever called you controlling and/or obsessive?


    Is sex number one on your agenda?


    Do you prefer being right to being fair?


    Are you in denial of being bi-polar?


    Just my own thoughts... :)

    I like how the NO for the anal question is bolded... like it's trying to point out that it's the right answer.

  • paper_swords@xanga

    other questions:


    does your father own a gun?


    is your mother capable of instilling fear into the bravest of men?


    do you want children?


    do you find it nessessary to be with partnets at all times?

  • diannisforever@xanga

    HAHAh i love how the name is not the first thing, but come to think of it i dont ask a guy his name until after the fact or i hear it the next day.. its embarrassing but its not that important

  • fier_ecneralc@xanga

    @diannisforever@xanga - What's worst is when they tell you their name but you forget it instantly until you hear someone else say it again. 

  • Parsimony@xanga

    I'm surprised about the mom question, I expect it more on the guy's application. 


    Incidentally,  the income of the guys I've dated reflects my own income--low since I was young when I dated all these guys.  When they did (on two occasions make more than me) ie were more financially secure, I think there was some unsaid power shift but as long as they did not flaunt it, it did not affect the relationship at least to my knowledge.

    @TJs_Lady@xanga - I'm sorry, but whats wrong with dating someone who has bipolar? I have type 2, and I find that really offensive. Judge someone on their character and their personality, not on their health. I didn't choose this, just like people don't choose any other disability, like being blind or getting cancer. Its a bummer people like me don't get more sympathy by those ignorant individuals in the public. Besides taking our medication, eating well and exercising, we have no control over our illness.


    I know some people with bipolar disorder act crazy, but not all of us are like that. There are also people that use bipolar as an insult to those that don't have bipolar but take drugs, drink, act provocatively and act badly in general. That is a character flaw. Try having all the chemicals in your brain go crazy and maybe you'll know what an insult it is to compare- as I said before, we did not choose to get this condition! I am sick of people putting me down, feeling run down all the time, going from complete concentration for weeks straight to barely being able to keep my eyes open, then being ridiculed from the public by something I can't control.
  • xsteph_ox@xanga

    @TJs_Lady@xanga - Besides, most people with bipolar disorder seem like regular people most of the time. If you think someone has bipolar just because they are a crazy bitch, you need to do some more reading. I have two friends that also have bipolar disorder and they are the sweetest girls you could ever meet!

  • thinfriendxxo@xanga

    I would ask for first level of education (a.k.a. can/do you read? and if so what are you currently reading).


    and secondly address (proximity is important, both for convenience and to determine the potential of running into each other if it doesn't work out).

  • TJs_Lady@xanga

    @xsteph_ox@xanga - I don't think there's anything wrong with being bipolar. I think there's something wrong with people who *are* bipolar, though, and refuse to admit it... Because then you're left wondering, "What in the world did I do this time???" instead of being aware that there is a medical reason for many of the mood swings and detachments that might occur in a relationship.


    Like G.I. Joe once wisely said, "Knowing is half the battle." 


    The comment wasn't meant to be offensive.

  • xsteph_ox@xanga

    @TJs_Lady@xanga - Ok, but you shouldnt have to spill all that stuff on the first date. My sister told me never to tell someone I had bipolar until they knew, liked and respected me as a person first, or I would be judged on my disorder not as a person. Most people would say I'm a wonderful girl, but its unevitable that I will go through many ups and downs in my life, I will need help, and I might even get checked into a mental facility when I can't handle life. Its not my fault though. I will still try my hardest.


    I think someone should also take their pills as you said, but someones health is their business, until they are in a serious relationship, or unless the other person has a serious STD and they were planning to have intercourse. I would sue someone if they gave me HIV because they had sex with me without telling me- that would never happen to me though because I don't plan on having sex until I get married.
    That being said, my friend has had constant problems because of her bipolar because her pills aren't right for her. There doesn't seem to be anything that can help her- shes put on about sixty pounds in the last year, shes all over the place, takes drugs and drinks and shes recently been hospitalised because she tried to overdose. I think people with bipolar are really brave because we have to deal with such extreme emotions all the time. It would take a special person to marry someone with bipolar, but it doesn't mean they should be cast aside or seen as undateable, because we are all individuals and can't be clumped together in one category.
    Thanks for clarifying =)
  • TJs_Lady@xanga

    @xsteph_ox@xanga - To further clarify, I have bipolar II. lol. And while I may not disclose it on the first date, I make sure it's clear before pursuing a relationship in any form, because I feel it's just as important as letting the other person know that you have children, are a smoker, or are missing a leg. It's pertinent information that may turn some people off from the get-go, so certainly it's important to share before entering a relationship. Which is what the original post was about -- "Application for a Girlfriend".

  • xsteph_ox@xanga

    @TJs_Lady@xanga - I have type II as well. I don't think its important during the dating stage. Maybe about the same time as "I want you to be my boyfriend/girlfriend" stage. The part where you decide whether you want to be together or not.
